Another week is in the books. Here are the Top 10 things we learned from a college fantasy football perspective.
1. Boom Is Back
Despite stories that he would play primarily as a back up on Saturday, Ohio State running back Boom Herron made his triumphant return to the playing field wih a stellar 23-114-1 performance.
2. We Hold Our Collective Breath For Latts
Another week, another star goes down with a knee injury. Is Marcus Lattimore's injury just a sprained knee as originally reported, or something worse?
3. Unlucky Ducks?
First LaMichael James was lost to a nasty dislocated elbow, then Duck fans watched in horror as their staring QB went down in a heap las night. Darron Thomas apparently injured his knee. While he didn't return to the game (and the game was very much still in doubt at the time of his departure), he was jogging along the sideline during and after the game.
4. Sun Belt Blues
FAU, North Texas and Troy combined for 20 points on Saturday. If you had Alfred Morris (14-27-0), Lance Dunbar (19-53-1) or Corey Robinson (129 pass yards, 0 TD, 2 INT) in your starting lineups, you were none too pleased with their outputs.
5. The Immaculate Reception
One pass completion for the Buckeyes? Really? Just when we thought the Big Ten couldn't sink any lower on the fantasy barometer...
6. Jeff Fuller Who?
Texas A&M WR Ryan Swope erupted for an 11-206-4 performance.
7. New Terp In Town
Maryland QB C.J. Brown made his first start count on Saturday night, racking 162 yards and a TD on the ground to go along with 177 and 3 scores via the air. The waiver wire hawks await Mr. Brown.
8. Mike Ball Disappoints... Again
Nevada pasted New Mexico 49-7, scored six rushing touchdowns, and all RB Mike Ball contributed was 5-16-0? Is the ankle still lingering or is he in danger of losing his job?
9. No LaMichael, No Problem
We told you not to worry about Kenjon Barner and De'Anthony Thomas this week and to get him in your starting lineups. Barner came through with a sparkling 31-171-1 statline, while the Black Mamba did his thing scoring 2 TDs on 97 total yards.
10. Stanford Tight Ends Continue To Roll
Seriously, this is getting ridiculous. Stanford has 19 TD passes on the year, and 15 of them have gone to tight ends.
