College Football Best Ball Rankings for Underdog Fantasy

These rankings are for the College Football Best Ball fantasy football format available on Underdog Fantasy.

Best Ball is a wildly popular form of fantasy football that requires no roster management. Simply join one of the available tournaments on Underdog Fantasy, and draft your favorite players from the available options. Each week the software will automatically construct your best possible lineup each on your behalf with no additional action required. The regular season champions of each 12 player league will advance in the tournament to compete for huge cash prizes in the final rounds.

We use our decades of combined fantasy football and data science experience to create a rankings model for the format.

We accomplish this by using millions of data points that include but are not limited to:

• Historical player usage: targets, touches, and opportunity
• Play calling tendency
• Coaching changes and tendency
• Pace and play volume data
• Scoring and drive efficiency data
• Age and Injury history
• Positional rushing, target, and touchdown distributions
• Opponent schedule and strength of competition

This information is the backbone of our predictions, but because of the speculative nature associated with College Football each season, we must apply our own expertise in finalizing the inputs that formulate the rankings. We have a team of data science and fantasy football experts that consider all factors when ranking players. Player predictions are the spine of the rankings. However, important elements like upside potential, bye week impacts, and position scarcity are also included in the analysis. We test our rankings to ensure the results match the intentions.

Expect this data to be updated frequently as new information is ingested throughout the offseason.
