Here are my FanDuel College Football Picks For November 10-11:
Next: Who Will Put Up Big Numbers At QB?

Quarterback:
Best Bet:
Zach Terrell, Western Michigan ($8,900): Terrell has scored at least 23 FanDuel points in every game since September 26th against Ohio State. He can be excused for that one. This weekend the 108th ranked Bowling Green pass defense comes to town with a high flying offense of their own. This will likely be a shootout, and I rank Terrell slightly ahead of Matt Johnson because of the price difference. Terrell could come much closer to Johnsonās numbers for about $1,700 less.
Honorable Mention:
Matt Johnson, Bowling Green ($10,600): The Western Michigan pass defense is decent, but they havenāt faced a machine like the Falcons bring. This is a high-flying offense that loves to chuck the ball around. The Broncos will get some pressure on Johnson, but not enough to force him into a bad game. If the Broncos can hold him under 30 FanDuel points, they can consider it a success. They might be able to.
Dark Horse:
Ryan Graham, Northern Illinois ($6,700): With starter Drew Hare done for the year, it is Grahamās show now in DeKalb. He led the team to a victory over an undefeated Toledo team that beat Arkansas and Iowa State earlier this year. He didnāt post a monster stat line, but he was efficient. Buffalo is in the lower half in pass defense, so it is possible that the Huskies open up the offense a little more. He could be a nice low priced option.
My pick: Terrell
Next: Who Are The Best RB's?
Sep 26, 2015; Columbus, OH, USA; Western Michigan Broncos running back Jamauri Bogan (32) dives for the end zone past Ohio State Buckeyes safety Vonn Bell (11) at Ohio Stadium. Ohio State won the game 38-12. Mandatory Credit: Joe Maiorana-USA TODAY Sports
Running Back:
Best Bets:
Joel Bouagnon, Northern Illinois ($8,800): The Huskies could be forced to rely on Bouagnon a little more with Hare out. Toledo held him in check, but Buffalo has allowed 154 rushing yards per game. We should see Bouagnon back above 100 yards in this one once again.
Jamauri Bogan, Western Michigan ($7,700): Just the fact that Bogan has wrestled the starting running back job away from a back like Jarvion Franklin should tell you how good he is. If you still doubt it, look at his performance against Ball State. The 54 carries for 451 yards and nine touchdowns over the last four games also speaks volumes too. He could be a bargain at that price.
Honorable Mention:
Kareem Hunt, Toledo ($8,100): For the first time all season, Hunt looked like the back that gouged Arkansas State in the Godaddy.com Bowl last year. He is a supremely talented back. Central Michigan is 30th in the country in run defense, but I wonāt bet against a healthy Kareem Hunt. He will likely still produce at a good level.
Travis Greene, Bowling Green ($7,300): Greene is a nice start when the matchup is right. Against Western Michiganās 71st ranked run defense, he looked like a good play. He is not the number one, two, or even three option in this offense, but he still sees enough carries and targets to be a productive back.
Dark Horse:
Dazāmond Patterson, Ohio ($5,400): Patterson has emerged as the lead back in a crowded Ohio backfield. He is a bit touchdown dependent, but he has scored a touchdown in five straight games. If you need to go cheap, Patterson is the best of the bottom tier RBās.
My picks: Bogan and Patterson
Next: Is There A Better Option Than Roger Lewis?

Wide Receiver:
Best Bets:
Roger Lewis, Bowling Green ($8,900): There isnāt a defensive back in the MAC that can cover him one on one. There arenāt many tandems of DBās that can slow him either. Purdue and Tennessee are the only teams that have managed to contain him so far this year. Both have significantly better defensive units than Western Michigan. Look for another big game from Lewis.
Daniel Braverman, Western Michigan ($7,800): Most teams elect to run on Bowling Green, and the Broncos will as well, but they will still use Braverman heavily. He caught 13 balls against Michigan State and ten more against Ohio State. That gives you an indication of just how talented he is. In what promises to be a pretty close game, Braverman could have a huge game.
Honorable Mention:
Kenny Golladay, Northern Illinois ($6,900):Ā Golladay is on a roll lately, and even without Drew Hare under center, there is no reason for him not to continue his streak of five straight games with at least six catches. He was an instrumental part of the upset of Toledo. Look for him to have another solid game against Buffalo.
Sebastian Smith, Ohio ($5,700):Ā Despite all of the turnover at other offensive positions, Smith is firmly established as the number one receiver. He has caught at least five passes in four straight games, and is averaging 15.3 FanDuel points over that span. He could be a great bargain, even against a solid Kent defense.
Dark Horses:
Ron Willoughby, Buffalo ($5,800):Ā Willoughbyās three touchdown catches over the last two games prove that he is a target when the Bulls get near the end zone. That said, he has only caught five total passes in those games. He is completely touchdown dependent, but if you want to throw a dart, he could come through for you.
Antwan Dixon, Kent State ($4,700):Ā Dixon has caught ten passes and also picked up a carry over the last two games. That is really good production for someone this cheap, even though he has not managed to get into the end zone since October 3rd.
My picks:Ā Braverman, Golladay, and Dixon
Next: Can You Save Money At TE?

Tight End:
Best Bet:
Matt Weiser, Buffalo ($3,700):Ā There should only be one tight end on your radar in this tournament, and itās Weiser. He is the only proven, consistent option at the position. Weiser has caught at least four passes (and as many as ten) in each of his last six games. He will produce for you in some capacity.
Honorable Mention:
Ben McCord, Central Michigan ($2,900):Ā This is for those of you that donāt mind rolling the dice a little. McCord really has not been a big part of the offense in MAC play aside from his two touchdown performance against Western Michigan on October 10th. He also had a huge game against Syracuse early in the year, but the theme here is that the Chippewas donāt use him unless they need him. They may need him against Toledo.
Dark Horse:
Desroy Maxwell, Northern Illinois ($2,300):Ā A young quarterbackās best friend is his tight end. There is a good chance that new quarterback Ryan Graham will have to lean on Maxwell some, increasing his value. Then again, it is far from a certain thing.
My pick:Ā McCord
