NCAA Fantasy DEF/K Rankings - Week 1


Kickers are easily forgotten in the fantasy mix, but don’t discount having a good one in your lineup each week. Although they don’t have the scoring prowess of a running back, getting a couple of extra points could be the difference between winning and losing.

Team Defenses

As we’ve mentioned in our previous rankings, the non-conference match-ups has provided plenty of top notch options for fantasy owners. Defenses are no exception.
