QUARTERBACKS 

Matt Corral (Mississippi) Opp @ TENN ($10K)

Corral is expensive but you know what you are going to get – a high floor and a ceiling. Averaging 299.5 passing yards per game (12th in nation) and has accounted for 20 touchdowns and only one turnover. The Rebels second leading rusher with 255 yards and this could be a shootout with a game total of 82.5. Corral should be a lock.

Hendon Hooker (Tennessee) Opp MISS ($8.8K)

Gets to show how good he really is with a matchup against Corral and Ole Miss. With RB Tiyon Evans either out or limited Hooker will have a lot of pressure on him to deliver a big game and can do just that as he has the best QB Rating in the SEC (185.88) plus has 13 touchdown and only one interception- second best only to Corral. With three rushing touchdowns Hooker is getting better every week, the last three playing against Top 50 defenses and with a shootout looming is a play in all formats.

Max Duggan (TCU) Opp @ OU ($6.5K)

Duggan is questionable on Saturday against the Sooners but is a solid value if he takes the field. Had a career low 10 pass attempts last week against Texas Tech but for the season he is 75-of -116 passing for 1,003 yards with nine touchdowns and two picks. The dual threat has also rushed for 186 yards and two touchdowns. This is the second highest game total at 63 points and TCU will probably playing from behind against a Sooner pass defense that is allowing 265.8 yards a game.

Also Consider:

  • Bryce Young (Alabama) $9K GPP
  • Caleb Williams (Oklahoma) $8.3K Cash/GPP *check status
  • Will Rogers (Mississippi State) $7.1K GPP
  • Brock Purdy (Iowa State) $7.6K GPP

 

RUNNING BACKS

Breece Hall (Iowa State) Opp KSU ($9.5K)

Needs no introduction- one of the best backs in the nation. Touchdowns in 17 straight games (nations best streak) and 100+ yards in three straight. The issue is that Kansas State’s rush defense is no joke as opponents have averaged just 86.4 rushing yards a game. Hall is a stud but at $9.5K and the KSU defense he becomes a GPP play.

Brian Robinson Jr. (Alabama) Opp @MSST ($8.0K)

Over last two games against Ole Miss and Texas A&M Robinson has combined for 60 carries and 318 yards. He has carried the ball 83.3 percent of the time over those two games and against A&M he caught four passes for 60 yards out of the backfield. Expect a high scoring game against Mississippi State and similar over even better numbers especially when Nick Saban commented that they should have run the ball more in the red zone last week.

Kennedy Brooks (Texas) Opp TCU ($6.8K)

Ran for 217 yards and two scores on 25 carries in the big comeback win over Texas last weekend. Out snapped Eric Gray 56 to 27 in the game pretty much taking over the RB1 spot. It appears Brooks has regained the form that made him a top Big 12 running back in 2018 and 2019 and gets to face a TCU rush defense that is allowing 206.0 yards on the ground.  In play in all formats.

Henry Parrish Jr (Mississippi) Opp @ TENN ($5.2K)

If Jerrion Ealy is out again Parrish becomes a strong play. Had the best game of his career last week in Ole Miss’s 52-51 win over Arkansas when he ran the ball 18 times for 111 yards (both career highs). He will share some time with Snoop Conner and QB Matt Corral but there should be enough to go around in a game with a total of 82.5. 

Jabari Small (Tennessee) Opp MISS ($3.6K)

Starting running back Tiyon Evans is questionable and if he sits out lock in Small at an extreme value of $3.6K. Small has battled injuries all season but reports are that he is active and ready to go. He has 243 yards and two touchdowns on 44 carries this season while Ole Miss has been terrible against the run. The Rebels are allowing 193 yards on the ground per game- 12th in the SEC.

 

Also Consider:

  • Deuce Vaughn (Kansas State) $7.1K GPP
  • Zach Evans (TCU) $7.5K *monitor status
  • Zonovan Knight (NCST) $5.5K Cash/GPP
  • Zach Charbonnet (UCLA) $6.5K GPP
  • Eric Gray (Oklahoma) $4.4K Cash/GPP
     

WIDE RECEIVERS

Dontario Drummond (Mississippi) Opp @ TENN ($7.2K)

Has been a stud all season. Drummond has 26 catches for 460 yards and five touchdowns plus a score on the ground. Two players have 400 yards from scrimmage and three have over five touchdowns- Drummond is the only one to have both. He will see the bulk of Corral’s targets and they should be paired together in cash (if you can make it work) and GPPs.

Makai Polk (Mississippi State) Opp BAMA ($6.9K)

Polk leads the SEC in receptions and has 10 targets in four of five games this season- pretty much elite volume. The Air Raid offense will be passing more than ever playing from behind Alabama which will benefit Pope. He is averaging 9.2 receptions per game and ranks third in FBS after catching 13 passes for 126 yards two weeks ago. Polk has also reached double digits in catches in three of five games and has 430 yards with four touchdowns. In play in all formats.

John Metchie III (Alabama) Opp @MSST ($5.9K)

Been a bit of a disappointment this season. Has just 363 yards receiving with only two touchdowns and has been haunted by dropped passes. Coming off a game against Texas A&M where he had his most receiving yards this season with 88 on seven catches and could have had an even bigger game if it wasn’t for a couple key drops. With more focus on Jameson Williams this could big a big bounce back game for Metchie against the Bulldogs

Benjamin Yurosek (Stanford) Opp @ WSU ($4.6K)

In the last two weeks Yurosek has caught nine passes for 159 yards. It’s pretty much a two-receiver team with Elijah Higgins and the tight end Yurosek and Yurosek was targeted 10 times last week against Arizona State. He ended up with six catches for 118 yards and while the Stanford ground game continues to struggle look for more volume and a near lock at only $4.6K.

John Haselwood (Oklahoma) Opp TCU ($3.9K)

Haselwood is a cheap value that saw seven targets last week against Texas even though he only caught three passes. Besides week 5 against Kansas State when he only saw one target Haselwood has seen 21 in the other three games catching 12 passes for 98 yards. With this game being the second highest total on the slate (63) we could see him make value.

 

Also Consider:

  • Travell Harris (Washington State) $6.3K Cash/GPP
  • Jameson Williams (Alabama) $7.9K GPP
  • Velus Jones Jr (Tennessee) $6.6K GPP
  • Braylon Sanders (Mississippi) $6.1K GPP
  • Emeka Emezie (NCST) $5.8K GPP
  • Calvin Jackson (Washington State) $5.7K GPP
  • Charlie Kolar (Iowa State) $5.2K Cash/GPP
  • Donovan Ollie (Washington State) $3.5K Punt
