Week 9 College Football Player Props

This Saturday has brought upon us another massive slate of college football, and I plan to enjoy every minute of it. What better way to enjoy it then have a couple bets on some player props you can sit back and watch for the day. The best thing about the three plays that I have is they are somewhat spread out so you can catch the action live for all 3 of them. The 3 games start at 2:30, 7, and 8. Lets get right into the plays.

Mohamed Ibrahim Under 118.5 Rushing Yards (-115) 1U

Ibrahim has been nothing short of awesome so far this year. He has rushed for over 100 yards in every contest so far this year. This week is a different animal with the Gophers facing the Scarlet Knights who boast the the 6th ranked rushing defense in terms of yards per rush this season. Tanner Morgan is questionable to play in this game which gives Rutgers the ability to focus in on Ibrahim and keep the ball out of his hands. I think this number is a little to inflated to be facing this defense. Take the under here.

Chris Rodriquez Jr. Over 93.5 Rushing Yards (-115) 1U

This play is strictly a play on what I believe the mindset of the Mark Stoops and the Kentucky Wildcats will be against the Vols. Mark and everyone else in the country know they can not and will not win this game if it gets to be a track meet. I think this will result in the Wildcats playing a slow and methodical game on the offensive side of the ball with a lot of running the football. Tennessee has actually been really solid against the run so far this year but a lot of it has been against inferior opponents. The games they have played against teams with solid running games (Alabama and Pittsburgh) they gave up about 250 in total between the 2. I think CRJ gets the ball a lot here and gets closer to his season average (132 yds/game) then the 93.5 we need to hit this bet. Take the over.

Israel Abanikanda Over 124.5 Rushing Yards (-113) 2U

This bet might be my favorite bet of the night. Israel Abanikanda has been if not the best, one of the best running backs in the country this year. The man gets a massive amount of work each week and delivers time and time again. He has a dream matchup this week against the UNC Tar Heels who are fielding the 113 ranked defense in terms of yards per rush in the country. They have given up big play after big play in the rushing game this year but have been bailed out by one of the best offenses in the country. I expect Pat Narduzzi to give Abanikanda the rock at least 30 times in this one to try and keep the dynamic UNC offense off the field. This is a home run spot for Abanikanda and I expect him to knock it out of the park. Take the over.
