Welcome to week 14 of the college football season! I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving filled with family, food, and football. The college football gods have given us a beautiful rivalry week to feast our eyes on, so let's dive in! We're looking at the later slate as I already broke down the main slate in a separate article.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for the late slate of games on FanDuel and DraftKings on 11/30/19. The lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays.
You can follow me on Twitter @VarneyDFS. I will be around all day to answer questions.
FanDuel, DraftKings DFS Quarterbacks
Jalen Hurts - Oklahoma - FanDuel $12,000 / DraftKings $9,200
You simply can’t deny what Jalen Hurts does every week. You can pencil him in for 40 DraftKings points and he now gets one of the best match-ups yet. Oklahoma State has a terrible defense and I fully expect this game to shootout. Hurts is expensive on both sites, but I can confidently say he’s in every lineup of mine. I think he could combine for five or six touchdowns today and it wouldn’t be a surprise. I love the over in this game and both offenses.
Dru Brown - Oklahoma State - FanDuel $7,600 / DraftKings $4,900
Brown gives you exposure to the best game on the slate for way too cheap. I have these two (Hurts + Brown) paired in nearly every lineup at this point with some Herbert sprinkled in as well. Brown is a fifth-year senior with experience, so I fully expect him to go for 300 yards against Oklahoma. The defense is terrible and this Oklahoma State offense can keep up with anyone. Brown also uses Hubbard a ton through the air, and he’s our favorite running back option.
Consider - Joe Burrow, Sam Howell
FanDuel, DraftKings DFS Running Backs
Chuba Hubbard - Oklahoma State - FanDuel $10,500 / DraftKings $8,700
It’s entirely possible to fit both Jalen Hurts and Chuba Hubbard and both FanDuel and DraftKings. Dru Brown threw the ball to Hubbard eight times last week, which adds a whole other level of upside to his game. Oklahoma is a porous defense that’s allowed 400+ yards to inferior offenses. Hubbard is a great play and while he’s going to be popular, Jake Hurts on the same slate will bring his ownership down a bit.
Zack Moss - Utah - FanDuel $10,200/ DraftKings $8,000
As a pivot off of Chuba Hubbard, Zack Moss is an excellent play. If you think Oklahoma State doesn’t have much offensive success in this game, Miss is the better play. He can run for 200 yards in this match-up and three touchdowns. Colorado has a weak defensive line and Utah is built to run the ball. They’re favored by 28 points and Moss is going to run this defense over. I slightly prefer Hubbard, but have 35% exposure to Moss as I think he has a similar projection for a lower ownership.
Lamical Perine - Florida - FanDuel $8,100 / DraftKings $6,100
Perine has seen just four carries in back to back games and it should keep his ownership way down. I expect Perine to get back to double-figure carries and for him to have plenty of success against FSU. Florida is favored by 20+ points in this spot, and FSU ranks in the bottom-third in the nation against the run. Perine is a lock for production if the volume is there. I personally like him for over 100 yards and a touchdown.
Consider - Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Cam Akers, Javonte Williams
FanDuel, DraftKings DFS Wide Receivers
Ceedee Lamb - Oklahoma - FanDuel $9,300 / DraftKings $7,400
You can play these LSU receivers too, but I think this is a Ceedee Lamb week. He’s always a boom or bust play, and I think he booms this week. Oklahoma State isn’t strong against the pass and they don’t have any one cornerback to shadow Lamb. I’d expect 10+ targets, 100+ yards, and at least one touchdown. The price is high, but I really don’t think the ownership will rise above 25%. Lamb has burned plenty of folks.
Dazz Newsome - UNC - FanDuel $8,300 / DraftKings $6,200
Newsome caught 11 balls last week and now sees an even better match-up with NC State. Sam Howell loves throwing to Newsome and he holds a 24% red zone target share. Dyami Brown is in play as well, but Newsome is cheaper and in a similar spot. He’s a great cash game and tournament play in both cash games and tournaments. Newsome is my second-favorite receiver on the board.
Kyle Pitts - Florida - FanDuel $7,100 / DraftKings $5,100
Pitts and Jefferson are both in play, but I like Pitts to find the end zone against the Seminoles. They struggle against the tight end and Pitts is possibly the best pass-catching TE in the nation. He’s truly special and you can expect to see him at the next level. He’s cheap on both sites for this game and could easily see 10 targets and go for 100 yards. He won’t be very popular at all and value is hard to come by on this slate.
Consider - Justin Jefferson, Dyami Brown, Vann Jefferson
