CFB DFS Week 8 Tuesday Night Slate Overview

Top CFB DFS Week 8 Tuesday Night Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel 

Quarterback

Jaylen Raynor, Arkansas State (DK $7,500, FD $10,600) @ South Alabama

A decent pass defense and one of the best quarterbacks collide in this matchup, making it a great time to roll with Raynor despite the slightly elevated cost. The junior has eight passing touchdowns and four rushing touchdowns this season, and he's responsible for 1,645 yards of total offense through six games. South Alabama allows an average of 6.1 yards per carry, so Raynor will be able to flash both sides of his dual-threat skill set.

Maverick McIvor, Western Kentucky (DK $7,800, FD $10,100) vs. FIU

The Hilltoppers have one of the most productive offenses on the slate, and although FIU is no slouch defensively, they've surrendered some monster numbers to tougher opponents. Western Kentucky is also a heavy home favorite, and they compile points primarily through the air. Although I'm not completely sold on utilizing two quarterbacks for Tuesday, McIvor's floor is very safe, and he's a very smart approach to the position.

Running Back

Kentrel Bullock, South Alabama (DK $5,500, FD $9,400) vs. Arkansas State

I don't think Bullock is the best back on this

Running Back

Kentrel Bullock, South Alabama (DK $5,500, FD $9,400) vs. Arkansas State

I don't think Bullock is the best back on this slate, and he does have a bit of a timeshare with PJ Martin (DK $4,300, FD $5,800). Still, Arkansas State's run defense is a great unit to target this week, and Bullock represents a solid beneficiary. He has 496 yards and five touchdowns over 6 games, and I'd only consider his counterpart if you're desperate for cap relief.

Kejon Owens, FIU (DK $5,900, FD $9,000) @ Western Kentucky

Although this game isn't set up positively for FIU, I believe Owens is the strongest running back you can grab for Tuesday night. His salaries fit nicely with the rest of our build, and on FanDuel, he's slightly lower than Bullock. His numbers jump around a bit, but he averages 6.1 yards per carry and carries explosive upside.

Also consider: Caden Williams, Liberty (DK $4,400, FD $6,500) vs. New Mexico State

Wide Receiver

K.D. Hutchinson, Western Kentucky (DK $6,800, FD $7,600) vs. FIU

If you're going with McIvor, Hutchinson is a decent stack, but he'll work just as well independently. Hutchinson is listed as a placeholder, as the Hilltoppers spread the ball around a lot, and I'm fine with the other targets, Moussa Barry or Matthew Henry. Barry is also much cheaper than Hutchinson, so he's a better budget flier. The target score among the three is also very similar.

Corey Rucker, Arkansas State (DK $5,500, FD $8,100) @ South Alabama

Rucker is your stack candidate for Raynor, although Chauncy Cobb (DK $3,600, FD $7,200) has also had his share of productive games. It might be too ambitious to triple-stack the team, but you'd end up ahead of the field if the O/U of 59 holds up in this matchup. The Red Wolves could be playing from behind, and they'll need to get vertical to keep up.

Also consider: Devin Voisin, South Alabama (DK $4,400, FD $8,800) vs. Arkansas State
