    Lost my starting tailback for most of the game (that hurt the Aggies and my fantasy score!)

    Ohio St actually gave up some yards, so I surely wont get as much from my D as last week.
    Sanchez was off.
    I think ol' Beantown probably slapped me around...

    I think I did OK today but in the Fla-Mia game in the 4th qtr Tebow threw a 50 yd TD to Murphy that was called back due to some "receiver not all the way on the line" call.

    That call cost me 20 fantasy points!!!!

    Scores are in....I am now 1-1.

    Only scored the 4th highest though in the league so I still have work to do.

    I was pleased though to see Tebow and Murphy start to hook up more often and I think I will start Hernandez next chance I get.

    Wow! Ohio St D saved me. I didn't get to see much of the game, so they must have really fired up in the 2nd half to get me 26.

    The USC/OSU game this week will really make me shuffle stuff. My best D against my best QB... DOH!!

    Can't complain. I'm 2-0, and probably should be 1-1...

    Scott, they had a couple of picks and a punt return for a TD that helped. Also one of OU's scores was on a botched shotgun snap that flew over the QB's head into the endzone....

    that Goddamned Saban killed me this week. He put the offense in the closet for a week to beat Tulane and didn't get the ball to either the TE or to Jones. Those two things absolutely killed me. In a match I lost by 10, those 2 (who scored 7 and 10 points last week) scored a combined 2.

    Well done MCG.

    You can say that again. However I had the 2nd highest score this week, I just had the bad luck to play you.

    And I might add the bad luck to play Scott last week, he's the 2nd highest scoring team in the league.

    My luck is due to change.

    Why thank you Terry. However I am looking forward to still making the playoffs and perhaps meeting you again this season. :wink: :wink:

    I do meet Scott again in the last week of the season though.

    Speaking of Fantasay Leagues and College Football. 2 members of the Knight Commision wrote an article in the LA Times on the subject. They don't like it one bit.
    I was surprised when Scott said we could draft actual NCAA players names in the college fantasy league. I wonder how long it will last.

    No Place for Fantasy Leagues in College Football

    Don't worry Bill, my luck surely runs out this week.

    USC vs OSU pits my QB against my defense. Ugh

    My second QB is the kid from BYU... and he's playing UCLA who has a pretty good pass rush from what I saw of the Tennessee game.

    My main TB sprained his knee against New Mexico.

    I stopped looking at that point... :cry:


    I was also surprised when they said it would be full fantasy like the pros. I doubt it will last if for no other reason than the college game is much more volatile with respect to who plays, and who doesn't from week to week.
