The number of college football games this week is up to 59. We have 10 of them before Saturday, so we get some mid-week DFS! There's not much better than that. This week, the Sun Belt joins Conference USA in the middle of the week. Thanks, guys!
We start in the hills of Virginia with New Mexico State, hopping time zones to play Liberty. Arkansas State heads to football-crazed Mobile to take on South Alabama. We end in the rolling hills and bourbon stills of Kentucky with Florida International taking on Western Kentucky.
In this article, I will provide you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for the DraftKings slate on 10/14/25, starting at 7 pm Eastern. I’ll provide multiple player suggestions for quarterbacks, running backs, and wide receivers, aiming to highlight one option at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Quarterbacks
Maverick McIvor, Western Kentucky ($7.8K)
The volume for McIvor has been there. The touchdowns have not. He still has 12 on the season, but half of those were in the first two games. Western Kentucky is running the ball more this season, but that will help McIvor in the long run.
Anytime I can get a QB that is going to throw 35+ passes per game and he's not the highest-priced QB on the slate, I pay attention. That means a lot of potential for a big score. The fact that McIvor has only thrown two interceptions this season adds to the allure.
Jaylen Raynor, Arkansas State ($7.5K)

That's the way to go into a bye week! 20 completions in a row is a great feat, no matter who it's against. Sometimes, we get enamored with running quarterbacks and what they can add to our DFS scores. Sure, if a guy throws for 250 and runs for 100, he's a cheat code. If he throws for 200 and runs for 50, a good passing QB can pass that total fairly easily.
Luckily for us, Raynor can do both. Arkansas was the only team to hold Raynor under 220 passing yards, and he has cleared 80 rushing yards twice. One of those was against Iowa State. This is a great matchup in Mobile for his arm and his legs.
Also consider these QBs:
- Bishop Davenport, South Alabama ($8.4K)
- Keyone Jenkins, Florida International ($7.3K)
DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Running Backs
Kejon Owens, Florida International ($5.9K)
Western Kentucky's run defense is better than it has been, but Owens may be the best back in Conference USA. He has scored five touchdowns in five games and hasn't been under 67 rushing yards in any game. Those are modest totals on most slates, but it's firmly in play on this one.
Kentrel Bullock, South Alabama ($5.5K)
South Alabama’s Kentrel Bullock is a G5 back to keep an eye on this year. Contact balance really pops. Defenders rarely get a clean shot on him.

I expect Evan Dickens back tonight, so I'm leaving the Liberty backs alone. Bullock had to contend with super-freshman Fluff Bothwell for carries last year. This year, he has the backfield mostly to himself.
North Texas and Auburn were able to keep Bullock in check, but he has at least 70 rushing yards in every other game. Arkansas State has been terrible against the run this year. They allow 212.8 rushing yards per game on the season and have allowed 15 touchdowns on the ground in six games. We could see a monster game out of Bullock.
Also consider these RBs
- Kenyon Clay, Arkansas State ($6.4K)
- Kadarius Calloway, New Mexico State ($4.1K)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Wide Receivers
Matthew Henry, Western Kentucky ($5.5K)
What a catch by Matthew Henry!! #WKU pic.twitter.com/R2VDqJTSys
— Im not a fan of your favorite team (@fsh733) October 4, 2025
K.D. Hutchinson gets a lot of attention, but Henry offers more bang for the buck. His low mark on the season is 7.7 DraftKings points. Hutchinson has a higher ceiling, but the DK point averages are about identical for a reason.
I want Henry in cash and SE tournaments. Hutchinson is best left for GPP only.
Corey Rucker, Arkansas State ($5.2K)
Rucker has 17 receptions for 222 yards in the last two games alone. The touchdowns will come. Trust the volume.
Donovan Faupel, New Mexico State ($4.5K)
The Aggies are going to be trailing for much of the game. Faupel is way too cheap. He has at least four receptions and 28 yards in each game. That's a floor of about 8 DK points. Faupel is the best value on the entire slate.
Devin Voisin, South Alabama ($4.4K)
The WR pricing on this slate is insane. Voisin has only been under 10 DK points (9.4) once in six games. His ceiling is near 40. LOCK. HIM. IN! Voisin is one of the three players that this offense runs through
Also consider these WRs:
- K.D. Hutchinson, Western Kentucky ($6.8K)
- Jamari Person, Liberty ($5.1K)
- PJ Johnson III, New Mexico State ($4.3K)
- TK King, New Mexico State ($4.1K)
- Chauncy Cobb, Arkansas State ($3.6K)
DraftKings CFB Stacks
Western Kentucky vs. Florida International
You likely have to stack WKU to get the full potential of the offense because they spread the ball around so much. It all starts with McIvor. The only question is how many receivers you want to use with him.
McIvor with Hutchinson and Henry will be a popular stack. Cameron Flowers has taken a lot of touches from Moussa Barry, so I prefer Flowers in the stack. Marvis Parrish is a good addition to the stack. He has 22 receptions out of the backfield in five games.
South Alabama vs. Arkansas State
The Jaguars have three clear players that this offense runs through: Bishop Davenport, Bullock, and Voisin. The good news is that they are cheap enough to run with a five-man Western Kentucky stack. I feel like going beyond three players in a South Alabama stack won't be optimal.
What might be optimal is running a game stack. At the very least, running Raynor and Corey Rucker back with the three-man South Alabama stack with a couple of WKU receivers could really pop.
Aside from Raynor and Rucker, this Arkansas State offense is built much like South Alabama's. The secondary options won't do much to help a DFS lineup.
Kenyon Clay does enough out of the backfield to warrant a look for the Red Wolves. Hunter Summers has had a couple of big games and a couple of quiet ones.
The real sleeper is Chauncy Cobb. Cobb has at least three receptions in every game and is a close second to Rucker with 406 receiving yards. Also like Rucker, touchdowns have been hard to come by, but you can't beat him for the price.
Also consider these other stacks:
- Arkansas State
- New Mexico State (GPP only)
