College Football Opening Night Fantasy Start/Bench

Start
Kellen Moore, QB, Boise State:  No Ian Johnson, plenty of receiving weapons, and a team looking to make a statement against a BCS opponent.  Watch out for a huge night for Moore and the Broncos.

Tyler Sheehan, QB, Bowling Green:  Get him in your lineups as the Falcons should have no issues moving the ball up and down the field against Troy tonight.  Sheehan is a sneaky fantasy play, so snag him for a plum week one matchup if he is on your waiver wire.

Every Utah Player and their Defense:  An opener for the 2008 BCS busters at home against Utah State who finished last year 3-9, including a 48 point loss to Utah.

MiQuale Lewis, RB, Ball State:  Lewis is healthy and ready to go for the Ball State opener against North Texas.  Despite not having Nate Davis at QB, the offense is still going to run smoothly, so expect plenty of scoring opportunities for the solid back.

Bench
Oregon and Boise State Defenses:  Expect a shootout on the smurf turf and for each of these defenses to be winded by the 2nd quarter.


Stephen Garcia, QB, South Carolina:  On the road at NC State is not a pleasant opener for the Gamecocks and until Garcia proves to be consistent, this is not the spot we would play him in.


Levi Brown, QB, Troy:  Brown is a solid QB for Troy, however one must wonder how much pressure he will put on himself in a road game, which happens to be a statement game for Troy as they take on a bigger school.  Brown may throw a TD or 2, but how many picks will he throw to the Falcons defense.  Take a week to evaluate him before playing him.
