Daily Fantasy College Football - DraftKings CFB DFS Picks for 10/1-10/2

Welcome back to my daily fantasy college football picks for DraftKings, where I bring you some of my favorite CFB DFS picks for this week. Going into Week 5, our early weekend games should be relatively safe. It's easy to pick against teams outside of the powerhouse-conferences that don't "wow" anyone, when they go up against some of the more renowned teams.

Keep your eye on Temple, however, who seems to be having an unusually smooth season. If you're actively watching these teams, then you already have a feel for the CFB DFS sleepers and you can begin to trust your gut a little more. Let's get to it.

Editors Note: Our partner DraftKings is hosting a $1 Million Daily College Football Championship, with great prizes including a three day trip to Miami and 250K to first place. Sign up now for a new account and get a 100% bonus on your first deposit along with a FREE RotoBaller NFL Premium Pass and DFS Lineup Picks (just email us with your DraftKings username to redeem your free RotoBaller subscription).

 

DraftKings CFB Lineup Picks - Fantasy College Football (Week 5)

Miami Hurricanes (4-0) @ Cincinnati Bearcats (2-2)

Despite two losses and a lack of matchups against ranked opponents, the Cincinnati Bearcats have been going down swinging in the month of September. However, The Miami Hurricanes are one of 29 teams in the FBS that are currently undefeated, and will likely continue that pattern for Week 5.

But, not so fast! If you haven't yet supplemented your lineup with some Hurricanes, you should be advised that this has not generally been a landmark year for Miami's team in terms of fantasy numbers. Skip the quarterback, as Miami will likely do more running than passing tonight, and go all in for running back Joseph Yearby ($8,100; 23 FPPG) if you've got the DFS dough to shell out for the worthy investment.

 

Memphis Tigers (4-0) @ South Florida Bulls (1-2)

Memphis has put up a heck of a fight as of late, and the South Florida Bulls have been having trouble finding their groove, it seems. Quarterback Paxton Lynch ($9,500; 24 FPPG) will be one of the most productive quarterback in the early weekend's college football games.

He loves to take care of the football and get downfield quickly, efficiently and effectively - even if it's by running the ball himself. He makes for a nice DraftKings play for your CFB DFS lineups in Week 5.

 

UConn Huskies (2-2) @ Brigham Young Cougars (2-2)

Despite getting shut out by the Wolverines last week, BYU will inevitably take the win over the ever-unpolished Huskies. Count on wide receiver Mitch Matthews ($6,500; 11.5 FPPG) to reel in a career-high fantasy score on DraftKings, and for tight end Terenn Houk ($3,000) to do a little more damage than usual.

 

Temple Owls (3-0) @ Charlotte 49ers (2-2)

Temple made their mark on the season by beating rival Penn State for the first time in 71 years. Now, we know we have a dependable quarterback in P.J. Walker ($8,300, 13.8 FPPG) and his right-hand running back Jahad Thomas ($8,800, 23.8 FPPG).

Due to a lack of sufficient defense at Charlotte, it's possible we can see some extra pass-catching plays from wide receiver Robbie Anderson ($6,300; 7.9 FPPG) - and it is quite probable that Temple comes out on top in this Week 5 college football showdown.
