Fantasy College Football: Update - Week 5
[Thursday] After another nationally televised loss, this time 24-35 in Morgantown, the Buffaloes (1-3) are circling the drain. Head coach Dan Hawkins must be regretting his "Ten wins, no excuses" offseason guarantee. Rodney Stewart (21car, 105yds, 1td) managed to have another solid game against the Mountaineer defense. And Scotty McKnight (9rec, 98yds, 1td) showed no signs of a bye week hangover. But not much more needs to be said. Hey Colorado, have fun in Austin next week, #2 Texas awaits! [Saturday] The first installment of Farmageddon played out as expected. A pathetic turnout of 40,851 saw the game end on a blocked extra point with 32 seconds left: Kansas St 24, Iowa St 23. With Oklahoma St on the bye week, Dez it really matter gave Austen Arnaud (164yds, 2td, 16car, 84yds, 1td) his first start of the year. Texas Tech looked sluggish for most of the first half against New Mexico.
Taylor Potts (215yds, 2int) was more than woozy after taking two big hits and did not play in the second half. This week's high score surprisingly belongs to a Red Raider running back: Harrison Jeffers (8car, 29yds, 3td, 5rec, 90yds, 1td). He has steadily become a threat for playing time, and should see an increased role in the coming weeks. In their first game without Robert Griffin, Baylor was forced to use third string, true freshman quarterback Nick Florence to navigate past Kent St 31-15. Once again, Kendall Wright (9rec, 125yds, 4car, 8yds) was the primary playmaker for the Bears. A Stuckey Situation's newly acquired Jerrod Johnson (345yds, 2td, 10car, 3yds) had a nice game, despite Texas A&M's dismal defensive performance against Arkansas, losing 17-49. Oklahoma was once again without Sam Bradford, who did not make enough progress during the week to warrant any playing time. Hurricane starting running back Javarris James gashed the Sooners' top-ranked run defense for 150 yards. And Oklahoma's DeMarco Murray (23car, 80yds, 1td, 2rec, 20yds) was bottled up for most of the game. After trailing 10-0, Miami answered with three touchdown passes, and held on for a one-point victory: Miami 21, Oklahoma 20. Continue reading for the current scoreboard:
