He has been getting done on the ground all season with at least one rushing score and at least 11 rushing attempts against every FBS opponent OK State has faced. This could lead to TCU putting an added emphasis on Duggan's passing and a slight move away from the run game.Īs for Sanders, he faces a TCU defense that is slightly above average against both the run and the pass. He faces an Oklahoma State defense that is sturdy against the run but shaky against the pass, allowing 304 yards per game through the air. Duggan has caught fire of late and has averaged 38.1 DK Points over his last three outings he has 12 total touchdowns (3 rushing) and over 1,000 total yards in that stretch. It doesn't hurt that they're going head-to-head in the game with the highest total on the slate (68.5) while TCU checks in as 3.5-point favorites. These two hardly need an explanation at this point. Max Duggan ($8,000) TCU and Spender Sanders ($7,900) Jacoby Jones ($3,600) is coming off his best game of the season and is worth a look, too. Pairing Wiglusz with Ohio quarterback Kurtis Rourke ($6,200) creates a cheap stack with tons of upside as Rourke actually ranks sixth at his position on this slate in fantasy points per game and averages over 35 attempts per game. He isn't getting the absurd 15+ target-type games but he's seeing seven per game and catching 83 percent of them at 10.3 YPT. If you check out the targets page linked in the DFS tools and filter by this slate, you'll notice that Sam Wiglusz ($5,000) ranks 7th among this group of players in targets (42) and is tied for the lead in touchdowns. Western's defense hasn't been exceptional by any means 101st in scoring defense and 69th in total defense. The positive trend with his role in addition to the seemingly strong explosiveness make Sambucci an interesting GPP play in the mid-$3K range. Those seven catches have gone for 137 yards. Sambucci has caught just seven of 15 targets. He lags behind Crooms and Jehlani Galloway in target share but it's trending in the right direction with eight in his last game. $100 more for Quentin Johnston might be the better move, but $300 more for Mitchell Tinsley against Michigan wouldn't be.Īmong cheaper WMU options, Anthony Sambucci ($3,500) is interesting. If you have the $6,600 to spare for a WR, Crooms is a strong play. We'll take what the defense is giving us. The efficiency hasn't been great (50% catch rate, 6.8 YPT) but three touchdowns helps and it's worth noting that almost none of the WMU receivers have both strong volume and good efficiency. Let's see if we can get the right pieces from this game.Ĭorey Crooms ($6,600) is the leader of this group he has a 31% target share at 9.0 targets per game. Like 127th in scoring defense and 131s (that's dead last) in total defense. Six points against San Jose State is less so, but those Spartans actually rank ninth in the nation in scoring defense.Īnyway, back to this game. 13 points against Pittsburgh and Michigan State, respectively, is forgivable to an extent. Western Michigan does not have a great scoring offense (105th), and we can only excuse so much of it from its non-conference schedule. The total is 58.5, which isn't as high as some of the others on this slate, but By George at least it's not the 39.5 we're getting for Illinois-Minnesota. Illinois on this slate, so I guess they owed us. Shoutout to the slate makers for letting us get warmed up to some MACtion instead of going with some uninteresting game with name brands and little else.
