I’ve covered Weeks 12 and 14, but what about the best game stacks of Week 13? Well, I finally got around to this magical week of college football and think there are plenty of players and games I want to keep in the back of my mind when drafting on Underdog Fantasy.
We have targeted a lot of Big 12 and ACC matchups in the playoffs, but I think the SEC and Big Ten have a few games that’ll surely be exciting for us from a fantasy perspective.
Purdue at Michigan State
Finally, all those Hudson Card, Devin Mockobee, and Jahmal Edrine shares come into play! Purdue poses an excellent option to draft late because of unique bye weeks and their playoff schedule. Michigan State shouldn’t pose a threat defensively, and they have some talented players offensively that could result in a super high-scoring game here. I’d even add Max Klare, the starting tight end who caught 22 passes for 196 yards in five games last season, as a player worth drafting.
Aidan Chiles has the raw talent for Michigan State to break a game, and Jack Veiling is another tight end who could be in for a big year. I love the potential of a super cheap game stack with Purdue/MSU.
Arizona at TCU
If you’re like many of the Campus2Canton content providers, you have plenty of Josh Hoover, Cam Cook, and Drake Dabney. This is partially why. The type of volume each of these players could have mixed with a prime matchup in the playoffs is part of why we love each of these guys so much.
Arizona has plenty of talent to create a high-scoring affair. This is the type of game you need Noah Fifita to be a part of: a high-flying shootout with volume beats relying on rushing usage. Tet McMillan should be fully healthy and past injuries at this point in the season, and multiple cheap receiver targets are valuable late adds.
Texas Tech at Oklahoma State
The hype is building for Josh Kelly, the likely WR1 for Texas Tech, and maybe Behren Morton is healthy. Morton’s ADP of mid-to-late teen rounds makes him an appealing option, and if you go that route, you need Kelly for the stack.
Oklahoma State is battling injury news with Ollie Gordon, and while this feels like a situation where we’re lucky enough to avoid a major issue, the Cowboys’ passing attack consistently pops up for me as a fun pivot in these tournaments.
Colorado at Kansas
As we’ve often said, Colorado doesn’t play defense, so let’s load up on their opponents. Kansas has the options at all positions, and we wouldn’t be surprised if this matchup ends at 38-35. Jalon Daniels has two cheap options: Lawrence Arnold and Luke Grimm. And you can’t forget about superstar Devin Neal at running back.
For Colorado, the options are obvious. Shedeur Sanders will cost a pretty penny for a statue quarterback, but the volume could be there. LaJohntay Wester is the guy I’d want to target in this scenario because Travis Hunter could be exhausted this late in the season. Jimmy Horn Jr. and Will Sheppard also come into play as well.
Alabama at Oklahoma
What a fun matchup this will be, minus the fantasy potential. Two super traditional college football teams playing a likely meaningful SEC game will be exciting. Add that Jalen Milroe to Germie Bernard, and it could be the stack of the year going up against Jackson Arnold and Deion Burks, and we have ourselves fantasy gold. The passing attacks should be firing on all cylinders this late in the season, and we could even get a viable triple stack if you throw in Gavin Sawchuk for the Sooners. I love the upside of what this game could provide for us in the playoffs.
