Underdog Fantasy College Football Picks: Week Two
Matt Dewoskin Underdog Fantasy College Football Pick Em Record (Est 8/22/2025)
All Pick Em Selections: 4-2-0
Perfect 3-0 Pick Em Entries: 1-1
Jalon Daniels Higher Than 28.5 Rushing Yards
Kansas quarterback Jalon Daniels appears to be fully healthy, and we’ll want to take advantage in a matchup against Missouri. Daniels has played twice in 2025, and he’s gone higher than 28.5 rushing yards once this year. Daniels racked up 47 rushing yards against Fresno State, but only managed 18 yards in a blowout against Wagner.
Missouri played Central Arkansas in Week One. The Tigers won by 55 points, but Bears quarterback Luther Richesson managed to rack up 32 yards on the ground. Daniels is a willing runner when healthy, and Kansas is known to draw up an occasional designed run for him. He went higher than 27.5 rushing yards in seven out of 12 games played last year.
Central Arkansas was able to find limited success on the ground against Missouri. Daniels is a legitimate threat with his legs, has shown a willingness to run, and can rack up yards on the ground. He should be able to find room on designed runs and scrambles in this matchup. A rushing yards total of only 28.5 is a little too low for this spot, and you’ll want to add it to your Underdog Fantasy college football entry.
Will Ferrin Higher Than 3.5 XP Made
BYU just finished wrecking Portland State in a game that saw Cougars kicker Will Ferrin go 9-for-9 in extra point attempts. Ferrin went higher than 3.5 extra points made in two out of three non-conference games last year. He only went lower in a road spot at SMU.
This week? Stanford travels to Provo, UT. Stanford has lost to Hawaii in Week Zero and stayed home for Week One. BYU is a lot more physical than Stanford, they have a better coach, and they have a better roster.
The team total for the BYU Cougars in this matchup is 33.5 points. The books are expecting the Cougars to score at least four touchdowns.
Ferrin is also 82-for-83 on extra point attempts in his career, so accuracy isn’t an issue.
The Cougars will find the end zone at least four times, and Ferrin will knock in an extra point every time. This one could get out of hand for Stanford, and you’ll want to lock up Ferrin to go higher than 3.5 made extra points in your Underdog Fantasy college football entry.
Diego Pavia Higher Than 242.5 Pass + Rush Yards
We just watched Virginia Tech struggle to contain South Carolina’s dual-threat quarterback, LaNorris Sellers. They get to face Vanderbilt and Diego ‘Pissin’ Pavia this week.
Pavia racked up over 290 yards through the air and on the ground against Virginia Tech last year. He threw for 190 yards and ran for another 104 in an upset win. Pavia just went for over 300 passing and rushing yards against Charleston Southern last week. He only went higher than 242.5 passing and rushing yards in only five out of 13 games last year. However, a lot of his misses came against SEC defenses. Against non-conference opponents, Pavia went higher than 242.5 passing and rushing yards in four out of five non-conference games last year, including the Birmingham Bowl.
Last year’s matchup against Virginia Tech put Pavia on the map, and this is the last time he’ll get to face the Hokies. Pavia appears to be healthy, and he’s had success in this spot previously. This game will likely end up as a close one, and Pavia should get plenty of chances to rack up yards against a leaky Hokies defense.
Lock up Pavia to go higher than 242.5 passing and rushing yards against the Hokies on Saturday, and make sure he’s in your Underdog Fantasy college football entry.
