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 […]

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: Week 14 2024 Results

We go from the largest betting week of college football to one of the smallest. We only have nine conference championship games now. Three of them are played on Friday with the other six happening on Saturday. Those will all be in one post this week. The largest college football betting week of the season […]

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 […]

CBB DFS: Main DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (12/3/24)

This is going to be a fun week of college basketball! We have the ACC/SEC Challenge and the Big 12/Big East Challenge going on for the next few days.

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 […]

DraftKings Main CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (11/30/24)

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 […]

College Football Pick'em Pool Picks (Week 14 2024) - Targets, Avoids, Predictions for ESPN Pick'em Contests

It all comes down to this! "keepinglittlehumansalive" led the group with 48 points this week. "EAGLESYANKEES77" was right behind at 47 points. "It's All About Da U!" and "dlobo4" each had 46 points.

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 […]

CBB DFS: Main DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (11/16/24)

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! Unfortunately, DraftKings split the slate today. We still have star power on both slates, though, […]

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 […]

Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch: Top College Fantasy Football Players Week 10 (2024)

Welcome back to another season of Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch, where I highlight the best and brightest performances from the college football week. It was a lighter week on the college circuit, but it wasn't light on upsets. Some players came up big in those games. We will introduce you to these college players earlier […]

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. […]

DraftKings Evening CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (11/2/24)

We have a great eight-game slate to close out the night tonight. For the first time in years, we don't have a late-night slate. You can thank the death of the Pac-12 for that. The Mountain West playing during the day doesn't help either. We begin in Stillwater with the Pokes hosting Arizona State...or maybe […]

DraftKings Main CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/19/24)

For the second straight week, we have a dozen games on the main slate. We've got some good ones in the noon window. Auburn heads to Missouri. Virginia heads to Clemson to take on the Tigers.

DraftKings Main CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/12/24)

We are "down" to a dozen games again this week, but that doesn't mean we're short on good games or good DFS spots. The nooners start in Tuscaloosa with South Carolina in town.

DraftKings Main CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (9/14/24)

We have another dozen games in the main tournament on DraftKings today. The marquee game in Madison between Alabama and Wisconsin isn't as exciting as last week, but the DFS result could be largely the same. We're light on morning kicks, but Memphis in Tallahassee promises to be fun. Oklahoma State making the trip to […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (9/14/24)

We are down to 62 games this week with 58 today. That means more FBS vs. FBS matchups! We have 49 of those today making this the most busy Saturday of picks so far this season. Are you ready? I'm only picking FBS vs. FBS games because even if casinos have a line on the […]

DraftKings Main CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (9/7/24)

We have another dozen games in the main tournament on DraftKings today. The marquee game between Texas and Michigan will be much better to watch than to use for DFS. K-State heads to N'awlins to take on Tulane. Arkansas is in Stillwater to take on the Pokes. Pitt is in Cincy to take on the […]

NCAA College Football Top 25 Power Rankings - End Of Spring 2024 Rankings

We are entering a new era of college football. If you have read what I have written over any of the last two years, you know my feelings on playoff expansion. It cheapens the only great regular season in any sport. Sure, conference realignment is annoying and greedy morons in suits doomed the Pac-12, but […]

NCAA March Madness Day 1: Recap, Reactions, and Takeaways

One of the best days of the year is in the books. There's always a little sadness to it after that final buzzer sounds on the nightcap, but then you remember that you're going to wake up and run it back all over again and elation once again washes over you. No? Okay, maybe that's […]

We still have a split slate today with most of the major conference tournaments in the quarterfinal rounds. We still have 18 games going on, though the split isn't quite as convenient as it was yesterday. We will concentrate on the seven-game early slate before tackling the main sometime tomorrow.
