This is Week 9 in college fantasy football, and chances are you are fighting for a playoff spot. This is the most meaningful week of the season so far, so be sure to get your lineups set.
Keep in mind this is just another tool to use, your final decision is yours and yours alone. If you see a player that is normally a fantasy stud in the “Bench ‘Em” portion, it is usually either the matchup or the fact that his respective team may take the starters out early. Also, keep in mind about your league's scoring system, if you do not get full points against certain opponents, take that into consideration.
