Did you think our college football DFS coverage was done for the day? Just because most of the world goes to bed before the late night slate doesn't mean that I do! College football addicts and DFS degenerates unite! We've got a nice five-game late night snack for you on DraftKings. It's not over until we say it is!
This is more like a late night Taco Bell feast than a snack. There's some elite talent here. We have Hawaii on the mainland in Corvallis. That's a nice appetizer. Nevada gets to rack up stats on Idaho State and Arizona State gets to do the same to UNLV. Hey, they still count for DFS! We have Stanford taking on USC in L.A. The marquee matchup is the Holy War! This is one of the more exciting DFS slates we've had!
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings on 9/11/21. I’ll be providing multiple player suggestions for players at guard and forward, aiming to highlight one option apiece at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.
DraftKings CFB DFS Quarterbacks
Kedon Slovis, USC ($8,900)
The Trojans are absolutely loaded at receiver. That bodes well for a guy like Slovis. He has a good arm and is pretty accurate. I expect to see the backfield get some work in this one too, but there's a lot to go around against this Stanford defense. A one-dimensional Kansas State team dominated them in Week 1. A high-powered USC team is going to have some fun here.
Charlie Brewer, Utah ($6,800)
The BYU defense was pretty good against Arizona, but I'm not sure how far pretty good will get them against this offense. Brewer isn't going to break a slate. He just doesn't have it in him. However, I view him a lot like a Kenny Pickett. He'll put up solid and consistent numbers no matter who the opponent. Something can be said for that in a game where tensions run high.
Also consider: Carson Strong, Nevada ($9,100); Jaren Hall, BYU ($7,300); Doug Brumfield, UNLV ($4,900)

DraftKings CFB DFS Running Backs
Tyler Allgeier, BYU ($7,500)
I don't like that Lopini Katoa is still poaching carries, especially when Allgeier was much better than him against Arizona. However, Allgeier was much better than Katoa in the opener. It goes both ways. Since Allgeier was better, he should see more carries at more meaningful times against a better team. BYU is probably the best pure running team on this slate. Allgeier makes sense here.
Charles Williams, UNLV ($6,600)
It doesn't even matter what the score is. UNLV is going to run and they are going to run with Charles Williams. It's the only thing the team does well. Williams has the most career rushing yards among active players at the FBS level. It's what he does. This kind of guaranteed workload is worth the price, even in a game that will most likely be a blowout.
Dae Dae Hunter, Hawaii ($5,000)
There are a whole lot of timeshares on this slate for running attacks, and on the surface, Hawaii looks like one of those. I don't think they are. Calvin Turner didn't have a rush attempt against UCLA and only carried three times against Portland State. He is spending most of his time split out of the backfield. That leaves Hunter as the lead back. Of course, the lead back in a West Coast offense relies a lot on receptions. Hey, those are free points! Hunter is looking better and better.
Also consider: Rachaad White, Arizona State ($8,000); Tavion Thomas, Utah ($6,000); Trey Lowe, Oregon State ($3,700)
DraftKings CFB DFS Wide Receivers
Drake London, USC ($8,100)
I'm a huge fan of Romeo Doubs, but Nevada wont need to run the starters very long in this one. USC may have a bit more of a fight on their hands. London hauled in a staggering 12 passes in week 1. What's so crazy about that? Go look at the receivers on USC's roster. I'll wait. There are some very high-profile transfers in there and many standout recruits. London still caught 12 passes for 137 yards. He is the clear favorite of Slovis and could be in for another huge game.
Tyjon Lindsey, Oregon State ($5,900)
Lindsey does a little of everything for Oregon State. He hauled in four passes and scored on a rushing touchdown against Purdue last week. The Beavers will continue to try and get him the ball in space. He didn't have a lot of space against Purdue, but still had a solid night on the DFS front. The Hawaii defense has plenty of holes in it. I think Lindsey finds at least one and pays this price off.
Kyle Williams, UNLV ($5,300)
Williams had a nice second half when Brumfield came in at quarterback. With Brumfield earning the starting nod here, Williams should be in for an even better game. He was targeted 11 times, by far the most of any UNLV receiver. They will have to throw to keep up with Arizona State. With Brumfield in there, Williams has a much better chance of turning those targets into catches and yards.
Dalton Kincaid, Utah ($3,600)
The junior tight end caught both touchdowns thrown by Charlie Brewer in the opener. With BYU also trying to clamp down on the receivers, we should see Brewer look for Kincaid all over the field, not just in the red zone. Utah has talent at receiver, but Brewer seems to have taken a liking to the big 6'4" target on the short routes. He's worth a GPP dart in this price range.
Also consider: Romeo Doubs, Nevada ($8,400); Neil Pau'u, BYU ($5,700); Tahj Washington, USC ($5,400); Xavier Guillory, Idaho State ($4,400)
