 Darius Marshall-RB- Thundering Herd Nov. 20 - 8:15 pm et

Marshall running back Darius Marshall is listed as a game-time decision for this week's contest with SMU.
SMU is a nice matchup for Marshall on the ground, but it is hard to recommend a fantasy start for him with any confidence.
 Christian Ponder-QB- Seminoles Nov. 20 - 5:30 pm et

Florida State quarterback Christian Ponder underwent "successful surgery" on his shoulder, and he's expected to see limited action in spring practice.
Hopefully Ponder returns to full health in time for the 2010 campaign.

 Emmanuel Moody-RB- Gators Nov. 20 - 5:30 pm et

As expected, Florida running back Emmanuel Moody (sprained ankle) will not play this weekend against Florida International.
Moody has shown flashes this season, though injuries continue to plague the talented back.
 Greg Salas-WR- Warriors Nov. 20 - 5:15 pm et

Hawaii coach Greg McMackin told The Honolulu Advertiser that quarterback Bryant Moniz (ribs) and wide receiver Greg Salas (foot) are "game-time" decisions for Saturday's game at San Jose State.
Both players appear too risky to start at this late juncture in the season.
 Montel Harris-RB- Eagles Nov. 20 - 5:15 pm et

Boston College running back Montel Harris sat out practice on Thursday with a sore back, but coach Frank Spaziani tells The Boston Herald this is in large part to the sophomore "carrying everybody."
Harris has been a beast on the ground, carrying the ball 65 times in the last two outings. He's banged up and he'll play against North Carolina on Saturday; he may find running room difficult this week.
 James Cleveland-WR- Hawkeyes Nov. 20 - 4:00 pm et

Houston wide receiver James Cleveland (unknown) is listed as questionable on several independent injury reports.
While there has been no official word from Houston (as expected), Cleveland is looking like a risky start this weekend.  Whether or not to take the risk depends on who else you can plug in in his place.

 Evan Royster-RB- Nittany Lions Nov. 20 - 4:00 pm et

Penn State running back Evan Royster is just 10 yards away from back-to-back 1000-yard rushing seasons.
Barring an early injury against Michigan State on Saturday, Royster is a safe bet to crack the century mark this season.  Royster had 1236 yards and 12 touchdowns in 2008.  He has 8 touchdowns (2 receiving) this season.
 Jordan Todman-RB- Huskies Nov. 20 - 4:00 pm et

Jordan Todman has been steadily taking over as UConn's lead running back in recent weeks.  “We’ve seen some things the last few games,” UConn coach Randy Edsall said of Todman. “He’s kind of put his foot in the ground for more carries. He’s been very productive and is developing into a really nice running back.”
Todman is a very good play this week against an Irish defense that ranks 72nd in the country against the rush.

 Brandon Weeden-QB- Cowboys Nov. 20 - 4:00 pm et

Oklahoma State's offense was stuck in neutral until the second half against Colorado when running back Keith Toston busted two long touchdowns.  The first on a 45-yard run late in the third quarter and then a 47-yard pitch and catch from quarterback Brandon Weeden in the fourth quarter.
Owners that sat Toston were looking like they dodged a bullet until his late explosion. Toston finished the day with 30 carries for 172 yards and two catches for 45 yards.

 Taylor Potts-QB- Red Raiders Nov. 20 - 4:00 pm et

Quarterback Taylor Potts sits alone atop the Texas Tech depth chart for this Saturday's game against Oklahoma.
This is the first time in several weeks there is not an "or" between the top two quarterbacks.  Too bad Tech is playing the Sooner defense.
 Carlton Mitchell-WR- Bulls Nov. 20 - 4:00 pm et

South Florida wide receiver Carlton Mitchell (ankle) is probable for Saturday's game against Louisville.  "He's going to dress for the game," coach Jim Leavitt said. "How much he plays depends on how well he feels. He's getting close."
Mitchell is not a fantasy option this week, but his presence will help those that decide to start quarterback B.J. Daniels.
 Joe McKnight-RB- Trojans Nov. 20 - 4:00 pm et

USC running back Joe McKnight missed practice on Wednesday due to migraines, but was back on Thursday.
Migraines have been an issue with McKnight in the past.  Right now we assume he will play Nov. 28 against UCLA.

 Danario Alexander-WR- Tigers Nov. 19 - 9:30 pm et

Missouri wide receiver Danario Alexander notched his second offensive player of the week honors, the first Big 12 wide receiver to do so in a single season.  
Alexander was one of hot sleeper picks in 2007 but wrist and knee injuries derailed his season and a guy by the name of Jeremy Maclin exploded on the scene.  Finally healthy, Alexander has 81 catches for 1238 yards and 11 scores on the year.

 Brandon Minor-RB- Wolverines Nov. 19 - 9:15 pm et

Michigan running back Brandon Minor (shoulder) will miss Saturday's game against Ohio State.
The tough Minor must be in a world of pain in order to miss this game against Ohio State, his last in Michigan Stadium.
 Zac Robinson-QB- Cowboys Nov. 19 - 5:15 pm et

Tulsa World sources say that Oklahoma State quarterback Zac Robinson will dress but won't start tonight against Colorado.
Robinson will probably only play if something happens to Alex Cate.  Look for the Cowboys to employ plenty of ground and pound with running backs Keith Toston and Kendall Hunter.  But which one will see the most carries?

 Joey Elliott-QB- Boilermakers Nov. 19 - 4:45 pm et

The Purdue offense is just a few yards away from having a 3000-yard passer, 1000-yard rusher and 1000-yard receiver.  Keith Smith has already surpassed the 1000-yard mark.  Joey Elliott is 179 yards shy of the passing mark and Ralph Bolden is 69 yards shy of the rushing mark.
Purdue takes on Indiana this Saturday and odds are they all hit their mark.  Boilermaker offensive players are a good play this weekend.
 C.J. Spiller-RB- Tigers Nov. 19 - 4:45 pm et

Clemson running back C.J. Spiller is in the top five of just about every major Heisman poll.
Spiller will get a chance to add to his resume this weekend against Virginia.  Favorite Mark Ingram is taking on Chattanooga and there is a possibility that he could see more time hanging out with the cheerleaders than time on the field.
 Taylor Potts-QB- Red Raiders Nov. 19 - 4:45 pm et

The Lubbock Avalanche-Journal reports that Taylor Potts took most of the first team reps at quarterback in Texas Tech's practice on Wednesday.
Potts took most of the reps last week as well and got the start.  We assume he will start this Saturday against Oklahoma, but he is not a good fantasy option this week.
 Zac Robinson-QB- Cowboys Nov. 19 - 4:45 pm et

The status of Oklahoma State starting quarterback Zac Robinson (concussion) for tonight's game against Colorado is still unknown.    
Earlier in the week coach Mike Gundy was hopeful Robinson would be able to play but Alex Cate has been taking most of the first team reps in practice.

 Zach Collaros-QB- Bearcats Nov. 19 - 4:45 pm et

Cincinnati quarterback Zach Collaros was in court Thursday for failing to show up for a court ordered alcohol diversion program.  The judge told Collaros that he had until Dec. 7 to complete the program or face jail time.
We are going to take a wild guess that coach Brain Kelly is aware of the proceedings and will be on Collaros to get it done.
