News
Colorado running back Micah Welch did not practice Tuesday because of a hand injury, according to CBS Sports. Coach Deion Sanders said Welch is "hurting right now" and that he does not know the severity of the injury.
Colorado WR Danny Scudero has not fully recovered from a foot ailment that surfaced before the season, according to Colorado Buffaloes On SI. Coach Deion Sanders said, "We don't want to push Danny out there and set him back."
Isaac Wilson threw for 256 yards and 2 touchdowns and ran 7 times for 41 yards in Colorado's 27-24 loss to Utah on Oct. 17, good for 18.3 CollegeFFB points. Colorado visits Oklahoma State on Oct. 24, and Wilson, at $4.8M and averaging 11 CollegeFFB points a game this season, appears positioned for a bigger workload.
Jaquail Smith ran 13 times for 73 yards and caught 1 pass for 68 yards and a touchdown in Colorado's 27-24 loss to Utah on Oct. 17, good for 21.1 CollegeFFB points. Colorado Buffaloes On SI named him one of Colorado's biggest winners from the game. The outlet also reported that Smith "earned the work" and that Colorado will keep riding the hot hand. At $5.3M, Smith is averaging 6.6 points a game this season and looks in line for a bigger workload when Colorado visits Oklahoma State on Oct. 24.
Braden Pegan caught 8 passes for 86 yards and 2 touchdowns in Utah's 27-24 win at Colorado on Oct. 17, good for 28.6 CollegeFFB points. At $7M, Pegan has averaged 19.6 CollegeFFB points a game this season and should stay in the mix for fantasy when Utah hosts Houston on Oct. 24.
Colorado wide receiver Kam Perry is back on the injured list, according to Colorado Buffaloes On SI. Perry missed time earlier this season with an injury, and the outlet reported it is unclear whether a setback with that same injury is what landed him back on the list.
Joseph Williams had 10 catches for 93 yards and 1 touchdown in Colorado's 29-7 loss to Texas Tech on Oct. 3, good for 23.3 CollegeFFB points. Williams looks well placed for a featured role at $6.3M, as he has averaged 21.6 CollegeFFB points a game this season, with 6.7 catches per game over his previous 3 games. Colorado faces Utah on Oct. 17.
Ricky Johnson had a breakout game for Utah: 5 catches for 104 yards and 1 touchdown, worth 21.4 CollegeFFB points, in Utah's 41-24 win over Kansas on Oct. 10. That followed an average of 2.3 catches a game in his previous 3 games. At $4.8M, he is averaging 8.1 CollegeFFB points a game this season and should stay in the mix when Utah visits Colorado on Oct. 17.
Devon Dampier threw for 238 yards and 3 touchdowns and ran 17 times for 71 yards and another score in Utah's 41-24 win over Kansas on Oct. 10, good for 30.6 CollegeFFB points in that game. Utah plays at Colorado on Oct. 17, and Dampier, averaging 24.8 points a game this season, looks like a reliable piece at $13.5M.
Wayshawn Parker ran 16 times for 171 yards and 2 touchdowns and added 2 catches for 36 yards in Utah's 41-24 win over Kansas on Oct. 10, good for 34.7 CollegeFFB points. After a fourth-down stop at the Utes' own 1, he raced untouched for a touchdown to cap the scoring, according to The Associated Press. Of his game-clinching run, Parker said he had to "humble them, not with my mouth, but with my game." He could have a path to more touches at Colorado, which allows the 45th-fewest yards per carry in FBS this season, on Oct. 17. At $9.7M, he has averaged 30.4 points a game this season.
