I can add playoffs the whole way down and have a finishing position for everybody if people want to do that. Leave it up to you guys to decide but have to know today.

I see no reason why not. Are the other teams even active though?

I think most teams are active, not team 8 though who will finish bottom. Anyways I'll set it up as I have to do it manually each week anyways(what a terrible site CBS FF has turned into).

The winners of each two sets of matchups will meet next week and the losers will meet next week. Obviously the ones named above are fighting it out for the honour of being the first Boards.ie College FF Champions.

Its badger culling time :D:D

Facing those pesky Wisconsin badgers that TO loves so much, should be another close one.

...and to think at one stage this week I had Tyler Shoemaker only on my bench, glad I copped on there!

114 of my points so far this week all came off of waiver pick ups on Tuesday!

I hate playing people in the playoffs that i just beat at the end of the regular season. Usually reverses the result. Fair play TO, solid score of 164.25 would have been hard to beat any week. Good luck in the final

Peyton Manning

See you in the final TO

Emm...yeah, I can trash talk too!

Woohoo Top 10 Finish. Might even get a top 9. :pac:
Projected scores for my best team are 176, projections for Team 13 are 170.

You can stuff your final, the battle for 9th and 10th is where it's at...

Edit: Although, on further inspection, there has been more than a few games where I have been ~50 points short of their "projections".

in the UCD college league I got typical fantasy two fingered salute to me this week. :rolleyes:

Make the playoffs unbeaten in the regular season with a massive lead in terms of cumulative points scored.

Scored a decent 174 this week a score that my opponent didnt get once all regular season.

Out of nowehere he nails 200 points and a team with a record barleyover .500 moves to the final and I get dumped out.

sometimes fantasy really kicks you in the nads

Nope. Is there a game on tomorrow night so I know when to set my team of destroying you.

Peyton Manning

There is! My QB is playing

Peyton Manning

EE can you set this weeks games?

What happens now, is this finished with?

One more week to go, but the matches have to be set manually by EE first.

Spongey1975

If EE doesnt get the fixtures up the scores can be done manually. The final week fixtures are

Championship Game - Team 2 v Team 10

3rd place playoff - Team 3 v Team 5

5th place playoff - Team 14 v Team 1

7th place playoff - Team 11 v Team 6

9th place playoff - Team 13 v Team 9

11th place playoff - Team 4 v Team 12

13th place playoff - Team 7 v Team 8 (164.25-16 after first leg)

eagle eye

All set up for the final round now with the Championship game featuring Team 10(Cam Newton) @ Team 2(Tallaghtoutlaws). Best of luck guys.

The rest of the matchups are as follows.

3rd place playoff - Team 5 @ Team 3
5th place playoff - Team 14 @ Team 1
7th place playoff - Team 11 @ Team 6
9th place playoff - Team 13 @ Team 9
11th place playoff - Team 12 @ Team 4

and finally

Super Duper second leg of the wooden spoon playoff features Team 7 @ Team 8. Team 7 lead this one by 164.25 to 16 and look certain to avoid the dreaded wooden spoon.

Peyton Manning

Nice one EE, cheers for doing a top job as GM for the season.

I have to say I've found it very difficult to manage my team since the change was made from being able to pick up players as FA's to now having to put in a waiver claim.

I'm not sure it's even possible to claim a player for the same week as the waiver period extends into the following game week.

This would mean you need to claim your player a week in advance so it's a little too much forward planning for my liking.

for next year I think we should pick a system and stick to it rather than changing mid-season.

It has been good though for keeping the interest levels in the college game, only problem being not being able to find time to watch all this football !!

The waivers were already in place but what happened was we never noticed it as the games started on Thursday nights for the most part so most of us made our changes before Thursday. But the Tuesday games then fooked it all up and left us with a 12 hour Window to pick up players freely in a Tuesday unless you put in waiver requests from the week previous. CBS gave up caring about their college system and as a result it took them 2 days to setup the new week.

149-142 to me talk about a close finish

Onecoolcookie

Well done TO

Managed to come 3rd in the end so quite happy with that

Spongey1975

Well done TO, the inaugural Boards College Fantasy Football champion

Came in 4th but won my division so gotta be happy about that. I was on such a run in the second half of the league and it fell apart in the playoffs.

Hopefully we'll run this again next year

bobby wade

where was this set up? Yahoo, espn??

adrian522

CBS Sports I think, and it wasn't a great setup to be honest. Not sure if there are other college fantasy options.
We also had all the divisions which I found a bit much.
