Did you think our college football DFS coverage was done for the day? Just because most of the world goes to bed before the late night slate doesn't mean that I do! College football addicts and DFS degenerates unite! It's not over until we say it is!
Last week's late night slate was insane with 200 points not even cashing thanks to a 60-spot from Tyler Allgeier. I don't think we have anything like that on this slate, but we still have some good ones. We start off with Nevada hosting San Jose State. UTSA heads over to El Paso for a rivalry game against the Miners. We add some Pac 12 flavor
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy college football lineup picks for DraftKings that locks at 10pm eastern on 11/6/21. I’ll be providing multiple player suggestions for players at guard and forward, aiming to highlight one option apiece at the high, middle, and lower end of the salary scale. Good luck, RotoBallers.

DraftKings CFB DFS Quarterbacks
Frank Harris, UTSA ($6,900)
I don't see any slam-dunk options at quarterback, so I'm siding with the guy who can make plays with his legs and doesn't really make mistakes. Harris has thrown 16 touchdowns to just three interceptions and has 270 rushing yards with two more touchdowns on the ground. The UTEP defense has been surprisingly good, but this UTSA team is deep and talented. Trust me on this. I've watched them enough over the last couple of years to know.
Lucas Johnson, San Diego State ($5,300)
Johnson played well enough with Jordon Brookshire out that he retained the starting job. Johnson is more efficient, and he can create with his legs when he needs to. Johnson can attack this porous Hawaii defense in either manner, giving him some hidden value here. His ceiling was probably around the 15.8 DraftKings points that he had against Fresno last week, but that's good enough for this price.
Also consider: Carson Strong, Nevada ($8,800); Jaxson Dart, USC ($6,700); Nick Nash, San Jose State ($5,900)

DraftKings CFB DFS Running Backs
Sincere McCormick, UTSA ($8,000)
UTEP has done a solid job defensively, but they haven't faced a back like McCormick yet. He's the UTSA workhorse. The only game in which he didn't log more than 20 carries against a FBS opponent was against Rice when the Roadrunners scored 45 points. This game promises to stay closer, and McCormick is like a battering ram. He can do a whole lot of damage with a guaranteed 20 carries.
Calvin Turner Jr., Hawaii ($7,400)
If you want to play six wide receivers, here's your chance. Turner is listed as a running back on DraftKings, and while he still gets carries, he splits out at receiver more often than not. He's a matchup nightmare for just about everyone. He has at least 17 DraftKings points in every game this season. His abilities and Hawaii's willingness to move him all around on the defense makes him a safe play, even against this defense.
Tyler Nevens, San Jose State ($4,900)
The main risk here is that Nevada jumps out fast and the Spartans have to abandon the run. While that is possible, I don't consider it likely. Nevens wont break a slate, but he is steady production at a low price against a Nevada defense that has had some issues this year. The price mitigates the risk.
Also consider: Rachaad White, Arizona State ($8,200); Deion Hankins, UTEP ($6,000); Toa Taua, Nevada ($5,600); Greg Bell, San Diego State ($5,200)
DraftKings CFB DFS Wide Receivers
Romeo Doubs, Nevada ($8,100)
Doubs has the highest ceiling of anyone. The bad news is that Nevada has a lot of good receivers and if the defense locks in on Doubs, Carson Strong isn't afraid to go elsewhere. He trusts all of them. UNLV decided they weren't going to let Doubs beat them, but he still came away with 15.8 DraftKings points. Three of his four touchdowns have come in the last three games. He should find the end zone again here.
Cole Turner, Nevada ($7,300)
Turner has been the receiver of choice for the Wolf Pack lately. He has 27 receptions for 343 yards and four touchdowns. That include the Fresno game in which Doubs hauled in 19 of 20 targets! If you go cheap on quarterbacks, stacking the Nevada receivers seems like a good idea here. As good as the San Jose State defense has been at times, they can't guard both of them.
Zakhari Franklin, UTSA ($6,000)
The UTEP pass defense is better than it has been in years, but Franklins has still put up strong numbers in every game but the Rice game. 13 against Western Kentucky is his low in the rest of the contests. That's still a nice outing for the price here. I don't know that I would stack UTSA here, but if you use Frank Harris, I would double down with Franklin. If you need the extra cash, Joshua Cephus leads the team in receptions, but he is decidedly less explosive.
Tahj Washington, USC ($4,400)
The Memphis transfer soaked up seven targets last week after Drake London left the game. Past stats mean little since London was getting 15+ targets per game. The nice increase for Washington without the price increase of Gary Bryant Jr. is what's enticing to me. Washington is going to get quite a few targets and is by far my favorite value play on the slate. Enjoy the free space!
Also consider: Derrick Deese Jr., San Jose State ($6,500); Jacob Cowing, UTEP ($6,100); Melquan Stovall, Nevada ($5,800); LV Bunkley-Shelton, Arizona State ($4,300)
