It starts in Corvallis with the Beavers hosting UNLV. The nightcap is in Salt Lake City as the Utes turn the page on Cameron Rising for the rest of 2024 at home against TCU.
In this article, I will provide you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings on 10/12/24, locking at 10:15 p.m. EDT. I’ll provide multiple player suggestions for players at quarterback, running back, and wide receiver, aiming to highlight one option at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale.

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Quarterbacks
Hajj-Malik Williams, UNLV ($8.5K)
UNLV's starting QB entered the transfer portal after a 3-0 start. Since then, his replacement Hajj-Malik Williams has been the best passing QB in FBS. He doesn't have enough games to show up on the NCAA stats yet, but we've added them here. pic.twitter.com/2Guaeu3fm8

Williams has been outstanding as the starter for the Rebels after the Matt Sluka saga. Dare I say, he's been even better than Sluka was. Williams has 99.38 DraftKings points in three games as the starter. Oregon State got torn up by Nevada last week. Williams is my favorite play on the slate.
Isaac Wilson, Utah ($7K)
Win or lose, Wilson will no longer be wondering if or when Rising will return. It hung over Utah for much of last season. The Utes pulled the plug on it earlier this year because this is a playoff contender in the Big 12 (14). Wilson has been solid this year, but he should play better with more experience and less stress.
Also consider Josh Hoover, TCU ($8.8K); Gevani McCoy, Oregon State ($6K)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Running Backs
Anthony Hankerson, Oregon State ($7.5K)
Hankerson has scored at least two rushing touchdowns in each of the last four games. He has 267 rushing yards in the last two games alone. The defenses are getting easier in conference play. UNLV is opportunistic, but they still give up a lot of yards. Hankerson could flirt with a career-high again tonight.
Jai'Den Thomas, UNLV ($5.7K)
Sophomore RB Jaiden Thomas brings it to 45 points for the Rebels.

— Rebel Report (@RebelReportUNLV) September 28, 2024
Thomas blasted through the Utah State defense for 139 rushing yards last week. Oregon State isn't quite as bad as the Aggies in rush defense, but they still allow nearly 198 rushing yards per game. We could see another big game out of Thomas.
Also consider: Micah Bernard, Utah ($6.2K); Cam Cook, TCU ($5.5K);
DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Wide Receivers
Ricky White III, UNLV ($8.4K)
UNLV All-American WR Ricky White III racked up his third consecutive game with over 100 yards receiving
Will he get his 4th this week against Oregon State?
— Coach Hurst (@peopleschamp87) October 16, 2024
I vote yes. White has at least 32 DraftKings points in each of those three games with Hajj-Malik Williams. White was inconsistent with Sluka back there. He is thriving with Williams.
Brant Kuithe, Utah ($4.8K)
Kuithe's experience and hands can only help Isaac Wilson. The Utes even gave Kuithe three carries out of the backfield last week. What is this sorcery? Utah is trying everything it can to make Kuithe the focal point of this offense.
Trent Walker, Oregon State ($4.5K)
Walker is leading the Beavers with 37 receptions. He has at least seven catches in four of the last five games. Again, the UNLV defense may force turnovers, but they give up a ton of yards. That's great for DFS purposes.
Also consider Jack Bech, TCU ($7.5K); Savion Williams, TCU ($4.7K); Dorian Singer, Utah ($4.5K)
DraftKings CFB Stacks
UNLV
Yeah, they may have lost to the Orange, but UNLV still put up 41 points in that matchup. They are scoring at will. Williams, Thomas, and Ricky White III are a great stack. Add Jacob DeJesus to differentiate your stack and give you more exposure to the wonder that is Hajj-Malik Williams.
Also consider: Oregon State, Utah
