Our college football player props based on the best NCAAF odds will be shooting for upside in Week 6.
I've said all season that we plan to learn from this weekly college football player props column, especially as props continue to become more popular across our best sports betting apps. Sportsbooks are still releasing new markets, and we are hoping to take advantage.
We certainly did that last week, when DraftKings started releasing some juicy prices on alternate markets. Texas running back Jonathan Brooks cashed two tickets – +140 for 100-plus rushing yards and +360 for 125-plus yards – for us in a big win over Kansas last weekend.
Thanks to those hefty payouts, we are still up on the season. This week, however, we plan to lean into this alternate market to take advantage of some nice plus-money prices in hopes of capitalizing in a big way when we are right.
To accompany all of our college football predictions for Week 6, here are our best college football player props for Week 6 (odds via our best college football betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

College football player props for Friday Week 6
Kansas State quarterback Will Howard has a rushing prop of 23.5 across our best sports betting sites, though the Over is juiced to -115. By adding an extra yard, we can bet on Howard's rushing abilit y at a standard -110 odds instead via the alternate rushing market at DraftKings.
Howard cleared this mark in two of his last three games, with the lone exception being a 21-yard performance against Missouri when he injured his leg during that game. Howard bounced back for 64 yards on seven rushing attempts against UCF and K-State had a bye last week, so we expect him to be healthy against Oklahoma State.
Barstool Sportsbook has set a rushing attempts prop of 9.5 for Howard, indicating he should be involved in the run game on Friday night.
Over the last three weeks, Howard is actually averaging 39 rushing yards per game on over eight attempts per contest. That's why we are willing to place another bet on him to record 40-plus rushing yards for a price of +290 at DraftKings, as a three-star pick, to shoot for more upside.
With a projection north of 30 rushing yards, take advantage of Howa rd's rushing discount against an OSU defense that has yet to face a dual-threat quarterback.
