Daily Fantasy College Football Picks for DraftKings – Week 3 – 9/15/18

Daily Fantasy College Football Picks for DraftKings - Week 3 - 9/15/18 Week 2 is in the books and the college landscape is starting to take shape, sort of. Alabama looks unstoppable (again), Rodney Anderson is out for the year (again), the Aggies should have upset Clemson, and Cole McDonald from Hawaii leads the nation with 13 passing TD’s. There was quite a bit to digest last week with injuries to multiple key players and the constant depth chart shuffle taking place before our eyes. This week is sure to be just as exciting and full of surprises. How will Hurricane Florence impact East Coast games that don’t get canceled? Who does OU turn to in Anderson’s absence?

The line has me a bit confused given Hawaii games have averaged roughly 83 points scored per game and they’re 3-0 with double-digit wins against Navy and Rice (and a nine-point win against Colorado State). Army isn’t the cellar dweller it once was, but they’re far from elite status. Maybe the betting public is buying into the time zone narrative seeing how the game will kickoff at 6am Hawaii time. Either way I’m not concerned about points being scored in either direction. In addition to his gaudy passing numbers (13 TD’s), McDonald also has immense rushing upside, albeit inconsistent, evidenced by his 96 yards and 2 TD’s against Colorado State opening night. Hawaii deploys some version of the run-and-shoot offense which not only is fun to watch but is very advantageous for fantasy production. Many of the routes are option routes that rely on the receiver and quarterback being on the same page in regards to reading the defense. Through...
