Week 11 of the college football season has a great slate of Saturday games, headlined by an SEC matchup between No. 3 Texas A&M and No. 22 Missouri.
The Aggies enter as 6.5-point road favorites, with the total set at 48.5 points. These are the best college football player prop bets to consider on DraftKings Sportsbook for Texas A&M vs. Missouri, one of the biggest games of the day.
Texas A&M vs. Missouri Player Props
Ahmad Hardy 100+ Rushing Yards (+110)
Ahmad Hardy was one of the nation’s top running backs through the first few weeks of the season, but his production started to slow down as SEC play ramped up. Hardy was getting a lot of touches, and natural wear and tear likely played a huge factor in his numbers dwindling. However, he bounced back with a great 97-yard rushing performance against Vanderbilt on Oct. 25. Fresh off a bye week, Hardy should be recharged and ready to go. He rushed for at least 100 yards in each of the first five games of this season. Texas A&M ranks 26th in defensive EPA/pass and 90th in defensive EPA/rush. The way to beat the Aggies is on the ground, and with Missouri quarterback Beau Pribula sidelined, Hardy should get at least 20 carries in this game. If he can break a couple of big runs like he did earlier in the season, he should get at least 100 yards on the ground.
Marcel Reed 40+ Rushing Yards (+103)
Marcel Reed ranks fourth in the Heisman odds at DraftKings Sportsbook. If he closes the season strong and wins the SEC, he has a chance to win the award given to the best player in college football. The sophomore signal caller is mobile and can create big plays on the ground. Still, he’s looked to pass first for much of the season. The last two weeks, however, Reed has put in more work on the ground. Last time out against LSU, he had a season-high 13 carries for 108 yards. The Aggies are coming off a bye week after that win, so Reed should be feeling fresh heading into this matchup.
After this game, Texas A&M has an easier matchup against South Carolina and a cupcake game against Samford before its huge clash against Texas. Therefore, this should be a spot where Reed uses his legs again. Missouri has been elite against the pass, but ranks 53rd in defensive EPA/rush. This is a game where the field general needs to use his legs to create explosive plays for the Aggies. Reed has tallied 40+ rushing yards in back-to-back games and looks poised to surpass the threshold again against Missouri.
