Start 2 Flex
Which 2 would you play in Flex in .5 PPR; Deuce Alexander vs Mizzou, Justin Bowick vs Houston, Nick Marsh vs Ohio St, Dylan Edwards vs Kan St, Jamal Rule vs Oregon, Jonaz Walton vs BYU. I'm thinking Alexander and Bowick. I don't like the matchups for Marsh and Rule. And, I'm not really ready to play Walton yet. Although, if I felt confident that Walton could get 100 yards and a TD then I could change my mind. Thanks.

Nebraska is a very good football team tbh it is criminal that they’re unranked. After Marsh’s performance against the Cornhuskers last week, I have no issue starting Marsh. Hoover isn’t very impressive but they’ll have to lean on the pass game to stand a chance against the Buckeyes. I’m starting Marsh this week myself.
Deuce Alexander would be my first pick out of these though. We’ve seen a stifling run defense from Mizzou against Florida. Ole Miss will need to rely on passing and that bodes well for Deuce this week.
Rule is volatile. He’s a feast or famine fantasy pick and lately it has been a famine.
I don’t trust any of the ND RBs, Walton included. They have too many RBs, all of them decent. It’s a toss-up on who gets the touches. From a coach’s perspective, why wouldn’t you keep all those guys active? It absolutely wears down opposing defenses, keeps your RB’s legs fresh, and keeps the defense guessing on who and where the next run is coming from. It’s unconventional but it’s making ND tough to beat.
Bowick would probably be my 3rd option. No arguments there he could easily have a huge game. He could easily have a dud, too. I mean, what was that Tulsa performance?
Dylan Edwards, it’s a rivalry game which could be huge or it could be a defensive grind. I don’t love that matchup.

Agree with you on starting Alexander and Bowick. Feel like the other four are pretty good plays, all with upside but also lower floors. Good luck with what you decide.
