Below are our comprehensive bowl week projections to help identify the top plays on FanDuel on a weekly basis. These projections will be updated throughout the week based on injury news, any key depth chart changes, or any severe weather. If there is a severe change in a players projections we will call that out in a message up top as well as highlight the players in red if they received a significant downgrade and green if they received a significant upgrade.
