Early College football DFS picks December 5: Win with Kyren

We have a monster early college football DFS on DraftKings this week. There are 15 scheduled games, and as of right now, only CCU and Liberty are off. However, BYU will head east to Conway to play the Chanticleers, so let’s hope that’s a late game that DraftKings can put on some slate.

As for what we do have, the Ohio State outbreak must not have been nearly as bad as they thought since they are back in action in Spartyville. The bad part is that we don’t know which players tested positive for the virus and may not know until right before kickoff. The university is keeping it close to the vest.

Two of the most electric players in the Big Ten(14) face off when Nebraska heads to Purdue. Texas heads to the Little Apple to try and keep their slim Big 12 Championship hopes alive. TCU gets to try and prove that their offensive outburst last week wasn’t a fluke against a defense with a pulse in Oklahoma State. The Irish welcome the Orange in what should be a nice fall colors game with all of the gold and orange to go around.

The loaded afternoon starts off with Florida heading up I-75 to Knoxville. Iowa State can clinch a Big 12(10) title game berth against West Virginia. Indiana heads west to Wisconsin to take on the enigmatic Badgers. Iowa’s poor passing game tries to get on track against Lovie Smith and Illinois. Virginia welcomes the suddenly pass-happy Boston College squad.

We end the afternoon with Stanford heading up the coast to Seattle and the Bees heading up to Raleigh. There are marquee names and lesser known names that can decide this slate. Let’s try and discern which is which.

Last night was a strong night despite zeroes across the board from JaJuan Johnson. We wont be able to get away with zeroes  on this slate.

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. College football DFS scoring realizes that!
