College Football Pick'em Pool Picks (Week 11 2024) - Targets, Avoids, Predictions for ESPN Pick'em Contests

I missed my 10-pointer again and missed another high game because Bhayshul Tuten and Kyron Drones both missed the Syracuse game. Ouch! Amazingly, "Bluestar" had a perfect week in the RotoBaller reader's group this week. "mr_richard" was the only other entry to hit 40 points. That caused a bit of chaos at the top. The […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (11/5/24)

This week marks the return of MACtion as the Fun Belt moves back to Saturday football. I see no reason why we can't have both on weeknights, but for some strange reason, I don't run the show. The college football world may be a better place if I did. We start in Mount Pleasant, where […]

DraftKings Evening CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (11/2/24)

We have a great eight-game slate to close out the night tonight. For the first time in years, we don't have a late-night slate. You can thank the death of the Pac-12 for that. The Mountain West playing during the day doesn't help either. We begin in Stillwater with the Pokes hosting Arizona State...or maybe […]

CFB DFS Rankings for Week 10 - Daily Fantasy College Football (Saturday, 11/2/24)

As we push into the home stretch of the College Football season, we start November off with an exciting set of games in College Football DFS. Much like last week, there are some very well-known quantities on the board and some lesser-known teams that could provide a nice change of pace and value. The option […]

2024 College Football Playoff Picture, Projections, Outlook (November Update)

Most teams are eight games into the 2024 season. If you thought the arguments about a four-team playoff were exhausting, just wait until you see the chaos that could happen this year. The ACC could blow up the 12-team playoff before it even gets off the ground! Whereas September's playoff picture had a modicum of […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (11/1/24)

How did this happen? How is it November already? We will kick off November with three college football games on a Friday. I can't think of any way that I would rather do it! We begin in East Hartford with Georgia State taking on UConn. South Florida heads to Boca to take on FAU. We […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (11/2/24)

Where did this season go? We are in November already! This is the lightest week of the entire season with only 39 games involving FCS teams on Saturday. We still have some good ones to pick. It's the week of the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. That has to count for something! I finished a […]

Bold Predictions for Week 10 College Football - Freshman Phenom Goes Off, SEC Upset Eliminates Playoff Contender, and more

Week 9’s bold predictions were, let’s face it, a little too bold. Syracuse most definitely did not hand Pitt its first loss, Michigan State was close but did not upset Michigan, and UCF was nowhere near toppling the still-perfect BYU Cougars.  Week 10’s slate has upset week written all over it. There are a plethora […]

College Football Betting Picks: Thursday and Friday Games (Week 10 - 2024)

We had more Tuesday and Wednesday college football this week and I love it! Those picks were released in the DFS articles again this week. There is only one game on Thursday this week before three games on Friday. The difference is that the Big Ten (18) is taking Friday off this week. So far, […]

NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Week 10

A few teams were tested this week and a few other ranked teams got destroyed by higher-ranked teams. That will cause some shakeups lower in the rankings, but the top will remain largely unchanged. That will be the case this week and next week when more than a third of the top 25 teams are […]

College Football Risers and Fallers After Week 9 - 2024 College Football

Week 9 of college football has come to a close, and most teams have just four regular-season games remaining before we hit conference championship week. Favorites rolled this week and while many top-level teams were tested, there were no surprising losses across the board. In the noon slate, Ohio State narrowly dodged Nebraska, Notre Dame […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/30/24)

We are down to two games on Wednesday, which feature quite a contrast of styles. We have a couple of tough defenses and a couple of high-powered offenses going against them. We begin in Lynchburg with Jacksonville State in town to take on Liberty. The nightcap is in Bowling Green with Kennesaw State -- fresh […]

College Football 2024 Heisman Trophy Watchlist After Week 9

Week 9 of the college football season is in the rearview mirror and the 2024 Heisman race saw the player at the top have the closest thing he's had to a tumble. Will that shake up the race at all, or is it still a certain player from the Pacific Northwest to lose? No trophy […]

College Football Top 25 Rankings Reaction and Analysis For Week 10: Ohio State, Ole Miss Too High - BYU, Indiana Remain Underrated

The Week 9 college football slate didn't look like it was going to be great on paper, but as always, there are surprise developments that turn Saturday's action into must-watch TV. Oregon handled Illinois with ease, Penn State looked to be in trouble at Wisconsin before pulling away, Ohio State and Texas narrowly survived upsets, […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/29/24)

We have a busy Tuesday night in Conference USA and the Sun Belt before MACtion (Mid-American Conference) takes over in November. We have three games tonight, all starting a half-hour apart. This is going to be a fun slate! We begin in Miami with Florida International hosting New Mexico State. Then we head west to […]

College Football Pick'em Pool Picks (Week 10 2024) - Targets, Avoids, Predictions for ESPN Pick'em Contests

One bad week can really hurt at this time of year. I only got three picks right last week. The problem for me is that 26 entries had 40 points or more. "GreatestMomentsinFB" led the group with 51 points in Week 9. "EAGLESYANKEES77" and "lbockenek" each had 50. The big week from "EAGLESYANKEES77" puts them […]

DraftKings Late Night CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/26/24)

Are you ready to be done yet? You know that I'm not! We still have some football out West to end our all-day college football tilt-fest. Welcome my insomniac friends! We're going to have some fun tonight with these three games! It starts in Boulder with Cincinnati visiting the Ralphies. Next up is Washington State […]

DraftKings Main CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/26/24)

We have another dozen games on the main slate today and there are some good ones to start the day. Ohio State hosts Nebraska. That never ends well for the Huskers. We have the Irish and Navy from the Meadowlands. Tulane is in the metroplex to face North Texas. Ole Miss hosts a struggling Oklahoma […]

DraftKings Evening CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/26/24)

Our seven-game prime-time slate is full of good offerings once again. This begins in Miami with the Seminoles in town. Some of the luster may have faded, but the hatred has not. Where do we go from there? How about to College Station for LSU vs. A&M? Michigan hosts Michigan State in the Mitten Bowl. […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (10/26/24)

We have a lighter Saturday with many teams taking in mid-season off weeks and one team (UMass) slumming in FCS. We still have a solid 47-game slate to keep us occupied. I already missed one max bet last night (Old freaking Dominion, of course), so I have some ground to make up already. I never […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/25/24)

It's only two months until Christmas! Okay, enough of that nonsense. We've got big-time college football on a Friday! That's worth celebrating! We begin on Chestnut Hill with Louisville climbing to face Boston College. Next up is a big one in Sin City with Boise State facing UNLV. We end in L.A. with Rutgers taking […]

College Football Pick'em Pool Picks (Week 9 2024) - Targets, Avoids, Predictions for ESPN Pick'em Contests

"134 teams & not 1 good 1" led the group with 46 points this week. "Weinhund's Winners" was the only other entry to get 40. The logjam started after that, but there were a couple of shakeups at the top. "IUBB1!" leads the group for the second straight week with 308 points. "mr_richard" is in […]

CFB DFS Rankings for Week 9 - Daily Fantasy College Football (Saturday, 10/26/24)

Every week in College Football DFS offers something a bit different, but this week may be the most exciting weekend yet. Although there may not be marquee games in the rankings, there is a perfect combination of known quantities and a group of lesser teams that we do not see on the slate every week. […]

College Football Betting Picks: Thursday and Friday Games (Week 9 2024)

We had the return of Tuesday and Wednesday college football this week and I love it! Those picks were released in the DFS articles again this week. We have a busy Thursday and Friday again, which I also love. There is no better time to be a college football fan than in October when we […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/24/24)

We have some fun from the Fun Belt and some old Big East flavor from the ACC. It's not bad for a Thursday night, and it's still infinitely more entertaining than the NFL's Thursday offering. We start in Virginia, but not for the ACC. Old Dominion is bringing in a Georgia Southern team that just […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (10/23/24)

I'm loving these weeknight slates. You only need to be one or two players away from a chalk lineup to win a GPP. This is where the RotoBaller optimizer comes in handy. Ownership is high on many players, with only four teams in action. The optimizer can tell you who you need to pivot off. […]

NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Week 9

No. 1 goes down again. Another top-10 team is pushed to the limit at home. Another causes goalposts to find a watery grave for the second time in three years. It's just another weekend of college football! These rankings will vary from the AP ones because I don't go off speculation. I go by what […]

College Football Risers and Fallers After Week 8 - 2024 College Football

Week 8 didn’t have quite the degree of thrilling last-minute victories that Week 7 had, but it was a slate full of surprises and fun nonetheless. The suspense started on Friday night, as BYU stayed undefeated with a go-ahead 35-yard touchdown with just ten seconds on the clock to topple Oklahoma State. Saturday’s early slate […]

Bold Predictions for Week 9 - 2024 College Football

After a two-week dry spell, my Week 8 bold predictions finally started to hit again. I was way off on Nebraska over Indiana, but Tennessee over Alabama and Illinois over Michigan both held true. Week 9’s slate again has the potential for some wild results. After hours of mulling through the slate, I have crafted […]
