DFS Picks of the Week: Our top Underdog plays for college and NFL, Nov. 23-24
By Adam Spencer
Published:
The college football regular season only has 2 weekends left, which is bittersweet. Where does the time go? Fortunately, the NFL regular season still has several weeks left before everything is said and done.
That means there’s still plenty of time for DFS players to win some money, and our DFS experts — Andrew Olson and Adam Spencer — are here to help.
Last week, the guys finished 5 Kareem Hunt rushing yards away from a perfect 10-for-10 weekend of picks! They’ll try to do it again this week, handing out their 3 favorite college football picks and top 2 NFL picks for the weekend, via Underdog Fantasy.
Keep reading below to see who the guys like this weekend.

Our Week 13 CFB Picks
Andrew Olson
Elijhah Badger, Florida WR: Higher than 56.5 receiving yards
Ole Miss’s pass defense numbers in 4 games away from home have not been great. Two things we’ve learned about DJ Lagway: He throws the deep ball well and he often targets Badger. I like Badger, who is averaging 76.8 yards per game on 23 yards per catch, to get 57 on Saturday.
Xavier Restrepo, Miami WR: Higher than 90.5 receiving yards
Restrepo once again has a high bar to clear, but considering the matchup, it’s easy to see why. ACC opponents are averaging 42 passing attempts per game against Wake Forest. The other times the Demon Deacons faced ranked teams this season, they allowed 377 passing yards to Ole Miss and 343 to Clemson. Cam Ward and company – especially Restrepo – should feast.
Omarion Hampton, North Carolina RB: Higher than 0.5 rush+receiving TDs
Hampton made it 7 rushing scores in his last 3 games with 244-yard performance against Wake Forest. Now he gets to face a Boston College defense that has allowed 10 rushing scores in its last 4 outings. I like both streaks to continue.
Adam Spencer
Jaxson Dart, Ole Miss QB: Higher than 2.5 pass TDs
I think the Gators come down to earth a little bit after last week’s big win over LSU. Dart, meanwhile, is perhaps the best QB in the SEC. He’s thrown for 3 or more touchdowns 3 times this year. I like him to do it a fourth time on Saturday afternoon in The Swamp.
Kaleb Johnson, Iowa RB: Higher than 120.5 rush yards
Johnson only ran for 49 yards in his last outing at UCLA, but the Hawkeyes are coming off a bye, so he should be well-rested and ready to get back to his dominant ways. Maryland’s run defense is… so-so, I guess… but the Terps haven’t faced a threat like Johnson yet.
Quintrevion Wisner, Texas RB: Higher than 60.5 rush yards
Wisner’s rushing yards totals have been all over the place recently, but against Kentucky, I expect him to go off. This is a Wildcats defense that recently allowed Jarquez Hunter to run for 278 yards and then let Dylan Sampson put up 142 yards the very next week. Look for Wisner to manage at least 61 yards on Saturday afternoon.
Our Week 12 NFL Picks
Andrew Olson
Travis Kelce, Kansas City Chiefs TE: Higher than 60.5 receiving yards
You need to calm down about Kelce’s poor showing against Buffalo. Kelce is going to shake it off with a big Week 12, as we know all too well that the Panthers struggle to contain tight ends.
Bo Nix, Denver Broncos QB: Higher than 213.5 pass yards
Nix is coming off the best game of his career and now heads to Las Vegas. The Raider passing defense has given up an average of 255 passing yards over the last 3 games. I like Nix to stay hot.
Adam Spencer
Baker Mayfield, Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB: Higher than 1.5 pass TDs
The Giants, on paper, have a fairly good pass defense. But… that’s mostly because teams are leading the Giants in the second half and focus on running the ball to grind out the clock. Look for Mayfield, who has the third-most pass TDs in the league this year (behind only Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson) to throw for a couple of scores early.
Jayden Daniels, Washington Commanders QB: Higher than 219.5 pass yards
Daniels hasn’t reached 220 pass yards in any of his last 3 games. But those games were against Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and the aforementioned Giants. This weekend, he gets to face a porous Dallas Cowboys defense. I think he’ll put up some big-time numbers en route to a Washington victory.
