Early DraftKings college football picks October 26: Breece yourself

We have another chock full 12 game DraftKings college football contest to open up our Saturday. Oklahoma faces their toughest defensive test of the season so far when they head to the Little Apple. Texas heads north to Ft. Worth to take on the tough Toadies defense.

More from DraftKings

Oh, we have SEC and Big Ten(14) action too! Wisconsin and Ohio State. LSU hosting Auburn in a clash of the Tigers. Minnesota is off to their best start since their championship in 1960 and hosting a Maryland defense that is full of issues.

There are a lot of good defenses on this slate, so it seems wise to concentrate mostly on the Big 12(10) games and a few other isolated spots. I’m not actively targeting LSU, Michigan State, Penn State, or Ohio State.

I did well on the early slate last week by using several variations of a core lineup around Hurts, Breece Hall, and SaRodorick Thompson. All but one of my six lineups cashed.

The scoring for DraftKings college football is much the same as it is for the NFL with one notable exception: the super flex! That means aside from the flex position which is RB/WR, you can add another player from any position! Want four running backs? Go right ahead! Five wide receivers? Sure! Two quarterbacks? Of course! Just stay under the salary cap!

The super flex replaces the defense, which is essential in college football. This is all about the offense. DraftKings college football scoring realizes that!
