DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Wednesday 11/2/22 - Week 10 Daily College Fantasy Football

It's the return of the MAC! We have some midweek MACtion for you from now until the end of the season. Eastern Michigan still played last weekend to screw over my bets again, but eight teams took Saturday off from MAC play so they can give us some DFS during the week. Thank you, MAC!

Both games start at the same time tonight, so we have a 4-hour tilt-fest! Central Michigan heads to DeKalb to take on Northern Illinois. We also have Western Michigan heading to Bowling Green to take on the surging Falcons. This is going to be a good one!

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings on 11/2/22 locking at 7:00 pm Eastern time. 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. Good luck, RotoBallers.

CFB Betting Picks for Week 10 (11/2)

I haven't had time to watch all of the games from last weekend yet, so I haven't tallied the results. For the MAC slates, I will provide all of the picks against the spread along with the DFS picks.

Central Michigan at Northern Illinois(-5.5)

Betting Pick Confidence Factor: 1

It certainly seems like Daniel Richardson has lost his job. Jase Bauer played well in the second half against Bowling Green, but the game was already out of hand by then. There is no official word on whether Lew Nichols III will be back this week or not. Of course, the injury was undisclosed. Any reports of Nichols playing are just speculation. There is a lot up in the air about this game, which is never a good thing. I'll take the Chips because their body of work is a touch better, but I'm staying away from this one.

Western Michigan at Bowling Green(-4.5)

Betting Pick Confidence Factor: 2

This line opened with the Broncos favored by 3.5. This drastic of a flip is always cause for alarm, but I feel like the line was off anyway. The loss of La'Darius Jefferson isn't the only issue that Western has right now. The Falcons are forcing turnovers and they finally found a running back. Give me BGSU.

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Quarterbacks

Jase Bauer, Central Michigan ($7,000)

There is no official word yet on who is starting, but the 19 passing yards that Daniel Richardson posted in the first half against Bowling Green speaks for itself. Bauer lit up the Falcons in the second half, but he also turned it over twice. This is a dangerous slate for quarterbacks and for one of the few times, I'm considering using four running backs and only one QB. Every QB has risk, but I like the upside on Bauer against a NIU defense that has had issues in the secondary.

Jack Salopek, Western Michigan ($6,600)

Salopek's five interceptions against Ohio in Week 7 are going to sour everyone on him but are we so sure that Bowling Green's defense is that much better than they were a month ago? If the answer is no, I like the discount on Salopek. Treyson Bourguet didn't play well enough last week with Salopek out that his job is in jeopardy. Lynch and Bauer have higher ceilings, but Salopek feels like the safest options unless you want to pay up for McDonald.

Also consider: Matt McDonald, Bowling Green ($7,500); Justin Lynch, Northern Illinois ($6,200)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Running Backs

Lew Nichols III, Central Michigan ($7,000)

Nichols led FBS in rushing in 2021. It's strange how quickly we forget that, isn't it? Richardson hasn't been consistent enough this year to keep teams from really keying on Nichols. Will Bauer be? We really don't know, but as far as talent goes, Nichols is quite a way ahead of the field on this slate. If he's in as reports are indicating, I'm using him.

Harrison Waylee, Northern Illinois ($6,400)

Ohio made him work for it, but Waylee still put up a respectable 11 DraftKings points last week. That was by far his lowest in MAC play so far. He had a monster against Ball State and two really good games against EMU and Toledo. I think he gets back on track against the Chips here. Justin Lynch doesn't run as much as his brother did.

Also consider: Sean Tyler, Western Michigan ($6,700); Jaison Peterson, Bowling Green ($4,400)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Wide Receivers

Corey Crooms, Western Michigan ($7,000)

Crooms was the leading receiver with Salopek under center. Jehlani Galloway was better with Bourguet back there, so plan accordingly. There's a chance that Salopek doesn't play. If Bourguet is the starter again, I'll flip to Galloway. If not, Crooms has the better floor.

Joel Wilson, Central Michigan ($5,700)

A boy (quarterback)'s best friend is his tight end. That was certainly the case for Bauer in the second half of the Bowling Green game. I really like Maryland transfer Carlos Carriere, but Wilson caught eight passes last week, most of them from Bauer. He's the part of the Central Michigan passing game that you want for the best floor. Carriere has the higher upside though.

Odieu Hiliare, Bowling Green ($4,500)

The inconsistency of Matt McDonald puts a bit of a damper on all pieces of the Bowling Green passing game, but Hiliare has a huge ceiling. He went for 105 yards last game – a season high – in what was likely the best game of the season for the Falcons. I'm throwing Hiliare in GPP's to see if he can build on this. For cash games, Tyrone Broden is the safest piece of the BGSU passing game.

Also consider: Cole Tucker, Northern Illinois ($7,300); Carlos Carriere, Central Michigan ($6,100); Tyrone Broden, Bowling Green ($5,200); Kacper Rutkiewicz, Northern Illinois ($3,800)
