They're calling for 5 to 8 inches of snow here in Central Pennsylvania on Saturday.  Should be the perfect day to kick back with a sixer and glue ourselves to the TV for 12-plus hours of college football goodness.  Oh wait, we do that EVERY Saturday!

Here are ten players we'll be watching closely this weekend:

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. 

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.

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.

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?

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

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?

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?

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?

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.

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?
