It's a small but mighty night slate on DraftKings to end our Friday night. We start off between the hedges for Clean Old-Fashioned Hate between Georgia and Georgia Tech.
Next, we head to the chilly Midwest for Nebraska and Iowa from Kinnick Stadium. We close out the night in Orlando with Utah facing Central Florida at the Bounce House. It's a great way to finish a day of college football!
In this article, I will provide you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings on 11/29/24, locking at 7:30 p.m. EST. 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.
DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Quarterbacks
Luke Bottari, Utah ($6.5K)
For the first time since Cameron Rising went down again, we have a little bit of clarity on the Utah quarterback situation. Bottari is the unquestioned starter and may even be his own backup in this game. Bottari's only meaningful game action came last week against Iowa State. He was solid, completing 5-of-9 passes for 55 yards.
He also ran four times for 47 yards, giving an added dimension that Utah hasn't had since Rising was much younger. Central Florida's defense has been a mess for most of the season. Bottari's inexperience isn't a deal-breaker. This is not a strong QB slate. I'm going to spend at running back instead.
Dylan Raiola, Nebraska ($6K)
Raiola has had a couple of bad games this year, but he has been mostly solid. Last week was the first time that Raiola didn't commit a turnover since Week 5 against Purdue. Iowa is a strong and opportunistic defense, so I'm not crazy about Raiola. I do like the talent in this price range though.
Also consider Carson Beck, Georgia ($9.1K); Dylan Rizk, Central Florida ($6.8K)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Running Backs
Kaleb Johnson, Iowa ($10.8K)
Nebraska Vs Iowa
Iowa RB Kaleb Johnson
⭐️ 223 ATT 1,492 YDS 21 TD
⭐️ 88.4 PFF RUN Grade
⭐️ 4.52 YCO/A
⭐️ 41 Explosive Runs (10+)pic.twitter.com/eBuZXqDr29— Kevin (@Daboys_22) November 29, 2024
Iowa is starting Jackson Stratton at quarterback again so expect the same game plan as last week: run Kaleb Johnson 35 times. It worked against Maryland, but can it work against a team that is good at stopping the run? Even if it doesn't, Johnson is a workhorse and should get at least 100 yards rushing and a touchdown. No team has held him out of the end zone this season.
Nate Frazier, Georgia ($5K)
Trevor Etienne is out tonight, so fire up Frazier. He had a huge game against UMass last week, but he also ran for 68 yards on Tennessee and 47 on Mississippi. There is potential here. Frazier has scored in double figures in DraftKings points in each of the last four games.
Also consider: RJ Harvey, Central Florida UCLA ($10.2K); Micah Bernard, Utah ($6.7K)
DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Wide Receivers
Kobe Hudson, Central Florida ($5.7K)
Believe me when I say that this is a very weak WR slate. Hudson has 13 receptions over the last three games, which is a huge number at UCF this year. Hudson's targets have been a little more reliable than Jacoby Jones recently. I'll go with the big-play ability of Hudson
Dominic Lovett, Georgia ($4.7K)
Arian Smith is the deep threat, but I went with the GPP option for UCF. I'll go with the safe option for Georgia. Lovett has at least eight DraftKings points in four straight games. Again, that's a good total for a team that is built on running the ball and playing defense.
Jahmal Banks, Nebraska ($3.4K)
Banks was heavily targeted against USC and Wisconsin. He has nine receptions over the last two games, suggesting that Raiola and Banks are building something between them. Nebraska won't throw a lot in this game, but I'll trust the volume on Banks at this price.
Also consider: Jacoby Jones, Central Florida ($6K); Dorian Singer, Utah ($5.3K); Jacory Barney Jr., Nebraska ($4.5K)
DraftKings CFB Stacks
Georgia
I will preface this by saying that I won't have more than two players from any team on this slate. The stack options aren't great. However, Georgia has by far the highest spread. Carson Beck and Frazier are great plays since price isn't prohibitive. Arian Smith and Lovett fit nicely, and you can still use one of the top RBs.
Also consider: Central Florida, Nebraska
