Did you enjoy the single-gamer last night? Yeah, me either. It's not really my cup of tea, but we are back to a regular classic slate tonight with two games on the schedule. We have a couple of teams not normally seen on DFS slates. That's where the money is made!
The earlier game features South Florida heading to Tulsa to take on the beaten-up Dust Devils. We end in Albuquerque with San Diego State heading east to take on the Lobos. This is going to be fun!
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings on 11/18/22 locking at 9 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.

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Quarterbacks
Jalen Mayden, San Diego State ($8,200)
Not bad for a safety, huh? Mayden hasn't been under 16 DraftKings points this season. He's priced to the point where we need a lot more than that, but he has topped 27 DraftKings points in two of the last three games. He missed the mark against UNLV, but the Rebels have one of the best defenses in the Mountain West. New Mexico isn't anywhere close. We could see a ceiling game from Mayden here.
Byrum Brown, South Florida ($5,300)
Both Katravis Marsh and Gerry Bohanon are out, so we are operating with unknowns for USF. Brown entered the game against SMU after Marsh was carted off the field, so we are assuming he starts. If Brown struggles, Jordan Smith might get a look. At any rate, I don't mind taking a shot with Brown in GPP's. Tulsa's defense has been terrible of late. Brown is not the runner that Marsh and Bohanon are. He was recruited out of a pro-style offense in high school. His floor might be a little lower, but I still think Brown could be in for a really nice game here.
Also consider: Davis Brin, Tulsa ($7,500); Justin Holaday, New Mexico ($4,500)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Running Backs
Brian Battie, South Florida ($6,400)
Battie has three straight games over 100 yards rushing in games that the Bulls have lost by a combined 57 points. He's going to get his yards no matter what the scoreboard looks like. Tulsa's run defense has been gouged this season, so I'm not automatically writing this off as a blowout loss for the Bulls. Tulsa certainly could win convincingly but judging from what we have seen over the last month, I think USF hangs around, which could result in even better numbers for Battie.
Jaylon Armstead, San Diego State ($4,000)
Once again, the Aztecs have a horde of running backs. Armstead has finally commandeered a lion's share of the carries. He has 29 totes over the last two games. While that's not a lot, that's enough for consideration when you factor in his price and the positive game script for the Aztecs. Armstead is still getting around 60% of the team's carries since his return in Week 10.
Also consider: Deneric Prince, Tulsa ($6,700); Christian Washington, New Mexico ($3,100)
DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Wide Receivers
Xavier Weaver, South Florida ($6,700)
Tulsa slings the ball around a lot, but USF really only has one legit weapon in the passing game. Considering that Brown came from a pro-style offense in high school, Weaver should still see some good volume here. He has double-digit DraftKings points in every game so far this season. All six of his touchdowns have come in the last five games. If anyone can withstand another quarterback change, it should be Weaver.
JuanCarlos Santana, Tulsa ($6,400)
Stokes has the upside, but Santana has produced no matter who the quarterback is. When you have the level of volatility that Tulsa does, that's a big deal. Davis Brin didn't look right last week but is expected to start this week. If he's ineffective again, Tulsa may make a change. With so much up in the air at quarterback, I want a receiver who won't really be affected by it. That's Santana. He has at least eight DraftKings points in all but the Cincinnati game (seven).
Jesse Matthews, San Diego State ($4,900)
The San Diego State offense has taken off with Mayden at the helm. Matthews has come back from DFS purgatory with a touchdown in each of the last three games. This is a reasonable price to pay for the upside of Matthews. He has 13 receptions over the last three games. No one in this passing offense is going to break a slate, but they aren't priced like they will either.
Also consider: Keylon Stokes, Tulsa ($7,600); Geordan Porter, New Mexico ($5,800); Tyrell Shavers, San Diego State ($5,200); Mekhi Shaw, San Diego State ($4,600)
