Looking for an advantage? NCAAF Props could be your jam. With a seemingly endless number of college teams to track (and scarce public information on some of them), sportsbooks can slip up and offer exploitable lines for college football player props.
Of course, the lack of information makes finding these college football prop bets frustrating (and sometimes tricky), but that’s where we come in.
You can always find these wagers on traditional sportsbooks (FanDuel, BetMGM, DraftKings, Fliff) or play them on DFS sites (PrizePicks, Sleeper Fantasy, Dabble).
College Football Player Props: Bowl Season
We are 28-16 and +12.15 units on college football props this season.
Let’s run through this week’s top college football prop bets: Dec. 20-21.
Clemson QB Cade Klubnik Over 216.5 Pass Yards (-114)
Game: Clemson @ Texas | Saturday, Dec. 21 | 4 ET
Klubnik has gone over this prop in 8 of his last 10 games. This looks like a pass-heavy game script with Clemson checking in as 12-point underdogs. Also, Texas ranks 7th in rush defense, so the Tigers will need to air it out.
Klubnik has gone over this in 8-of-9 games with at least 30 pass attempts, which should be a given here.
Where to place: Cade Klubnik Over 216.5 Pass Yd | -114 at Rebet
Penn State WR Tyler Warren Over 70.5 Rec Yd (-115)
Game: SMU at Penn State | Saturday, Dec. 21 | noon ET
Warren has gone over this in 4 of his last 5 games while averaging 91.2 receiving yards in that span. His lone miss was close at 68 yards.
Now he’s facing an SMU team that ranks 94th in pass defense, giving him a clear path to the over.

College Football Prop Betting Guide
Diving into NCAAF Props can sometimes be challenging, but it’s not impossible. Finding reliable information on NCAAF Player Props can be more frustrating than deciphering a coach’s post-game “coachspeak,” but that’s part of the charm.
Unlike the NFL, where coaches are mandated to give injury reports, college coaches keep their cards closer to their chest than a poker player with a royal flush. Your chosen player might unexpectedly sit out, but don’t sweat over it too much – if they don’t see the field, your prop bet will be voided with your entry fee returned.
College Football Player Prop Tips
Here’s your playbook for betting on college football player props:
1. Injury Sleuthing: Channel your inner Sherlock Holmes. You might not get official injury reports, but you can piece together clues faster than a hurry-up offense.
2. Value Hunting: As NCAAF props markets grow like a lineman at an all-you-can-eat buffet, look beyond just the marquee matchups. Sometimes the best props are hiding in games with less media coverage than a Division III scrimmage.
3. Stay Informed: College football is more unpredictable than a trick play on 4th and long. Keep your ear to the ground (or your eyes on Twitter) for any whispers about player usage or game plans.
4. Patience Pays: If you can’t find a good prop bet, don’t force it like a QB trying to thread the needle into triple coverage. There’s always next week in the NCAAF props world.
Remember, betting on NCAA football props isn’t as easy, but it offers unique opportunities for those willing to do their homework (and yes, we mean more homework than your average student-athlete).
Stay sharp, be patient, and may your NCAAF prop picks be as successful as a walk-on earning a scholarship.
