After a Week 10 board that was so close to paying us out generational wealth, this week’s board seems to have quite a few good plays despite Texas A&M having a bye week. With 2024’s first college football playoff rankings being revealed, all eyes are on these last few weeks of the season. I’m here to help you navigate the Week 11 boards with some great value plays.

*Numbers are subject to change*

Aggie of the Week

RB De’Von Achane
MORE THAN 60.5 Rushing Yards
When you lose Aaron Donald and Ernest Jones in one offseason, your run defense is going to suffer. The Rams are 24th in rushing yards allowed per game. The Dolphins, on the other hand, have shown a tremendous ability to run the ball effectively and often. Even with Mostert eating up some of Achane’s carries, the rushing number for Achane being 60.5 is still far too low.

Lineup of the Week

De’Von Achane, RB, Miami Dolphins
MORE THAN 60.5 Rushing Yards
For all of the reasons above, this is in my lineup of the week.

Katin Houser, QB, East Carolina
MORE THAN 247.5 Passing Yards
Former ECU head coach Mike Houston is out at East Carolina, and this team looks better for it. Michigan State transfer Katin Houser has only started three games this season but has continually gotten better every week. FAU has also allowed 38-plus points in each of their last three games. I anticipate that this ECU offense continues to put up numbers on a less than impressive defense.

Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
MORE THAN 327.5 Passing Yards
Texas Tech is 133rd in the country in opponent passing yards per game. Colorado is eighth in the country in passing yards per game. This is a very favorable matchup for Colorado and Shedeur Sanders has sneakily been playing some of the better football of any quarterback in the country. 327.5 passing yards is a big number, and Colorado has been more keyed in on running the football these last two games. However, I still think this number is hit with flying colors.

Tahj Brooks, RB, Texas Tech
LESS THAN 126.5 Rushing Yards
Colorado’s defensive improvement has been very impressive this season. While it isn’t perfect, I’m counting on Colorado getting an early lead in this one and Tech having to play catch up. The best run defense that Brooks played against all season is Arizona State, and it took him 27 carries to get to 117 rushing yards. I don’t anticipate Brooks even having 27 carries in a game that they’re trailing in. 126.5 rushing yards is already a huge number, but the game script will likely help us hit this LESS THAN as well.

Garrett Nussmeier, QB, LSU
MORE THAN 288.5 Passing Yards
Alabama is just in love with giving up explosive plays this season. Going into the season, the secondary was already a question mark. Fortunately for Alabama, their pass rush has helped alleviate this stress. But with LSU’s sturdy offensive line and Nussmeier’s ability to get rid of the ball quickly, I anticipate Nussmeier and this LSU offense will have a field day in Death Valley this Saturday.

Other Dawson Selections

Kyren Lacy, WR, LSU - MORE THAN 26.5 Yards on Longest Reception
Jalen Milroe, QB, Alabama - LESS THAN 1.5 Passing TDs
Germie Bernard, WR, Alabama - MORE THAN 55.5 Receiving Yards
Hank Bachmeier, QB, Wake Forest - MORE THAN 228.5 Passing Yards
Jalen Buckley, RB, Western Michigan - LESS THAN 0.5 Rush + Rec TDs
