DraftKings Main CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (11/29/24)

November 29, 2024

Mike's DraftKings daily fantasy college football lineup picks for Friday's Main Slate (11/29/24). His CFB DFS lineup picks and DFS sleepers will help you win.

We are nearing the end, friends. We're going out with a bang, though, with big Friday and Saturday slates to close out the regular season. It's rivalry week! We open this in Greenville with Navy in town. Oregon State heads to Boise to try and wreck Boise's season. Oklahoma State is in Boulder. Ball State takes on Ohio in what is technically still mid-week MACtion. The Redhawks head to Bowling Green to take on the Falcons.

The afternoon begins in Fort Collins with Utah State in town. We have the Egg Bowl from Oxford. Texas State heads to Mobile to take on the Jaguars. Liberty heads to Huntsville to take on Sam Houston State. We close this out in the Bay Area with Stanford heading to San Jose to take on the Spartans. We also have the most-played rivalry in FBS with the Gophers heading to Madison to battle for Paul Bunyan's Axe.

In this article, I will provide my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings on 11/29/24, locking at noon EST. I’ll give 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

Shedeur Sanders, Colorado ($9.2K)

You can say what you want about Shedeur Sanders. You can love him or hate him. Your (and my) feelings have no place in DFS. The stats speak for themselves. Nebraska was the only game under 22 DraftKings points for Sanders. He has averaged 26.4 DraftKings points in conference games and Okie State has one of the weakest pass defenses in the Big 12 (16).

Parker Navarro, Ohio ($8.3K)

Navarro has gained over 100 yards on the ground in each of the last two games. That's why we used him in MACtion. That's why we'll use him now. Sanders doesn't have the rushing ability. Navarro isn't going to wow us as a passer, but he's basically a high-volume running back who gets us 200 passing yards as well.

Bryson Barnes, Utah State ($6.3K)

We don't have any information on the status of Spencer Petras yet, but Barnes at least deserves to start this game after how he finished against San Diego State. Barnes completed 13-of-15 passes for 139 yards and three touchdowns while running for 193(!!) more with another touchdown. That was in one half of football. I really hope Petras is out. Nothing against the guy, but we need this value.

Maealiuaki Smith, Oklahoma State ($6K)

The Alan Bowman era has mercifully come to an end. Smith dazzled in his first career start, throwing for 326 yards and a pair of touchdowns and notching another on the ground. He will still retain his redshirt since Oklahoma State won't be bowling this year. This is its bowl game.

Also consider: Jaxson Dart, Mississippi ($9.9K); Jordan McCloud, Texas State ($8.9K); Kaidon Salter, Liberty ($7.7K); Katin Houser, East Carolina ($6.6K); Connor Bazelak, Bowling Green ($6.3K); Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi, Colorado State ($5.4K)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Running Backs

Ashton Jeanty, Boise State (14.3K)

Many people need to hear this

Travis Hunter isn't as good as any WR who has ever won the Heisman

He isn't as good as any CB who has ever won the heisman

Ashton jeanty is a better RB than any RB has won the Heisman other than Barry

Ashton Jeanty is your 2024 Heisman

HAPPY… pic.twitter.com/V1dkoalPPU

Yes, Jeanty is matchup-proof. He proved that against Oregon and Wyoming. The only game in which he was under 25 DraftKings points was Portland State. He's expensive, but sure things always are.

Ollie Gordon II, Oklahoma State ($9K)

We can make a strong case that Gordon's struggles were tied to the struggles of Alan Bowman. Gordon had a good quarterback in there and nuked Texas Tech for 43.68 DraftKings points in just 15 carries. He's a great GPP alternative to Jeanty and a hell of a lot cheaper.

Anthony Tyus III, Ohio ($6.2K)

Tyus carried 33 times against Toledo last week, a season-high. The Bobcats are staring down a berth in the MAC Championship. I expect them to ride Tyus again in this one. Even if they don't, he has scored a touchdown in four straight games. We'll get something out of him.

Davon Booth, Mississippi State ($4.9K)

Booth has 249 rushing yards on just 32 carries over the last two games. It's going to be tougher sledding in the Egg Bowl, but Missouri and Tennessee's defenses aren't bad. Booth should have a strong game for the price.

Also consider: Quinton Cooley, Liberty ($6.9K); Rahsul Faison, Utah State ($6.4K); Rahjai Harris, East Carolina ($5.9K); Keyon Mozee, Miami (OH) ($5.5K); Billy Lucas, Liberty ($4.2K); Justin Marshall, Colorado State ($4K)

DraftKings CFB DFS Picks - Wide Receivers

Travis Hunter, Colorado ($9.1K)

— Barstool Sports (@barstoolsports) October 13, 2024

The top two contenders for the Heisman Trophy are both in action on Friday this year. You likely can't afford both in your lineups (I'm creative and there's enough value that I think I can pull it off once), so you have to take your stand as well. Cast your Heisman vote with your DFS pick! This doesn't happen often!

Jamaal Pritchett, South Alabama ($7.7K)

Pritchett has four straight games of eight or more receptions, hitting double figures in three of those games. He has gone over 100 receiving yards in three straight games. This game with Texas State promises to be a high-scoring affair. Pritchett could outscore most other receivers at a much lower price.

De'Zhaun Stribling, Oklahoma State ($5.8K)

What happens when you get a somewhat accurate passer who doesn't throw interceptions once a quarter? You get receivers who reach their potential. Stribling has 234 yards on 14 receptions for two touchdowns in the last two weeks with Smith at quarterback. Stribling is 118 yards shy of a 1,000-yard season. I'll say he gets it.

Emmett Mosley V, Stanford ($4.8K)

The freshman has exploded over the last two games. He has 19 receptions for 231 yards and four touchdowns (not to mention a couple of carries out of the backfield). Mosley was the key to beating Louisville and almost beating Cal. Expect him to have a strong game against San Jose State.

Anthony Smith, East Carolina ($4.1K)

Smith is going to fly under a lot of radars, but don't let him fly under yours. He has at least 80 receiving yards -- including three games over 100 yards -- in the last four games. Smith is a big play waiting to happen.

Also consider: Nick Nash, San Jose State ($10.1K); Harold Fannin Jr., Bowling Green ($9K); Brennan Presley, Oklahoma State ($7K); Justin Lockhart, San Jose State ($6.4K); Trent Walker, Oregon State ($5.6K); Reggie Virgil, Miami (OH) ($5K); Cameron Camper, Boise State ($4.5K); Elijah Spencer, Minnesota ($3.8K); Jamari Person, Colorado State ($3.4K)

DraftKings CFB Stacks

Colorado State

The Utah State defense is equal opportunity bad. Avery Morrow is expected back for this game and Justin Marshall is an absolute bargain regardless of Morrow's status. Brayden Fowler-Nicolosi is still putting up good numbers even without Tory Horton. Jamari Person is probably the receiver to target, but Caleb Goodie is a nice play, too.

Stanford

This offense is clicking right now. Ashton Daniels has a rapport with Mosley. Elic Ayomanor is still one of the better ACC receivers. Micah Ford isn't used as much as most backs, but he might be worth a look in this situation.

Also consider: Pittsburgh, North Carolina, SMU
