Each week I share my favorite college player props as part of our DFS College Football series.
We find our edge with RotoWire's Picks & Props tool. Multiple prediction factors help decide if we should lean "higher" or "lower" on all of the player props available across multiple DFS sites and sportsbooks. I use the tool as a starting point to highlight props that I might otherwise miss and to narrow down my options before doing a deeper dive into matchups and trends.
Below are some of the best picks you can make on Underdog this week.
QB Conner Weigman, Houston 
Weigman and the Cougars are still in the mix to win the Big 12 and based on the spread (Houston -1.5) and total (54.5), this should be a competitive, relatively high scoring game.
The best way for Houston to exploit TCU is through the air, where the Horned Frogs are allowing 247 passing yards per game (ranking them 110th against the pass). When Houston leans into the passing game, Weigman tops this line every time, exceeding 220 yards each game that he has attempted at least 25 passes this season.
CFB Underdog Pick: Conner Weigman, HIGHER than 201.5 pass yards
QB Luke Altmyer, Illinois 
It has been an up-and-down year for Altmyer, as the quarterback has exceeded 230 passing yards in half of his games, while also failing to reach even 200 yards in the other half. So which player will we get this weekend?
I'm playing the matchup here, as the Badgers have already allowed four quarterbacks to hit their season high passing totals, each tallying at least 265 yards. Opposing QBs are picking apart the Wisconsin secondary and making it look easy. In fact, Wisconsin is allowing opposing passers to complete 70.5% of their passes, which is third worst in the country. The Wisconsin run defense is actually pretty good, so look for the Illini to air it out on Saturday night at Camp Randall Stadium.
CFB Underdog Pick: Luke Altmyer, HIGHER than 227.5
RB Ahmad Hardy, Missouri 
Hardy just ran for 300 yards last week, moving into first in the country in season rushing yards, which is perfect for inflating lines like this. It's worth noting that before that huge game he was only averaging 79 yards per game in the previous four games.
Now he'll face a top 5 rush defense that has only allowed 82.2 rush yards per game. How did Mississippi's Kewan Lacy, who is third in the country in rushing yards, do against Oklahoma? He managed just 78 yards on 27 carries.
CFB Underdog Pick: Ahmad Hardy, LOWER than 114.5 rush yards
WR Parker Kingston, BYU 
After a slow start to his career (and this season), it has been a breakout year for Kingston. Over the past six games, the junior is averaging five catches and 89 receiving yards per game, exceeding this prop line in four of those games. During that stretch, only Texas Tech and Utah, which both rank among the top 35 in pass defense, were able to limit him to 43 and 50 yards.
This week he'll face off against a Cincinnati team that ranks 88th in passing yards allowed (232.5). Kingston should be a big factor in what is expected to be a close, high-scoring game.
CFB Underdog Pick: Parker Kingston HIGHER than 53.5 receiving yards
