*Numbers are subject to change*
WR Mike Evans, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
MORE THAN 71.5 Receiving Yards
Mike Evans is now back and healthy without Chris Godwin there to eat up his production. This week, 71.5 feels like a very low number to me after he came off of an eight-catch, 118-yard performance, and I’m ready to jump all over that.
Cam Skattebo, RB, Arizona State
MORE THAN 120.5 Rushing Yards
If not for Ashton Jeanty, Skattebo would be considered one of the premier running backs in college football. He is seventh in the country with 127.09 rushing yards per game and 22.45 attempts per game. He is squaring off this week with an incredible matchup against a 3-3-5 Iowa State defense that is 112th in the country in yards per carry allowed and is one of only 23 teams in the FBS to be allowing more than 5.0 yards per carry.
Abu Sama III, RB, Iowa State
MORE THAN 32.5 Rushing Yards
Iowa State needs to control the football if the Cyclones want to win this game. Last week, they recognized that and gave Sama 15 carries. While it is a crowded backfield with Carson Hansen, I believe that Sama can reach this number in the proper game script.
Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State
MORE THAN 0.5 Rush + Receiving TD
Tyler Warren has undoubtedly been one of the best tight ends in all of college football this year. He has accumulated 10 touchdowns in 12 games for the Nittany Lions. The best tight end that Oregon faced this year was Michigan’s Colston Loveland, who garnered 112 yards on seven receptions vs. the Ducks. If Loveland can take advantage of those mismatches, I anticipate Warren doing the same and finding paydirt.
Bryson Daily, QB, Army
MORE THAN 132.5 Rushing Yards
If you haven’t watched a lot of Army football this year, there is a good chance you’ve never heard of Daily. This man is an absolute menace on the ground. The Army QB already has over 1,300 yards on the season and has hit MORE THAN 132.5 rushing yards in seven of his last eight games. While Tulane’s defense looks really impressive metrically on paper, they are only 43rd in opponent-adjusted defensive efficiency. I have to imagine that Daily gets a lot of opportunities on the ground in this game.
Lawson Luckie, TE, Georgia
MORE THAN 20.5 Receiving Yards
While Georgia’s receivers have been somewhat underwhelming this year, I’d argue that the Bulldogs have underutilized the weapons they have at tight end. Aside from Oscar Delp and Benjamin Yurosek, Luckie is averaging over 14.0 yards per catch this season and has slowly been more involved in the offense week by week. In fact, last week was the first week where Luckie out-snapped Delp and Yurosek since Week 5. If Georgia wants to have a chance in this game offensively, they must get a guy like Luckie involved.
Tre Stewart, RB, Jacksonville State - MORE THAN 106.5 Rushing Yards
Cam Camper, WR, Boise State - MORE THAN 4.5 Receptions
Bert Auburn, K, Texas - MORE THAN 6.5 Kicking Points
Carson Beck, QB, Georgia - MORE THAN 33.5 Pass Attempts
Elijah Young, RB, Western Kentucky - MORE THAN 14.5 Rush Attempts
