Each Friday, we provide a list of some things to watch for on the Saturday ahead.  Now, it's time to look back and see what we learned.

1.  Denard Robinson vs. Purdue
Shoelace was banged up in his last game, but he's had a bye week to rest up. There are whispers that he may be spelled by Devin Gardner in this one, much to D-Rob owners chagrin. 

What We Learned: D-Rob had a relatively quiet game, but it wasn't due to a lack of playing time or a previous injury.  It was due to the Wolverines rediscovering the running back position: Fitz Toussaint rushed 20 times for 170 yards and 2 scores.  A trip to Iowa is up next for Shoelace.

2.  The Persa/Colter Split
Kain Colter was outstanding playing both the QB and WR positions against Penn State a week ago.  So when Dan Persa went down with an apparent ankle injury late in the game, the selfish fantasy part of me was excited to see what Colter could do against Indiana.  However, Persa vows he'll be on the field tomorrow.  If Colter sees enough touches, he could be a great fantasy option.

What We Learned: The split was still in full effect.  Colter passed for 38 yards and 2 scores, he rushed for another 38, and he caught 6 balls for 115 yards.  All the while, Dan Persa chalked up 261 yards and 3 passing touchdowns. 

3.  A.J. Graham vs. UAB
Graham has produced in each of his last two games.  Can he make it three in a row against a Blazer team ripe for the picking?  If so, then he'll officially become a viable fantasy option the rest of the way.

What We Learned: Graham took full advantage of this juicy matchup, passing for 239 yards and 5 touchdowns.  He's becoming a reliable start in most formats.

4.  Cody Wilson vs. Akron
Wilson was one of the bigger busts of the season through six weeks.  But in his last two games, he's started to warm up.  Will he real Cody Wilson please stand up?

What We Learned: The unproductive Cody stood up this week.  Four catches for 39 yards and no scores.

5.  Alex Carder vs. Ball State
Carder has burned fantasy owners the past two weeks with abysmal performances.  This match up looks great on paper.  Can he take advantage or will his downward spiral continue?

What We Learned: Carder broke out of his slump with a monster game, passing for 402 yards and 2 TDs to go along with 36 rushing yards and a score on the ground.

6.  The Weather in State College
Snow is a possibility for this 3:30pm ET kickoff.  How would the white stuff affect the fantasy prospects of Nate Scheelhaase, A.J. Jenkins, Silas Redd and company?

What We Learned:  Well, the weather certainly didn't help either offense.  And the result was a final score of 10-7.  But Silas Redd was undaunted.  He racked up his fifth straight 100 yard game, racking up 137 yards and the team's only touchdown.

7.  Darius Johnson vs. Tulsa
D.J. left the game early in the first quarter last week with bruised ribs.  He's expected to play in this one. Will he be 100 percent in a game that could be a shootout?

What We Learned:  He sure didn't perform as if he was 100 percent healthy.  3 catches for 2 measly yards?  Ouch. 

8.  Juron Criner vs. Washington
Just when we were about to kick him to the curb for the season, Juron Criner stepped up and had a monster performance.  The Huskies defense is not exactly stout.  Can the inconsistent Criner slap together two great outings in a row?

What We Learned:  Yes indeed. Criner caught 11 balls for 118 yards and 2 touchdowns.  It looks as if Criner is back to being, well, Criner.

9.  Malcolm Brown vs. Kansas
Alright rookie, time to step up.  Brown has gotten better as the season has gone on.  Kansas' Swiss cheese defense presents a great opportunity for this prep superstar to finally make his mark on the world of college fantasy football.

What We Learned:  Brown came through for owners with a solid 28 rush, 119 yard, 2 touchdown performance.

10.  Malcolm Agnew vs. Utah
The oft-injured freshman is healthy at the current time.  He rushed for over 100 yards last week before being pulled for a potential concussion.  Can he make it through 60 minutes of football unscathed?

What We Learned:  From what we can tell, he wasn't injured in this one, but Agnew only gained 26 rushing yards on 9 carries.  He also had a key fumble at the goal line as he was trying to dive over the pile for a touchdown.
