Saturday CFB DFS Picks for Week 13 on PrizePicks: Look to Arch Manning

The college football regular season is nearly finished, with two weeks until the conference championships. With the College Football Playoff rankings out, every team knows its chances of competing for a National Championship, which could make the upcoming weeks exciting.

There are just two top-25 matchups this week, but they could shape the CFB Playoff picture. No. 7 Oregon is currently in the bracket, but it may not be able to afford another loss. No. 15 USC could spoil that and, in the process, make a case for itself to be in the final 12.

Elsewhere, No. 8 Oklahoma’s win over Alabama last week has put them in the conversation, and a win over No. 22 Missouri could help their cause.

Below, we'll dig into Saturday CFB picks for Week 13 in our cheat sheet and list the projections for the top players in college football. PrizePicks is the simplest way to win real money with your CFB picks. Just pick your players, predict More or Less on their projected stats, and cash in if your picks are correct.
