NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Postseason

It turns out that demolishing the divisions in the superconferences from Hell was a good idea. Who knew? Most of the conference championship games were exciting, even if there wasn't much drama about who was getting into the first 12-team playoff. The Big 12 (16) Championship was the only game that had do-or-die pretenses. That […]

CBB DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (12/10/24)

ESPN hasn't branded this as "Super Tuesday" yet, but we have some good games on tap tonight. The bad news is that two Big Ten (18) games are on Peacock. Thanks for nothing, NBC. We start at Madison Square Garden for the Jimmy V Classic between Tennessee and Miami. Next up are Penn State and […]

2024 College Football Playoff Bracket Reaction - What The Committee Got Right And Wrong

The College Football Playoff Committee put themselves in an impossible situation. They ranked teams with weak schedules and/or no ranked wins too high and boxed themselves in. They couldn't get out of it and SEC teams kept losing. That's the storyline going around. What the committee ended up doing was kicking the SEC hornet's nest. […]

2024 College Football Playoff Picture, Projections, Outlook: Selection Sunday

Here we sit on the morning of the selection of the largest playoff field college football has ever seen. It feels just like I thought it would: gross. Conference Championship Week was more exciting than usual, even in games that featured teams that were already in. That's good. There was not an armageddon scenario for […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Championship Week (12/6 And 12/7 2024)

It has all come down to Championship Week. Of course, it's a little anticlimactic when half of the teams that will be in the playoff aren't playing this week. We still have some drama with the Big 12 (16) likely only getting the champion in. Boise State is in a position where they need to […]

CBB DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (12/5/24)

After a couple of big nights of college basketball, tonight feels like a bit of a snoozer. It's not, but with only two games going on, it feels like it. It may only be two games, but they are two good ones. We start in State College with Purdue coming to town. The nightcap is […]

Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch: Top College Fantasy Football Players Week 14 (2024)

We had all 134 teams in action this weekend, so there were plenty of great performances to choose from. The last week of the college football regular season was a little less chaotic from a standings perspective, but it was chaos after games. We had six fights break out after heated rivalry games. One involved […]

NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Week 15

Ohio State loses to Michigan again, but it will only affect their playoff seeding, not their participation in said event. Miami's loss will have them sweating on Selection Sunday. Most of the playoff field will be set if indeed the committee keeps its word about participation in the conference championship game not negatively affecting the […]

2024 College Football Playoff Picture, Projections, Outlook (Week 15 Update)

This was intended to be a monthly update of the playoff picture, but things have gotten wild in the first couple weeks of November. Wild enough that we at RotoBaller thought it was necessary to do a weekly update for the last few weeks of the season. Week 14 saw Georgia survive, and no fewer […]

CBB DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (12/1/24)

December in college basketball is the calm before the conference storm. Most teams take a break around finals, breaking up the month. We don't have a lot of marquee matchups that we did in November. It can feel dull to some, but this is the perfect chance to make cash in the college DFS game. […]

NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Week 14

Oklahoma, Auburn, and Florida nuked the SEC. Indiana falls to Ohio State. The Kansas Jayhawks quest for a bowl claims another victim. It was just another day in the college football universe, but it could shake up these rankings a bit. These rankings will vary from the AP ones because I don't go off speculation. […]

Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch: Top College Fantasy Football Players Week 13 (2024)

Welcome back to another season of Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch, where I highlight the best and brightest performances from the college football week. The SEC got nuked by five-loss teams and the Big 12 (16) is even more of a mess than last week. Which individual players put forth a good week? We will introduce […]

2024 College Football Playoff Picture, Projections, Outlook (Week 14 Update)

This was intended to be a monthly update of the playoff picture, but things have gotten wild in the first couple weeks of November. Wild enough that we at RotoBaller thought it was necessary to do a weekly update for the last few weeks of the season. Week 13 was massive chaos and whittling this […]

CBB DFS: Early DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (11/26/24)

We had a few holiday tournaments kick up over the weekend, but now we're getting into them in earnest. Our early slate today starts with San Diego State and Creighton in the Power Tournament at the Players Era Festival in Vegas. Next up we have UConn and Colorado from Maui.

CBB DFS: Early DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (11/25/24)

We had a few holiday tournaments kick up over the weekend, but now we're getting into them in earnest. Our early slate today features the first two games of the Maui Invitational and one of the games from the Sunshine Slam still going on in Daytona. We begin with a huge one from Maui between […]

DraftKings Main CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (11/23/24)

We are nearing the end, friends. After this week we only have rivalry week left for the big tournaments. We will have several smaller slates throughout bowl season -- and you know I'll be with you for all of it -- but there is something special about these big 12-game slates. We have some big […]

Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch: Top College Fantasy Football Players Week 12 (2024)

Welcome back to another season of Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch, where I highlight the best and brightest performances from the college football week. The Big 12 (16) took center stage this week, and Tennessee fell to the ranks of most SEC contenders with two losses. Here are the players who showed up that you may […]

NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Week 13

Georgia takes down Tennessee a week after losing to Mississippi. The Big Ten (18) is really tough at the top, but really bad at the bottom. Most of the middle is irrelevant for ranking purposes. The middle of the ACC tanked and Louisiana was removed from the ranks of one-loss teams. It was an interesting […]

2024 College Football Playoff Picture, Projections, Outlook (Week 13 Update)

This was intended to be a monthly update of the playoff picture, but things have gotten wild in the first couple weeks of November. Wild enough that we at RotoBaller thought it was necessary to do a weekly update for the last few weeks of the season. This is unlike anything we have seen before […]

DraftKings Main CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (11/16/24)

We only have two more weekends after this of wall-to-wall college football. Enjoy it while you can! We have some interesting games today. The early window isn't very busy with only four games, but there are a couple of important ones. Tulane heads up to Maryland to take on the Navy. Texas heads to Fayetteville […]

NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Week 12

It was the ACC that threw a wrench in everything this week but somehow gave their playoff berth some clarity. The SEC did not. Georgia fell in Oxford to muddy up the SEC waters a little more. It's getting interesting out there. Not 2007 interesting, but interesting nonetheless. These rankings will vary from the AP […]

CBB DFS: Main DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (11/15/24)

We are at a special time during college basketball season. We are not locked into two busy mid-week days with nothing on Thursday and Friday yet. We have a loaded Friday slate with tomorrow reserved for football. Let's take advantage! We have a couple of earlier tips tonight with Florida in Tallahassee and TCU in […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (11/16/24)

We are up to 42 games on Saturday despite a couple of SEC teams snacking on cupcakes this week. This is our busiest week in the last three weeks and I need a get-right week like Penn State had last week. Week 11 was brutal. I only got 18 of 50 picks right and lost […]

2024 College Football Playoff Picture, Projections, Outlook (Week 12 Update)

This was intended to be a monthly update of the playoff picture, but things have gotten wild in the first couple weeks of November. Wild enough that we at RotoBaller thought it was necessary to do a weekly update over the next couple of weeks. Georgia and Miami both lost, throwing a wrench into the […]

NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Week 11

The Big 12 (14) was turned on its ear and Ohio State proved its dominance over Penn State (again). Just another week of college football in November. The games are still exciting for now, but will the novelty wear off after a few years? Penn State losing to Ohio State means very little this year. […]

2025 NFL Rookie Mock Draft: Fantasy Football Dynasty Leagues and Rookie Drafts

It's never too early to look ahead to next year's dynasty drafts. A handful of college football players are emerging as superstars, others are continuing their dominance, and yet more are fading into the background as their performances falter. It's important to gather as much information as possible about these future rookies. Rookie drafts have […]

2024 College Football Playoff Picture, Projections, Outlook (November Update)

Most teams are eight games into the 2024 season. If you thought the arguments about a four-team playoff were exhausting, just wait until you see the chaos that could happen this year. The ACC could blow up the 12-team playoff before it even gets off the ground! Whereas September's playoff picture had a modicum of […]

NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Week 10

A few teams were tested this week and a few other ranked teams got destroyed by higher-ranked teams. That will cause some shakeups lower in the rankings, but the top will remain largely unchanged. That will be the case this week and next week when more than a third of the top 25 teams are […]

College Football Pick'em Pool Picks (Week 10 2024) - Targets, Avoids, Predictions for ESPN Pick'em Contests

One bad week can really hurt at this time of year. I only got three picks right last week. The problem for me is that 26 entries had 40 points or more. "GreatestMomentsinFB" led the group with 51 points in Week 9. "EAGLESYANKEES77" and "lbockenek" each had 50. The big week from "EAGLESYANKEES77" puts them […]

DraftKings Evening CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/26/24)

Our seven-game prime-time slate is full of good offerings once again. This begins in Miami with the Seminoles in town. Some of the luster may have faded, but the hatred has not. Where do we go from there? How about to College Station for LSU vs. A&M? Michigan hosts Michigan State in the Mitten Bowl. […]
