DFS College Football: PrizePicks Selections for Week 7

DFS College Football: PrizePicks Selections for Week 7

This article is part of our DFS College Football series.

Each week throughout the college football season I share my favorite player props as part of our DFS College Football: PrizePicks Selections series.

For Week 7, I've combed through the Picks & Props tool again and found my favorite passing, rushing and receiving props.

QB Hajj-Malik Williams, UNLV

I missed on my Williams pick last week, but I'm going back for more. Last week, his pass yard total on PrizePicks was 184.5, as neither he nor fellow QB Matthew Sluka had even attempted more than 18 passes in a game for UNLV this season. The Rebels have run the ball on 67 percent of their plays. In a shootout with Syracuse, they ended up opening up the passing game and throwing it 25 times for 227 yards.

This Friday night as a 19-point favorite against Utah State, UNLV should be able to lean back into their run-heavy scheme. At RotoWire, we project Williams to finish with about 175 pass yards.

CFB PrizePicks Selection: Hajj-Malik Williams LESS than 198.5 pass yards

RB DJ Giddens, Kansas State

Kansas State is another run-heavy offense, only throwing on 42% of offensive plays. Meanwhile, Colorado is in the bottom-half of the country in run defense. 

Giddens is coming off his best game of the season, accumulating 205 total yards and a touchdown, and he's averaging over 120 rush yards per game this season. Nobody wants to get into a shootout with Colorado, and the best way to avoid that is to keep QB Shedeur Sanders off the field with ball control on offense.

CFB PrizePicks Selection: DJ Giddens MORE than 99.5 rush yards

WR Jeremiah Hunter, Washington

Washington's offense may not be as pass-heavy as in previous years, but the Huskies are still in the top one-third in the country in pass play percentage. Denzel Boston and Giles Jackson see the majority of the targets, but Hunter sees enough volume to expect at least two or three catches for over 26 yards.

Iowa's run defense is one of the best in the country, so I expect Washington to lean into the passing game even more, opening up more opportunities for the veteran receiver. Other pick'em sites have his yardage total at 28.5, so we're finding some value on PrizePicks.
