This week, we are rolling with a few more lineups than usual. There is a fair amount of variety at quarterback. The lineups wound up largely being built around Leonard Fournette, Joe Mixon, Auden Tate and Tyler Eifert. So, apparently I am a big Bengals fan this week. Continue reading NFL DFS Week 5
Here are the confidence pool rankings for this week’s NFL slate. The one ranking I am a little leery of is New Orleans at home against Tampa.

We had a really good week here last week, going 32-16 against the spread, which brings us to 130-100 overall for the year, good for a 56.2 percent clip on the year. Last week’s pace is obviously not sustainable, but if we can keep that season-long percent above 55 percent, we are golden. Here are this week’s IAW spreads. I don’t remember ever having a week with this many road favorites.

We have a shakeup near the top this week. It was time to move Ohio State ahead of Clemson. The Tigers are still very, very good, but the elite play just hasn’t been there. This is a reflection of the performance, not the talent, however. Alabama has become the undisputed number one, with Clemson joining a tight pack of four others vying for 3-6.

Here is what I’m rolling with this week. Lots of Mahomes and Allen, who will both be huge chalk this week. Taking a chance on Ekeler for one more week, hoping they get up early and don’t rush Gordon back. I don’t normally roll with two TE lineups, but have a couple this week.

They did not play their sharpest game of the year, but an off night for the Fairfield Lady Mules is still good enough for a 25-12, 25-19 home conference win over Eldorado Thursday night. That was the second BDC win of the week for Chet Snyder’s squad, after they beat Hamilton County Tuesday on the road, 25-14, 25-11. Coming into the year, the Lady Foxes were thought to be the toughest challenge within conference play for Fairfield. On Thursday, Fairfield jumped out to an 8-1 lead, with Chloe Britton serving seven straight points. In that surge, Britton had two aces, … Continue reading Lady Mules Win Twice In Conference Play This Week
