Fantasy College Football CFB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (10/2/17)
We're not big on apps. We're old school. Which means, of course, we're old. But we're also big on on all types of football. Which is why we were in Glasgow yesterday. So while we may not always feel comfortable with technology, certain apps--we won't mention any names--allowed us to keep up with goings-on on […]
Fantasy College Football CFB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (9/25/17)
Stop us if you've heard this one before, but close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. Well, at least in hand grenades. Some of our top teams had some close calls this week, but only one fell victim and dropped from our rankings, and it wasn't even close. Here's our Top 10 as of […]
Midwest Region Overview: Tournament Picks & Bracket Predictions
March Madness is officially here and RotoBaller will be giving a full breakdown on each tournament region, including some potential sleepers and busts. Here we'll be taking a look at the Midwest Region. I'm here to tell you some teams that I believe in - this should help you make the right tournament bracket decisions. Below I analyze the top […]
Fantasy College Football CFB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (12/5/16)
In all the talk this weekend about point spreads and margins of victory--with both being the key for some teams with BCS playoff hopes--it's worth reminding you, dear reader, that apparently it's okay to openly discuss wagering on college football, as long as it involves betting on the games, and not on individual player performance. […]

Ohio State presents college football with a very modern problem. The Buckeyes, at least if the Twitter-sphere is to be believed, will likely play for a national crown but won't play for a Big Ten championship, and have said they had no interest in playing for the conference title, preferring instead to rest a week longer […]

If we could skip the second and third spots in our Top 10 and rank teams #1 and then #4 through #12--without you, dear readers, thinking we were sniffing too much glue--then by gum we would do it. That's how strongly we feel that only one team, Alabama, has proved on a consistent basis that […]

If there's one lesson to be learned from the events of this past week, it's that we should not put a lot of credence into polls. And no, we're not talking about what happened on November 8. The tops of the BCS, the AP and the Coach's polls were all left in tatters after a […]

You don't have to be a history major to know that Ben Franklin once said: "In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes." With all due respect to Franklin, we'd add one thing to his list: that Alabama, Clemson and Michigan are the top three college football teams in […]
Fantasy College Football CFB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (10/31/16)
It may be Halloween today but, for us, the real scary stuff happened on Saturday. That's because a few teams that had been the bedrock of our Top 10 rankings--and a few others who had been a gleam in our eyes--did the unthinkable and unforgivable... they lost. By the time Brian Hill (a borderline […]
Fantasy College Football CFB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (10/24/16)
We still have a number of undefeated teams vying for top-four spots in the BCS rankings--meaning, one loss effectively ends a team's chances of lifting the only trophy that matters at the end. So, bye-bye Texas A&M, this week's biggest loser--even though there's no shame in losing at Tuscaloosa. And so long Ohio State (well, […]

Here at Rotoballer World College Football Headquarters--a place that makes the typical NFL locker room look like the men's room at Penn Station--we've made a bold decision: We are declaring the season over. That's right, just seven weeks in, if nothing else the most recent slate of games has reinforced our belief that the BCS […]

Something had to give. With two teams in our Top 10 last week (Tennessee and Texas A&M) and several others (Miami, Wisconsin) just on the outside looking in, we expected some changes. But Houston, a 17-point favorite coming in, losing in Annapolis? Nope. We didn't see that coming. Here are our CFB rankings after Week […]
Fantasy College Football CFB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (10/3/16)
Mid-term exams came early this fall for a number of the top football programs in the country. There were match-ups between high-ranked opponents--in the Big Ten, the SEC, the Pac-12 and the ACC--with some teams facing their first big tests of the still-young season. And, as with all exams, some passed, and some failed. […]

The English majors among us will know the Charles Dickens classic A Tale of Two Cities. For us college football junkies, however, we suggest a more appropriate title: A Tale of Two Halves. Ole Miss had cornered the market for second-half collapses until Week 4, when the likes of Florida and Notre Dame joined them, […]

Comebacks and close calls were all the rage in Week 3, leading to some tumult in the Top 25 in college football. Only a few changes to our Top 10, though. Either we know how to pick 'em or we're just lucky. Below are our CFB rankings after Week 3, from our usual fantasy […]
Fantasy College Football CFB Rankings: NCAA Top 10 (9/12/16)
After Week 2 of the college football season, Central Michigan and Western Michigan both look like contenders for the BCS playoffs. Well, no, not really, but teams like the Chippewas (that’s Central Michigan, we think) have put college football’s elites—sometimes with the help of poor officiating—on notice: The meek shall inherit the earth. Or at […]
