Make no mistake about it, we will see some surprises on Saturday that cannot be predicted and cannot be explained by previous performance. We already saw Florida International defeat Central Florida and also an explosion by Georgia Tech RB Marcus Marshall to the tune of 8 carries, 184 yards, and 2 TDs against Alcorn State.

It is the simply the nature of football for underdogs and breakout players to emerge seemingly from nowhere. All you can do to make intelligent use of your investment with your daily fantasy sports (DFS) lineups is follow a sound strategy that focuses on reducing risk. Do your research, follow the news right up to gametime, and keep notes on what players are questionable to play within your DFS rosters.

In order to give an introduction to a new wave of NFL fantasy vets looking to branch into the college arena, this entry will begin a yearlong demonstration on how to build your bankroll, and also provide suggested plays to those looking for recommendations. We will focus on the cash game-format (50/50), beginning with $50 in the bankroll, and a full disclosure approach of accountability will be followed to highlight the progress of that bankroll.
