Micah Ford RBProbable

Micah Ford ran 19 times for 179 yards and 4 touchdowns and added 5 catches for 52 yards in Stanford's 34-7 win over Elon on Oct. 17, good for 52.1 CollegeFFB points. His touchdown total that day tied Stanford's single-game record, according to Stanford Athletics. "Just to see the hard work coming to fruition, it just means a lot," Ford said. Averaging 18.5 points a game this season, Ford could keep producing at $6M when Stanford faces NC State on Oct. 23.

Dominick Barry TE

Dominick Barry had a big day in Wake Forest's 41-7 win at California on Oct. 17, catching 4 passes for 102 yards and 3 touchdowns for 32.2 CollegeFFB points. They were the first touchdowns of his college career, according to Wake Forest Demon Deacons On SI. Averaging 11.9 points a game this season, the TE could build on it when Wake Forest hosts Virginia on Oct. 31, and he looks like a value at $5.1M.

Gio Lopez QB

Gio Lopez threw for 267 yards and 4 touchdowns and ran 8 times for 51 yards in Wake Forest's 41-7 win at California on Oct. 17, good for 31.8 CollegeFFB points. Wake Forest hosts Virginia on Oct. 31, and Lopez has been a steady producer, averaging 29.3 points a game this season, so at $7.9M he shapes up as a reliable piece at quarterback.
