Daily Fantasy College Football is Live on DraftStreet!
Week 8 was a little later than some were hoping for, but DraftStreet has finally unveiled College Football to the daily fantasy sports community! You can head on over right now and participate in any of the standard variety of Salary Cap offerings on DraftStreet. There are no GPPs or Live Drafts available at the moment, but Mark Nerenberg, Product Manager of DraftStreet, tells us that the GPPs will be on their way shortly.
The format will be similar to NFL except there will be an extra RB instead of DSP, it will be full PPR, and passing TDs will count for 6 instead of 4 fantasy points. Only players in the big six conferences will be available and leagues will be offered when the conference season begins.
