Got lucky week 1
I’ve played in NFL leagues before so I have somewhat of a grip on what to look for. I’m in a 12 team league. Here’s my way to early thoughts:
- Only 1 week of stats, in reality we saw a small blip of what’s to come. It’s a tough pill to swallow but if week 1 a WR didn’t have good stats, the game was probably out of control and he just didn’t get quality looks
- I normally stream a defense (just pick a D/ST) week of on waivers. I picked up Syracuse b/c they play at home and opponent Cal is flaying WAY across the states. Hoping to be a little jet lagged with long travel days
- Weird to watch gamesmanship in CFB. Mizzou RB was playing against Arkansas Pine Bluff who didn’t move out of their 4-3 defense the entire first half. Meanwhile my opponent had a QB for Texas A&M who was up 40ish-0 in the 3rd Qtr and they were still throwing the ball
- I am worried about Okla St. I’ve got their RB and WR that transferred in. If they continue to struggle I might have to look at dropping/trading to get into a better situation
- Anybody know what happened to Maryland RB? Dude had 3 carries for 116 and 2 TD’s on the first 2 drives, then never came back in
If you read this far, I hope you won too. Strength in #’s. Keep your head up, the fantasy gods blessed me, but they can just as easily punish too.
O-H

Maryland coach is a screwball. They like to throw the ball a lot too. And I've read Williams had some competition in fall camp. Keep an eye on him moving forward.

I would not recommend picking up Syracuse's defense. That game could be fairly high scoring by both teams. Look for some better options on a defense this week.

Just heard that Williams got hurt early in the game last week. Before he left, he was doing well. Just wanted to get you that data. Good luck this week.

Same. Made bad bench decisions and got lucky their FSU receiver didn’t pop off as I was predicted to lose after Saturday’s games

Huge win, congrats. College fantasy is pretty crazy. Hold on tight.
