We've analyzed the college football odds from our best sports betting apps to identify the most favorable Shedeur Sanders player props, while the Colorado Buffaloes aim to end their two-game losing streak with a victory over the Arizona State Sun Devils on the road this Saturday.
Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Shedeur Sanders and freshman wide receiver Omarion Miller connected on seven passes for 196 yards and a touchdown, helping the Buffaloes explode for 27 second-half points against the USC Trojans.
Has Sanders found a new No. 1 receiver, or did Miller have success because USC didn't game plan for him? The answer to that question will largely determine how Sanders performs this week.
Here are our best Shedeur Sanders college football player props and predictions for the Colorado vs. Arizona State Week 6 matchup (odds via our best college footbal l betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

Sanders was unable to get anything going in the first half last week, then he erupted in the second. However, there are two main reasons we're not confident in him replicating last week's success.
For one, the Sun Devils have a solid pass defense. They're allowing 212.6 yards per game through the air, and even though they weren't able to comp letely keep Caleb Williams in check, they did hold him to 322 yards. The only good pass defense Sanders has faced this season held him to 159 yards.
Lastly, Miller is no longer a surprise. Miller's insertion into Saturday's game was perfectly timed. The freshman looked impressive, as he turned short gains into huge ones. Now, the Sun Devils have a week to plan for his explosiveness. It's not an understatement to say he was the reason for Sanders' success this past weekend. Without his same output, and with the continued absence of Travis Hunter, Sanders will fall back to earth this week.

Sanders' passing touchdown lines are tough this week. Four of the five best sports betting apps are offering his total at 3.5, with the price very steep to take the Under. Meanwhile, FanDuel is off ering the line at 2.5, but taking his Over is -200.
The odds say Sanders will throw for three touchdowns, but to take him to throw that exact number isn't worth the cost. Therefore, we're going to play him to throw two or fewer touchdowns at a decent price at FanDuel.
Sanders has thrown four touchdowns in three of his five games. However, other than his game against the TCU Horned Frogs, those numbers are inflated. Against Colorado State, two of his four came in overtime. Last week, three of his four came after his team trailed by 27.
We don't expect either of those scenarios on Saturday, so this really is the best play for his passing touchdowns prop.
Only two sportsbooks are currently offering this prop, but if you're going to bet on it, you better do so at FanDuel. The price at DraftKings is just +105, which is incredibly low and not worth a play at all. Even FanDuel's line of +240 is a bit low, but it's significantly better than what DraftKings is offering.
Sanders has only rushed for a touchdown in two of his five games this season. The total for this game is set at 59.5, and the Buffaloes are favored, so clearly oddsmakers are expecting a lot of scoring opportunities for Sanders and the offense. But still, we wouldn't play this any lower than FanDuel's +240.
If this drops below +240, then it may be worth looking for other props. Though there is nothing available for passing completions or passing attempts at the moment, we'd consider the Overs on both at the right number – 30.5 would be the highest we'd go for completions, and 42.5 is the highest we'd go for attempts.
