Fantasy College Football: Update - Week 11
[Saturday] The Texas Longhorns took another step towards the BCS National Championship, with a 47-14 romp over the Baylor Bears. Colt McCoy (181yds, 2td, 3car, 13yds) and Jordan Shipley (6rec, 46yds, 2td) helped Texas storm out to a 40-0 lead midway through the fourth quarter. Missouri managed to pick of the pieces of a disappointing season in Manhattan. Blaine Gabbert (298yds, 3td, 3car, 35yds) proved he is one of the most dangerous quarterbacks in the conference when given adequate protection. 
His primary target, Danario Alexander (10rec, 200yds, 3td) put up his second consecutive monster game. He had been the Tigers' most effective downfield threat this season, and the numbers more than back that up. Alexander has quietly become the top-ranked wide receiver this season. The Cyclones became bowl eligible for the first time since 2005, defeating Colorado 17-10. Alexander Robinson (30car, 138yds, 1rec, 20yds, 1td) was the workhorse in Iowa State's run-heavy gameplan. This season hasn't gone according to plan for the Kansas Jayhawks. With preseason Big XII north title hopes, I didn't see this collapse coming. Another frustrating loss, this time to Nebraska, and the coaching staff should be to blame once again. Regardless, Todd Reesing (236yds, 1td, 9car, 42yds, 1td) did not commit a turnover... which kept the Jayhawks in the game until the very end. But the defense continually failed to stop Nebraska's running game, featuring a healthy Roy Helu Jr (28car, 156yds, 3td). Just a week after their embarrassing loss to the Huskers, the Oklahoma Sooners took out some frustration on Texas A&M. Landry Jones (392yds, 5td, 1int) threw for career highs in yardage and TD's. The NFL better be ready for the second coming of Marshall Faulk. His name: DeMarco Murray (18car, 80yds, 5rec, 143yds, 2td) who might be wrapping up his collegiate days in Norman after this season. I have a soft spot for running backs who are lethal in the passing game, and few are as dangerous as Murray. He's a threat to score every time he touches it, and never goes down on first contact. Well, I had to eat some crow on this week's marquee matchup. Texas Tech vs. Oklahoma St looked more like Marty Ball than the anticipated offensive shootout. The defenses were the story, led by Oklahoma State's Perrish Cox (4tackles, 2int, 3pbu) as the Cowboys also took back a third interception back for a touchdown. That ended up making the difference: Oklahoma St 24, Texas Tech 17. Continue reading for the current scoreboard:
