College Fantasy Football P4 Running Back Primer

In 2025, Fantrax and Scott Fish (FantasyCares.com) have joined forces to present the first-ever Tadpole Bowl, which is a large CFF tournament. Nearly 500 people have already signed up to partake in the contest. In addition, four live drafts are scheduled across the nation: Austin, TX, Atlanta, GA, Las Vegas, NV, and Minnesota. Sign up for one of the live events…You will love meeting CFF diehards and drafting with new friends.

The Top 20 CFF P4 Running Backs are ranked in tiers (Upside Plays, Floor + More, Early Round Priority and First Round Impact) for viewers to become familiar with the running backs in preparation for the upcoming season. Enjoy the show with Matt Hicks and me on the Rookie Big Board–feel free to ask any questions or post comments on YouTube.

FYI: There are points for Special Teams production, which make the player pool and roster construction more engrossing.

Special Teams Scoring Summary:

    • Kick Return Yards: 0.05
    • Punt Return Yards: 0.05
    • Kickoff/Punt Return Touchdowns: 6

Among P4 running backs, who is a target as a fourth running back on CFF rosters in the Tadpole Bowl Tournament this summer?

  • Emmett Johnson, Nebraska: 30%
  • Jam Miller, Alabama: 16%
  • Kaden Feagin, Illinois: 35%
  • Carson Hansen, Iowa State: 19%

Scholar’s Selection: In order to spice up the passing game, Nebraska coach Matt Rhule hired Dana Holgorsen in early November last year. Holgorson was promoted to offensive coordinator in 2025. The former Houston Cougars’ coach is known for his Air Raid passing game, which will unlock QB Dylan Raiola and create more opportunities for the offense. On the ground, Holgerson will rely on Emmett Johnson who averaged over 5 ypc. and snatched 23 passes in four games with Holgerson calling plays last year. The Cornhuskers’ ball carrier is my choice in the poll above.

“In a full PPR format, I’d have to go with Emmett Johnson. Holgorsen unlocked the Cornhusker offense a little bit towards the end of last year, and Johnson should be a big part of that this year.” @eliotmays

“Give me the TD Machine that is Carson Hansen! Many CFF fans may be afraid to take Hansen due to Abu Sama at Iowa State, but Hansen averaged 5 YPC on 150-plus attempts. He has all the intangibles,  shifty, power, inside, outside…very similar to the 2025 version of Skattebo for Arizona State. Go watch his 57-yard touchdown run versus UCF, and you’ll be in too!” @TheCFBNation

“Emmett Johnson for me. Love the PPR potential and overall touches in that offense. Very little behind him too!” @aceholesrule

“Good group. If any of these are available in RB4 range in P4 Tadpole, I’ll feel like I’ve got one hand on the trophy. Give me Kaden Feagin. The Illini are a physical group, and with so much production departing, the whole offense will run through Feagin and that O-Line…Think Chase Brown.” @WBP83
