OJ Arnold scored 58.92 fantasy points with 267 rushing yards, two touchdowns, and a passing touchdown.

1. Chasing the Natty focuses on Week 12 reaction and waiver wire pickups for the final two weeks of the 2025 college fantasy football season. 2. Jared Palmgren hosts the episode and says the show runs on the Campus to Canton podcast network with Monday and Tuesday season episodes. 3. The episode asks which players are still startable, which waiver adds matter, and which playoff managers need contingency plans now. 4. Chase Hendricks follows back-to-back poor games against Miami (OH) and Western Michigan, including 3 catches for 40 yards and 2 catches for 13 yards. 5. Robert Henry has collapsed to 9.6 points, then 4 points, then one yard on eight carries at Charlotte, and Palmgren says Will Henderson is the pickup. 6. Danny Scudero has become hard to trust after a 37-point Week 10 and then consecutive 4.9-point outings, while San Jose State’s offense has worsened. 7. Drew Mess and Maker has dropped to QB26 as Caleb Hawkins piles up touchdowns and North Texas keeps scoring 31 and 53 points. 8. Roman Gagliano completed 25 of 42 passes for 389 yards and two touchdowns, then added 82 rushing yards for Middle Tennessee State. 9. Joe Pizanski threw 24 of 34 for 206 yards and two touchdowns, then ran for 40 yards and a score while FIU’s offense averaged 45 points over two games. 10. Braxton Woodson stepped in for Navy and produced 103 rushing yards and two touchdowns on nine carries, which keeps him relevant if Blake Horvath sits. 11. Palmgren says Chase Hendricks’ recent slump is tied to Miami (OH), Western Michigan, and rainy conditions, not a permanent skill drop. 12. He argues Robert Henry’s production is so poor that the UTSA staff should already be moving toward Will Henderson. 13. Scudero’s problem is less about his talent and more about San Jose State’s quarterback instability and the offense’s regression. 14. Mess and Maker’s issue is that Hawkins has scored nine touchdowns in two games, leaving fewer red-zone chances for the quarterback. 15. Gagliano’s appeal depends on whether Middle Tennessee State keeps him over Vattiato, but the final two matchups are Sam Houston and New Mexico State. 16. Pizanski’s value depends on whether FIU stays with him over Keon Jenkins, and Jacksonville State plus Sam Houston are next. 17. Palmgren’s tone is urgent but practical, with long stretches of start-sit advice and matchup-based reasoning. 18. The format mixes solo analysis, roster management, and live waiver-wire thinking rather than guest debate. 19. Managers in playoff races who want specific start-sit guidance. 20. Listeners wanting narrative recap more than roster advice.
