Welcome back to another exciting season of CFB! After a solid week 13 slate, we are back with another action packed Saturday.
The purpose of this article is to break down the college football main slates, both on the DFS and betting side. The article includes my favorite plays at every position as well as honorable mentions. You can also find my favorite bets under my Dragos Best Bets section.
The QBs:
Favorite QB on the Slate:
Jaxson Dart, MISS:
I usually don’t like to use the highest priced guy as my favorite QB on a slate because of pricing, but I can’t look past Dart’s matchup against Mississippi State. Despite losing last week against Florida, Dart still had a solid game throwing for 323 yards and two touchdowns. What ended up hurting him was having his first multi-interception game of the season. That should hopefully be a one-off performance as Mississippi State has only seven interceptions in 11 games.
Pivots | Value QBs |
Parker Navarro, OHIO | Katin Houser, ECU |
Jordan McCloud, TXST | Maealiuaki Smith, OKST |
Shedeur Sanders, COL | Bryson Barnes, UTST |
Gio Lopez, SALA | Walker Eget, SJSU |
Kaidon Salter, LIB | X |
- I am locking in Dart in every lineup I can fit him in. He is the best QB on the slate and besides Sanders the only one that has been consistently putting up high scores.
- Navarro doesn’t have the best matchup on paper but I really like his rushing ability this week. He has produced with his legs and now against Ball State he should continue as Ball State has allowed multiple running quarter backs to have success.
- Eget is one of my favorite value plays. He is coming off of a game where he had under 50 passing yards which will probably keep his ownership low. That game was just a one-off, there was a huge storm and it was difficult for him to find a rhythm.
- I like playing Salter naked if you are using him. He can get value with his legs while spreading the ball around.
The RBs:
Favorite RB on the Slate:
Avery Morrow, CSU:
The best running back on the slate is the rightful Heisman winner Ashton Jeanty, but he is 14K on DraftKings so it’ll be difficult to fit into lineups. So my favorite running back that can fit into lineups is Morrow. He only played a handful of snaps last week after getting injured but he should be available on Friday. I’ll be monitoring his situation and if he isn’t able to go I am pivoting to Justin Marshall. With how bad the Utah State rush defense is I want whoever starts for CSU.
Pivots | Value RBs |
Ashton Jeanty, BSU | Eli Heidenreich, NAVY |
Anthony Tyus, OHIO | Rahjai Harris, ECU |
Ollie Gordon, OKST | Tawee Walker, WISC |
Darius Taylor, MINN | Rashul Faison, UTST |
Quinton Cooley, LIB | Ismail Madhi, TXST |
The WRs:

LaJohntay Wester, COL | Tre Harris, MISS | Kyrese White, UTST |
