Star freshman WR and punt returner Trent Mosley will miss multiple games with a knee injury, USC announced on Thursday. USC faces Rutgers this week, Oregon the week after, and Washington after that. There is no current timetable for Mosley's return, but he could be out for the Penn State game as well on October […]

As if Week 1 wasn't crazy enough, Week 2 brought it as well. The Ohio State and Texas game was everything we thought it would be and more. Two more FCS teams won over FBS teams. The crazy part is that both of them were favored. A top-10 team fell to an unranked opponent, and […]

We had fewer FBS teams playing FCS opponents last week. That is a continuing trend. Only 18 teams play FCS teams this week. Of those, most of them aren't worth taking the chance with. West Virginia and Nebraska both had good weeks last week, but the other three offenses highlighted here only put up between […]

We went from two perfect entries and 24 entries scoring 50 or more in Week 1 to a rough Week 2 for everyone in the RotoBaller Reader's Group. "protonjim" led the way this week with 38 points. Chad Monkey Shindig tallied 36. 50 Centi was the only other entry with 35 points. Chad Monkey's big […]

Week 1 wasn't a disappointment by any means, but it barely prepared us for what Week 2 had in store. The Ohio State-Texas game was everything it was supposed to be. ¡El Assico! always delivers, even in prime time. Oregon lost to an unranked team for the first time under Dan Lanning. Maybe John Mateer's […]

You're not done yet, are you? It's not over until we say it is! "Pac-12 After Dark" is back and maybe better than ever! That's going to give us a lot of interesting late-night DFS slates on DraftKings during the 2026 season. There are only four games on this one, but we've got a lot […]

DraftKings' night slates feature the marquee prime-time matchups in a standalone slate, as opposed to FanDuel adding all of the biggest games to one monster slate. I've had more success in the slightly smaller DK primetime slates for whatever reason. The monster of the week between Ohio State and Texas is on here. Some genius […]

We have a nice 12-game main slate. Happy birthday to me! I'll spend my day watching football and participating in this nice slate of games. Unlike FanDuel, DraftKings separates the day and night games, meaning we have more and sometimes better games to choose from. Sure, something is enticing about having both Oklahoma-Michigan and Ohio […]

What can happen in Week 2 to top Week 1? I have my ideas, but I don't want to speak them into existence. There are 86 total games. I get 49 FBS vs. FBS games to pick for my birthday, and I've got a giant hole to dig myself out of. I'm ready! I only […]

For the second straight week, we have a Border War in college football. This first one was a blast, with Colorado State winning the Bronze Boot for only the third time in the last 11 years. This Border War was the longest continuous rivalry in college football history until Missouri left the Big 12 after […]

We expected some crazy things in Week 1, but Week 1 nearly broke the internet. The officiating and "clock management" by the officials in the Big House was a black mark on the week. Whether they're right or not doesn't matter. The NCAA won't do anything about it. And just like that, Lane Kiffin wasn't […]

We have 57 entries in the RotoBaller ESPN College Pick 'em group this season. We didn't have our first perfect week in the RotoBaller group last year until Week 5. Three entries were perfect in Week 1 this year! Dr.SteveBrule, Brave and Crazy!, and Mike got all 10 picks right. MIZ#2 only missed the one-point […]

I hope you all enjoyed those easy matchups out there in Week 1. It gets a little tougher for most teams in Week 2. Arizona State's offense, which was in this article last week, led all teams with 32.25 fantasy points. This was a case where piling on yards really helped the team's offensive score. […]

All week leading up to our Labor Day smorgasbord of games, the narrative was that there weren't any "marquee" matchups. The Ole Miss-Louisville game was the only game featuring a ranked matchup. This is why we don't listen to narratives. What we got was UMass winning a game for the first time in 22 months...over […]

Mississippi quarterback Trinidad Chambliss opened his 2026 season with a 41-38 win over Louisville on Sunday night. Chambliss completed 21-of-36 passes for 336 yards and three touchdowns. Chambliss also carried the ball nine times for 60 yards and a touchdown. The bad news is that Chambliss lost a fumble for the first time since joining […]

Star running back Kewan Lacy (leg)  left the game for Mississippi early in the third quarter of the 41-38 win over Louisville. Lacy ran for 61 yards and a touchdown before exiting the game. During the broadcast, it was thought that Lacy had an ankle bruise. Coach Pete Golding confirmed after the game that Lacy […]

This is the last Sunday without the NFL, so college football decided to hold three marquee games, all at NFL Stadium. This is one of the few good ideas that the NCAA has had in the last decade. We have the Apple Cup at Lumen Field, Louisville and Mississippi from Nissan Stadium in Nashville, and […]

Penn State sophomore wide receiver Koby Howard caught six passes for 161 yards and a touchdown in Penn State's 45-0 crushing of Marshall in Week 1. Howard, one of the few Penn State holdovers when Matt Campbell came to town, only caught seven passes for 133 yards in his true freshman season last year. Despite […]

Oklahoma State wide receiver transfer Gavin Freeman caught 12 DJ Lagway passes in his debut for Baylor. Freeman's 12 receptions were tied for the most in Week 1 with Miami's Malachi Toney. Freeman amassed 154 yards and a touchdown on those 12 receptions. Toney is rostered in 100% of leagues. Freeman is only on 4% […]

Kentucky quarterback transfer Cutter Boley made a big splash in the desert on Saturday in his Arizona State debut. Boley completed 21 of his 27 passes for 387 yards and six touchdowns in Arizona State's season-opening win over Morgan State. He set a career high in both yards and touchdowns in his first game in […]

Mississippi State quarterback Kamario Taylor had a huge showing in his 2026 debut. Taylor completed 22-of-34 passes for 354 yards and four touchdowns. He also carried the ball six times for 59 yards and another touchdown in Mississippi State's 62-13 blowout win over Louisiana-Monroe. The Bulldogs finished with 762 total yards. That set a new […]

Wisconsin running back transfer Dilin Jones has claimed the LSU RB1 job. Reports stated that Jones and Harlem Berry would be in some kind of timeshare heading into Week 1. Berry had just four carries for nine yards. Jones led LSU with 23 carries. He tied for the yardage lead (113) with QB Sam Leavitt […]

Sophomore quarterback Mason Heintschel tied a Pittsburgh program record with seven touchdown passes in the Panthers' 59-14 thumping of Miami of Ohio. Heintschel's performance tied Pete Gonzalez, who threw seven touchdowns against Rutgers in 1997. All seven touchdowns went to different receivers. Heintschel finished with 453 passing yards on 31 completions. Heintschel was only drafted […]

When we last saw LSU quarterback Sam Leavitt, he was battling a Lisfranc injury during the 2025 season. On Halloween, he decided to have surgery and end his season. He became the prize of the transfer portal. Leavitt's return to the field was a triumphant one as LSU blew out Clemson 51-10 behind his strong […]

You're not done yet, are you? The day just started 10 hours ago! It's not over until we say it is! "Pac-12 After Dark" is back and maybe better than ever. We've even got a throwback to the old Pac-12 After Dark with UCLA heading up to Cal. Central Michigan heads to New Mexico for […]

Quarterback Jayden Maiava put together another fantastic game to lead No. 14 USC to a 39-0 win over Fresno State. Maiava completed 23-of-25 passes for 349 yards and three touchdowns. Despite the return of star WR Tanook Hines, USC freshman Trent Mosley had another big game with four receptions for 104 yards and a pair […]

Duke quarterback transfer Darian Mensah led the No. 7 Miami Hurricanes to a big 45-6 win over Stanford at The Farm on Friday night. Mensah completed 27-of-30 passes for 401 yards and five touchdown passes in Miami's big win. 234 of those yards and three of the touchdowns went to star receiver Malachi Toney. Mensah […]

DraftKings' night slates often feature the marquee prime-time matchups in a standalone slate. FanDuel adds them all to the main slate and leaves off other good games in the afternoon. DraftKings setting up the slates like this is part of the reason that I play almost exclusively on DK now. Most of the good games […]

We've got the first of 14 monster DraftKings slates that will grace our Saturday afternoons all season long! We've got some ranked teams in action such as Texas, Indiana, and Ohio State. We've got some rebuilt teams such as Penn State and Auburn. Oregon paid Boise $2.5 million so they wouldn't have to go play […]

The Week 0 appetizer was a good one. We had 11 games on Thursday and eight more on Friday. Only 72 more games to go for our Week 1! The bad news is that only 33 of those are FBS vs. FBS contests. I won't pick FBS vs. FCS games. The lines are usually really […]
