NFL + Fantasy
Season finally started. My Fantasy Team is The Vortex of Suck (0-1) because of how I finished last year. Here's my roster:
QB's: I started Roethlisberger (56) over Ryan (40). Plus 16.
RB's: I started Elliot (14) and McCaffrey (16); benched Yeldon (7). Plus 7.
WR's: I started Green (24), Thomas (1), and Ginn (5)(flex); benched Fitzgerald (2) and Ridley (12). The "Riddler" got his first TD with Atlanta. Could have started or played him at flex. Minus 11.
TE's: I started Engram (12); benched Howard (19) and Hooper (11). Minus 7.
Defense: Jacksonville (13)
Kicker: Boswell (3)
Total 144, left 18 points on the bench, but still won my matchup by 6 points. Yay me.
Also Falcons 31, Carolina 24. Now 1-1.

#18 UCF @ North Carolina - Postponed, yet still 2018 ACC Champions!
#8 Notre Dame 22, Vandy 17 - Told you they would struggle with Vandy
#12 LSU 22, #7 Auburn 21 - Last second field goal to win it, but can either team keep Bama under 40?
#24 Oklahoma St 44, #17 Boise St 21 - Well, they're out as a non-Power 5 threat
#4 Ohio St 40, #15 TCU 28 - 3rd quarter flurrie by An-OSU was too much for TCU to overcome after taking a short lived lead
Ummmm...
Syracuse 30, Florida State 7 - I have no idea what's going on in Tallahassee
Troy 24, Nebraska 19 - Guess Frost should have stayed at UCF
