College Football DFS Picks: DraftKings Expert Survey for New Year’s Day Slate

Who is your favorite player for optimal lineups?

headChopper: Bucky Irving
STLCardinals84: Bucky Irving
kmurray03: Bucky Irving

Which useful trend or statistic stuck out most during your research?

headChopper: With five games on the slate, one of them is a 35.5 total and one is a 44.5 total. An Iowa game hasn’t exceeded 28 total points of actual scoring in the last seven games.

STLCardinals84: Over Iowa’s last seven games, not a single game has finished with 30+ total points. It’s an incredible run that we may never see again in college football. This is effectively a four-game slate, and I won’t have any rosters with more than one player from the IOWA/TENN game.

kmurray03: Washington has faced some strong offenses this season, with some having success against them, and they will face another here in Texas. So far this season, Washington has allowed over 300 yards per game and nearly 24 points per game. I will be expecting more production than that from this Texas team, as this game has a 63.5-point total.

What is your favorite correlation on the slate and why?
