CFB DFS Picks, Daily Fantasy Playbook & Schedule: November 9th

At this juncture, we are equipped with a treasure trove of statistics and trends to guide our CFB DFS picks, enabling us to identify dependable stars and promising talents poised for remarkable performances. 

Week 10 delivered its fair share of thrills, and now we are set to elevate the stakes even further. Let us break right into our CFB DFS picks for Week 11, meticulously analyzing the premier matchups as we strive to get those winning lineups on DraftKings and FanDuel!

CFB DFS Lineups: Quarterbacks

Chandler Morris, North Texas Mean Green

Cam Ward is an obvious top pick, and he’s listed further down below, but I’ll save the writeup for Morris instead. He’s absolutely rolling right now with 33+ fantasy points in his last 4 games and 40+ in 3 of those. Army is stout against the run but not so much the pass, so expect Morris to be throwing early and often in this one. 

Shedeur Sanders, Colorado Buffaloes

Sanders feels like a steal for Week 11 CFB DFS picks. He’s been underwhelming recently but got back to a 30+ point effort his last time out. What’s intriguing here is the matchup against Texas Tech. They are absolutely abysmal on defense, and calling their pass defense, specifically, abysmal would be an insult to the word “abysmal”.

Will Howard, Ohio State Buckeyes

I like Howard as a solid cheaper option this week. You can forget about his last two games at 21.2 and 15.7 points, respectively, as those Nebraska and Penn State defenses are miles ahead of this Purdue one. I have no doubt the Buckeyes will score and cruise to a victory, you just have to hope it’s via the pass instead of the run, and that Howard doesn’t get pulled too early.

CFB DFS Lineups: Running Backs

Darius Taylor, Minnesota Golden Gophers

If Minnesota was smart, they would keep feeding this man the ball. Taylor is now averaging nearly 26 fantasy points per game after his 36.9-point outburst in Week 10. Now he gets to face one of the country’s worst defenses at defending the run in Rutgers. Sounds like a recipe for success to me, and his CFB DFS projections back that up.

LeQuint Allen, Syracuse Orange

Besides Week 9 when Kyle McCord threw 5 interceptions, Allen has registered 19.9 fantasy points in every game since Week 4. He scores in every way possible – the run, receiving, yards, touchdowns – and should be the focal point of the ‘Cuse offense moving forward. Because why let McCord throw 5 picks when you can hand the ball off?

Kanye Udoh, Army Black Knights

Value, value, value. Udoh provides just that in Week 11 against a dreadful run defense from North Texas. Army, obviously, is a run-first team, and last week’s game has to somewhat be taken with a grain of salt because they were missing their starting QB. He could still be banged up in this one though, and even if not, Udoh’s been producing all season long.

Quintrevion Wisner, Texas Longhorns

Wisner appears to have taken the reins as the starting back in the Longhorns backfield. He’s electric with the ball in his hands and just needs some more touchdowns coming his way to really stand out. As the main guy though, the more opportunities, the better. Georgia ran all over Florida last week and Texas should look to do the same.

CFB DFS Lineups: Wide Receivers

Travis Hunter, Colorado Buffaloes

He doesn’t really need a writeup, but he’s now back and fully healthy, so I think he deserves that. In fact, he had his second-best game of the season last week from a fantasy standpoint and we can safely say he’s worth the price without having a ‘questionable’ tag. Like Sanders above, the Colorado passing game should be able to move the ball at will against TTU.

Xavier Restrepo, Miami Hurricanes

Restrepo is now Miami’s all-time receiving leader, which is kind of crazy when you think about the talent that’s stepped foot on campus. He’s had a couple of duds this season, but for the most part, he’s been about as safe of a lineup lock as you can get. This week is no different facing an average-at-best Georgia Tech defense.

Josh Kelly, Texas Tech Red Raiders

Game script could work in Kelly’s favor here which is why I love him at this price. Colorado will score points, and Texas Tech will need to play catch-up. Enter: Josh Kelly. He had his first multi-touchdown effort of the season a week ago and, as long as he’s not shadowed by Travis Hunter, should get plenty of separation in this one. 

Justus Ross-Simmons, Syracuse Orange

Ross-Simmons’ first real action of the 2024 campaign saw him pull in 4 catches for 88 yards and 2 touchdowns. That kind of production isn't sustainable, but it goes to show how explosive he is and can make this Orange offense. I think he gets even more involved this week from a catches perspective and provides great ‘bang-for-your-buck’ value for CFB DFS picks.

Eric Singleton Jr., Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets

It seems like every team that plays Miami winds up with 500 yards of total offense. They’re always having to try and match them score for score, which is great for fantasy purposes. Singleton had a dip in production after a hot start but got back to 90+ yards his last time out. GT will be needing to throw, so the odds are in his favor to produce yet again.
