College Football DFS

North Carolina vs Georgia Tech

Pretty much anytime we get a UNC game on the slate this season it’s going to be in the list of spots to attack.  DFS value in this game is on the home Georgia Tech side where you can get 3 Yellow Jackets who are all going to touch the ball often for a very affordable price range.

UNC:   Sam Heisman Howell – I’m leaning using him naked here.

Georgia Tech:  Jahmir Gibbs (RB) and Kyric McGowan (WR)

Nebraska vs Michigan State

We have a scenario in this game where both teams have a 25%+ target share receiver for sub $6,000.  Basically when that happens we have a fantastic value play and Samouri Tourre (Nebraska) and Jalen Nailor (Mich St) are the guys who I think get the volume to produce a 3x potential game at WR.

But overall Michigan State should have success on the ground and it’s hard imagining Kenneth Walker not going over 100 total yards tonight.  Going with Walker + Leddie Brown (WVU, below) will automatically push you down off pairing Howell with his top WR, so the value of these two mid range WR in this game make a ton of sense here.  If you wanna go full crazy, play Adrian Martinez from Nebraska as well.

West Virginia vs Oklahoma

I love that this is a night game and I’ve been on Leddie Brown all season and won’t stop just because they’re going out to Oklahoma.  Rattler sucks but he should find a few big plays in this game and look for Jadon Haselwood ($5,000) to have a good breakout game.

WV – Leddie Brown

OU – Spencer Rattler & Jadon Haselwood

Howell will get us over 25 points in his sleep vs Georgia Tech and figuring out which WR to stack with him is not a concern tonight because there’s plenty of mid range options elsewhere to build around.

Rattler would have to run in a touchdown and he just hasn’t been consistent enough this year for me to bump him up as a second must start tonight while Adrian Martinez we know will run but has a better chance of doing well through the air on the road tonight.

  1. Sammy Heisman Howell – UNC ($9,000)
  2. Adrian Martinez – Nebraska
  3. Spencer Rattler – Oklahoma

We haven’t had a 1-2 punch like this at RB most of the season, but it’s the Gibbs value which stands out tonight for me.  Chandler should be lower owned for any UNC/GT full game stacks.

  1. Kenneth Walker III – Michigan State
  2. Leddie Brown – WVU
  3. Jahmyr Gibbs – Georgia Tech
  4. Ty Chandler – UNC

VALUE Play

Alton McCaskill (Houston) – $3,300 and will get double digit carries.  On a slate where you want to lock in a few studs, taking that kind of value and moving on isn’t a terrible option here.  I don’t see this as being a high upside scenario, but he’s your value relief at RB.

I can understand if you want a safer Oklahoma WR right now but Haselwood’s length should cause problems for WV defensively.

  1. Jadon Haselwood – Oklahoma
  2. Jalen Nailor – Michigan State
  3. WanDale Robinson – Kentucky … 24 targets in last two games for $6,000.  Another mid range WR to love tonight.
  4. Kyric McGowen – Georgia Tech
  5. Samari Tourre – Nebraska
  6. Brennan Presley – Oklahoma State

CORE BUILD

I would go mid range at WR, just set a rule tonight to not go over $6,000 at WR

Sam Howell – UNC

Leddie Brown – WV

Jahmyr Gibbs – GT

Jadon Haselwood – OU

CONTRARIAN BUILD

A fade of Sam Howell can work out tonight but finding the right alternative at QB becomes a challenge.  Nobody will roll out 4 QB and no Howell tonight and there’s so many RB that I like on this slate that it’s the tempting build

QB:  Could punt with Yates (assuming he starts over Simms) for GT.

RB:  Ty Chandler

RB:  Jahmyr Gibbs

WR: ~18k for 3 WR

FLEX:  Leddie Brown

S-FLEX:  Kenneth Walker III
