FanDuel College Football: Tuesday Analysis

FanDuel College Football: Tuesday Analysis

This article is part of our FanDuel College Football series.

Very quickly, here are my favorite values in the Tuesday + onward slate on Fanduel, which covers the King of the Campus tourney.

QB

Dak Prescott - Mississippi State vs. North Carolina State ($9,500)

It's supposed to be rainy this day, but that might just mean more rushing production for Dak, who is a uniquely talented player with guaranteed high usage in his offense due to the team's lack of a viable running game. It doesn't hurt that he's an elite player in that particular part of the game.

Trevone Boykin - TCU vs. Oregon ($9,600)

One of the top-tempo games on the slate, and an exploitable matchup. The loss of Josh Doctson is a problem, but you have to like Boykin's chances of putting up rushing yardage in this one.

Honorable mention: J.T. Barrett - Ohio State vs. Notre Dame ($9,300), Marquise Williams - North Carolina vs. Baylor ($9,000), Vernon Adams - Oregon vs. TCU ($8,800), Jacoby Brissett - North Carolina State vs. Mississippi State ($7,600), Chris Johnson - Baylor vs. North Carolina ($6,700)

RB

Leonard Fournette - LSU vs. Texas Tech ($9,300)

It's the chalkiest play of all time, but I'm still not inclined to pass on what should be an automatic huge game.

Dalvin Cook - Florida State vs. Houston ($9,300)

I'll have a lineup with both Fournette and Cook, expensive as they are. Both players are in uniquely profitable settings against uptempo opponents who are ill-suited to stopping the runners in question.

Honorable mention: Ezekiel Elliott vs. Notre Dame ($9,300), Royce Freeman - Oregon vs. TCU ($8,600), Demario Richard - Arizona State vs. West Virginia ($6,400), Aaron Green - TCU vs. Oregon ($6,300), Devin Chafin - Baylor vs. North Carolina ($5,200), Jovon Robinson - Auburn vs. Memphis ($4,600)

WR

Fred Ross - Mississippi State vs. North Carolina State ($5,700)

Ross is targeted with extreme frequency in the Mississippi State offense, and is safely ahead of De'Runnya Wilson in the progression order. He can't match Wilson's touchdown potential, of course, but Ross provides a uniquely high target count in this salary range.

Kolby Listenbee - TCU vs. Oregon ($4,900)

Shaun Nixon will also get in on the receiving production, but Listenbee generally seems like the top fantasy bet at receiver in an offense that should have an abundance of production up for grabs at the position with Josh Doctson (wrist) out. If not Listenbee or Nixon, KaVontae Turpin ($4,900) seems like the other top threat at receiver for TCU.

Honorable mention: Bralon Addison - Oregon vs. TCU ($6,600), Juju Smith-Schuseter - USC vs. Wisconsin ($6,400), De'Runnya Wilson - Mississippi State vs. North Carolina State ($6,200), Michael Thomas - Ohio State vs. Notre Dame ($5,700), Malachi Dupre - LSU vs. Texas Tech ($5,500), KaVontae Turpin - TCU vs. Oregon ($4,900), Travis Rudolph - Florida State vs. Houston ($4,900), K.D. Cannon - Baylor vs. North Carolina ($4,800), Jay Lee - Baylor vs. North Carolina ($4,800), Ricardo Louis - Auburn vs. Memphis ($4,700)

TE

Jaylen Samuels - North Carolina State vs. Mississippi State ($4,400)

As has been the case all year, Samuels is worth paying up for. North Carolina State projects to around 28 or 31 points scored in this game, and Samuels has 914 yards and 14 touchdowns from scrimmage this year.

Honorable mention: Jordan Leggett - Clemson vs. Oklahoma ($3,300), David Grinnage - North Carolina State vs. Mississipi State ($3,200), Evan Engram - Mississippi vs. Oklahoma State ($2,300)
