We finally have a Friday DFS slate for the first time in three weeks. It's good to be back and we have a fun one in store for you! Those Friday showdowns just weren't doing it for me. We need the classic slates or it's not nearly as much fun.
We have a couple of Power Five teams tonight. We had MACtion this week. Welcome to November! We begin in the Loud House with Boston College heading over to take on the Orange. We close this out in the Rockies with Wyoming heading down to Fort Collins to take on the Colorado State uprising.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings on 11/3/23, locking at 7:00 PM Eastern. I’ll provide multiple player suggestions at quarterback, running back, and wide receiver, aiming to highlight one option at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Quarterbacks
Garrett Shrader, Syracuse ($7,400)
It has been a rough stretch for the Orange in general and Shrader in particular. He only has one touchdown in the last three games combined and has lost 24 yards rushing in those three games. He should stop losing points here. Boston College has struggled a bit on defense this year. The Orange didn't gain a single yard rushing last week on 25 attempts. BC gives up 164.5 rushing yards per game and has allowed a staggering 18 scores on the ground in eight games. Shrader is going to bounce back in a big way here.
Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi, Colorado State ($6,400)
Fowler-Nicolosi hasn't thrown an interception since Week 7 but only has one touchdown in each game since. Wyoming's pass defense isn't as good as that of Air Force or UNLV. BFN should find himself back over 300 yards again as well. He has still produced solid stat lines since he doesn't turn the ball over, but the high ceiling is back for Fowler-Nicolosi tonight.
Also consider: Thomas Castellanos, Boston College ($6,900)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Running Backs
LeQuint Allen, Syracuse ($7,600)
See also: Shrader, Garrett. BC's run defense is going to give up plenty of yards and you can pretty much guarantee a touchdown for Allen in this one. On top of that, Allen is catching a good number of passes out of the backfield. He is the only Syracuse player that has maintained value during this rough patch. He is going to do a lot more than just maintain tonight.
Harrison Waylee, Wyoming ($5,700)
Waylee was boxed up against Boise and didn't have a lot of room against Fresno either. A guy with his talent won't be held down for long. Colorado State's defense has been better of late, but they are still allowing 171.5 yards per game. They have cut down on the touchdowns, but Waylee should be back in triple digits at a very affordable price. A touchdown would just be a bonus.
Also consider: Kye Robichaux, Boston College ($6,700); Vann Schield, Colorado State
DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Wide Receivers
Justus Ross-Simmons, Colorado State ($7,300)
We likely won't know the status of Tory Horton either, but he was already playing hurt before he got knocked out of last week's game. Ross-Simmons is healthy and has 12 receptions for 204 yards and a pair of touchdowns in the last two games. Even if Horton plays, he likely won't be in top shape. I'd rather have Ross-Simmons since I think Horton might be out there more as a decoy than for substance.
Dallin Holker, Colorado State ($5,500)
The Rams are a passing team on a slate full of running teams, so it makes sense that we are targeting their receivers. The Rams know how to use their tight ends. They made Trey McBride, the current NFL darling, a good draft pick because of the way this offense is run. Holker has at least four receptions in every game this season. You won't find a better floor than that for the price.
Dan Villari, Syracuse ($4,400)
Shrader still doesn't really have a favorite receiver, but Villari has seen an uptick in receptions lately. He has hauled in 11 passes in the last three games. I'm a bit worried about that since the last three games aren't indicative of the kind of offense that the Orange want to run. However, Villari's emergence in the offense should give him a few more looks.
Also consider: Isaiah Jones, Syracuse ($5,200); Ryan O'Keefe, Boston College ($5,100); Treyton Welch, Wyoming ($3,900)
DraftKings CFB Stacks
Syracuse
The Boston College defense has struggled, especially on the ground. That is going to make the pairing of Shrader and Allen a very popular choice. To get different in GPPs, I like the idea of using Villari or Damien Alford. Isaiah Jones hasn't been a factor in the offense again yet, so I'm likely avoiding him. I do want at least one Syracuse receiver though. I'm leaning towards Villari.
Also consider: Colorado State
