Week 9 of the college football season continues with a great Saturday slate. These are the best player prop bets to consider on DraftKings Sportsbook for Saturday of Week 9.
Week 9 Prop Bets
Alabama vs. South Carolina: Germie Bernard Anytime TD (-105)
Alabama has looked incredible since its opening week loss to Florida State. The Crimson Tide have arguably the best quarterback in the country, Ty Simpson, and rank seventh in the nation in offensive EPA/pass. This South Carolina defense ranks 101st in the nation in defensive passing success rate, so this should be a big game for Simpson.
Alabama has one of the best wide receiver duos in the country between Ryan Williams and Germie Bernard. However, Bernard has been the touchdown machine for the Tide because of all the ways he can be used. He is often used in the screen game and even the run game on trick plays but can also run great routes and break defenses down. Bernard has six touchdowns in seven games this season and should find the end zone against the Gamecocks on Saturday.
Cincinnati vs. Baylor: Brendan Sorsby 34+ Rushing Yards (-120)
Brendan Sorsby has been one of the most underrated quarterbacks in the country this season. Sorsby has been an unstoppable dual-threat, playing nearly flawless football. In Cincinnati’s season opener against Nebraska, Sorsby relied heavily on his legs, rushing for 96 yards and two touchdowns. Since that game, he has an incredible 18-0 TD-INT ratio with four more rushing touchdowns moreover. In this big game against Baylor, Sorsby should rely on his legs again.
Baylor has been solid defending the pass, ranking 53rd nationally in defensive EPA/pass. However, they rank 100th in defensive EPA/rush. They have struggled against other mobile quarterbacks this season, allowing Jackson Arnold to rush for 137 yards, Avery Johnson to run for 72 yards and Sam Leavitt to rush for 62 yards. Sorsby has gone over this rushing number in six out of seven games this season. He should clear it again in this matchup against Baylor.
Texas A&M vs. LSU: KC Concepcion Anytime TD (+140)
Texas A&M is still undefeated and is now ranked No. 3 in the country. The Aggies are playing at a high level on both sides of the ball. Quarterback Marcel Reed has taken a big leap forward this season, partially due to the great skill position players around him. The duo of Mario Craver and KC Concepcion has been unstoppable for opposing defenses. Craver has next-level speed and can turn a simple slant into a huge play. However, Concepcion has been the top red zone target for Marcel Reed. Concepcion is great at creating just enough space in tight areas for his quarterback to zip it in for a score. KC Concepcion leads the team with six receiving touchdowns on the season and has a great chance to score another one on Saturday against LSU.
