There are just a couple of weeks in the college football season before it’s time to start thinking about bowl game match-ups. This is a perfect opportunity to bet on the sport this weekend, especially if you are looking to make player prop picks.
There are some big games set to take place and you can count on some of the top players in the country to be featured. Here are the five best CFB week 12 player prop picks.
Blake Shapen Over 211.5 Passing Yards (-115)
The Baylor Bears host the TCU Horned Frogs on Saturday and the home team is looking for a big upset. TCU comes into this game with a perfect record and they just continue to find ways to pass each test.
It’s going to take a big game from Baylor quarterback Blake Shapen to even keep this game close and they are likely to be behind at some point. Look for Shapen to throw for over 211.5 yards, as he tries to keep his team in it.
Bijan Robinson Over 106.5 Rushing Yards (-110)
The Texas Longhorns and Kansas Jayhawks meet up in a match-up of 6-4 teams. Both teams have had interesting seasons, but it just feels like Texas is the better overall team in this match-up.
This game has the potential to be a shootout, and the Longhorns have a weapon in running back Bijan Robinson. Look for the star running back to rack up at least 107 yards against a struggling Kansas defense.
Hendon Hooker Over 31.5 Rushing Yards (-115)
Tennessee vs. South Carolina Picks
The Tennessee Volunteers head to South Carolina to face the Gamecocks in a game that could turn into a blowout. Hendon Hooker is having a monster season for the Tennessee Volunteers and he can do more than just throw the football.
You can actually find some good odds for Hooker to run the football in this match-up and he will at least have a couple of big runs on Saturday. Take the over 31.5 rushing yards for the star QB.
Bo Nix Under 264.5 Passing Yards (-120)
The Oregon Ducks are hoping to bounce back after an upset loss in week 11 and they need quarterback Bo Nix to lead the way. Oregon has had a huge season on offense, but they actually do most of their damage on the ground.
The Ducks will get a solid game from Nix, but he just isn’t going to need to throw the ball a ton in this one. Take the under 264.5 passing yards on Saturday night.
Caleb Williams Under 295.5 Passing Yards (-115)
USC-UCLA might be the biggest game of the day and it looks as if it will be a high-scoring affair. USC quarterback Caleb Williams is putting up huge numbers for the Trojans, but things could be a bit more difficult in this game.
Williams also has plenty of running backs that can help him out and USC will be milking the clock late in the game. Take the under 295.5 passing yards for the Heisman Trophy candidate.
