DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Late Saturday Slate (9/13/25)
I love these late slates, especially early in the season. We see some very interesting matchups on these slates at this time of year. This is a small-but-mighty one to close out Week 3 of the 2025 season. There are a lot of ways to go with this one! All three games start at the […]

College Football Pick'em Pool Picks: Week 3 (2025) - Targets, Avoids, Predictions for ESPN Pick'em Contests
I missed on both my nine and 10-point picks last week, so I sank toward the bottom of the standings in the RotoBaller Reader's Group. We had two entries that got 47 points this week (Rakija Brown and Pick-and-Morty). Three more entries hit 45 points, so we have a little pack starting to separate at […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Saturday Evening Slate (9/13/25)
We are getting spoiled with these loaded primetime slates this season. I love it! Our seven games tonight have a lot of different storylines. Ohio State and Ohio.

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Saturday Main Slate (9/13/25)
We have another dozen games on the Saturday main slate on DraftKings. The noon window isn't quite as exciting this week, but there is still plenty of value to be had there. The afternoon slate is lit with Georgia-Tennessee, Oregon State-Texas Tech, the Backyard Brawl, and South Florida against Miami. Wow! There is also a […]

College Football Picks Against the Spread: Expert Betting Predictions for Week 3 2025
I'm off to a pretty good start so far, going 51-42 in the first two weeks of the season. I've also amassed 28 betting points. Let's try to build on that in Week 3! We've got some good matchups once again. We have 64 total games today, which is a little lighter of a Saturday […]

I don't know about you, but I enjoy having more college football games on Friday nights. Tonight, DraftKings gives us all five games being played on the slate. We'll have some first (and last) timers on here with Colgate and Indiana State. There could be some hidden value there. Those are the first two games […]

College Football Picks Against the Spread: Expert Betting Predictions for Thursday, September 11, and Friday, September 12 (Week 3)
Week 2 of the 2025 college football season brought some more upsets. South Florida is the darling of the Group of 5 after winning in The Swamp. Two more top 25 teams fell to unranked teams. What does Week 3 have in store? How did we do in Week 2? We'll start off the betting […]

Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch: Top College Fantasy Football Players for Week 2 (2025)
Welcome back to another season of Fantasy Football Dynasty Watch, where I highlight the best and brightest performances from the college football week that was. We had almost every team in action during Week 2, but we didn't have the marquee matchups that Week 1 did. There were still some college players who stood out […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Saturday Evening Slate (9/6/25)
The "main" slate feels like the undercard today. The evening slate on DraftKings is loaded tonight! We are tipping the scales with nine games. A couple of these will be blowouts, but we have some nice ones on here as well, such as Michigan-Oklahoma, UNLV-UCLA, and Arizona State-Mississippi State. We have some teams that don't […]

College Football Picks Against the Spread: Expert Betting Predictions for Week 2
It was a fun time in Week 1. We let the NFL have Thursday this week, which means a huge Saturday for real football. There are 79 games on Saturday, but only 48 of those are FBS vs. FBS games. Most of the games between FCS and FBS schools aren't even on the major sportsbooks. […]

College Football Pick'em Pool Picks: Week 2 (2025) - Targets, Avoids, Predictions for ESPN Pick'em Contests
We have a good turnout this year with 65 entries in the RotoBaller Reader's Group. All but two entries got at least half of the picks right, which is why we do the confidence version. Three entries (PAPI PEREZ, WeagleweagleWDE, and chrismiller19) led the way this week with 48 points. That's not bad out of […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Saturday Main Slate (9/6/25)
We have another dozen games on the Saturday main slate on DraftKings. This isn't as loaded as last week's slate, but we still have a couple of good games and some good offenses against terrible defenses. We have some teams that don't often appear on DFS slates, but at least they are all FBS teams. […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Friday Slate (9/5/25)
The NFL is taking over Thursday night this week, so we have a Friday slate instead. This isn't your normal small slate. We have at least one good game on there. All three will likely be competitive, even with FCS Eastern Washington making its way into our hearts and DFS lineups. We begin with a […]

College Football Picks Against the Spread: Expert Betting Predictions for Friday, September 5 (Week 2)
We had a huge weekend of college football to open the 2025 season over Labor Day. Most of the big games were good games. We had a few upsets. We saw a couple of FCS schools collect scalps. Tarleton State knocked off Army in double overtime. Austin Peay beat Middle Tennessee State by 20 points. […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Late Saturday Slate (8/30/25)
I love these late slates, especially early in the season. We see some very interesting matchups on these slates at this time of year. It makes me nostalgic for the old Pac-12 after dark. It will kind of be back next year, but it will never be the same. Who's burning the midnight oil with […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Saturday Evening Slate (8/30/25)
We're not done yet! There are a lot of good games in prime time as well. LSU and Clemson highlight this slate, but we have some other high-powered offenses in action. Freshman phenom Bryce Underwood is on here, as is former top recruit Malachi Nelson. Are either one of them worth using? We'll get into […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Saturday Main Slate (8/30/25)
We have a dozen games on the Saturday main slate on DraftKings, and boy, do we have some monsters! Ohio State and Texas highlight this slate, but the undercard matchups between Tennessee and Syracuse and Alabama and Florida State aren't bad either. Add in the Misery Bowl between Temple and UMass to go with an […]

10 College Football Bold Predictions for 2025: LSU, Baylor, Georgia Tech, Nebraska, UTSA, UTEP, more
Farmageddon just passed. We waited for that moment through eight long months of baseball (even though it was my first love), flopping, more flopping, the NCAA Tournament, the WNBA season, and two months of NBA playoffs. It's refreshing to get back to the best sport of all. I do make some bold(ish) predictions from time […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football Friday Slate (8/29/25)
The greatest weekend in college football rolls on with another packed Friday slate. There are some intriguing matchups in these seven games, but there aren't as many good defenses as on last night's slate. We should see some higher scores out there. Unlike last night's slate, all seven games are included in the main slate. […]
