Trying a different format for the Friday Main Slate. Let us know on theCFFsite Discord or DM if this would be preferred moving into 2025, or should we stick with my traditional format? –Mike–
CORE PLAYS:
Quarterback:
Shedeur Sanders, Colorado ($9,200) We love playing Sanders from both a consistency and upside standpoint. 20 or more fantasy points now in all but one game this season, facing an Oklahoma State defense that is bad versus the run and pass. The Cowboys are 121st in EPA per pass play, allowing close to 26 FPPG. Four of the last five quarterbacks to play Oklahoma State this season have scored at least 22 fantasy points in their respective matchups.
MID-TIER ALTERNATIVES:
Running Back:
Quinton Cooley, Liberty – I didn’t include Cooley as a core play because of Sam Houston’s run defense, allowing just 19.3 FPPG to opposing backfields and second in CUSA in yards allowed per game on the ground. The advanced metrics don’t like the Bearkats run defense as much, ranked 102nd in rush D success and 68th in EPA per run play. That said, Liberty is just bludgeoning opponents on the ground of late, averaging over six yards a carry in each of the last three games with a combined 12 rushing touchdowns. Cooley has accounted for half of those, with his volume also up. Cooley is close to a core play at RB. We’re not opposed to either stacking Billy Lucas with Cooley, given how much Liberty keeps the ball on the ground, or pivoting to the RB2 as he has over 230 rushing yards in the last two weeks.
BARGAIN BIN:
Receiver/Tight End:
Kole Wilson, Texas State – With or without Joey Hobert in the lineup, this is a ridiculous price for Wilson who plays close to 90% of the team’s offensive snaps each week. Wilson did not emerge as a weekly fantasy starter like we expected in the preseason, but still leads all Texas State wideouts in routes, while second in targets (64). Not sure why a player like WR Chris Dawn is also $3,100 despite catching three touchdown passes a week ago. Lot of options with the Texas State WR room.
GAME STACKS:
- Texas State / South Alabama
