Best Michigan vs. Oklahoma Player Prop Bets: College Football Week 2 Odds & Expert Picks
My college football picks get rolling this weekend with my best Michigan vs. Oklahoma player props, which anticipate a productive day for John Mateer and the Sooners' passing offense. Considering what we have seen in recent years from the Michigan defense, airing it out may be OU’s best chance.
As part of our college football predictions for Week 2, I’m also looking for Deion Burks to contribute to Mateer’s big day, while identifying a potential misprice on Michigan tight end Marlin Klein’s anytime touchdown odds at DraftKings.
Oklahoma is a 4.5-point betting favorite as the action kicks off from Gaylord Family Oklahoma Memorial Stadium (Norman, Okla.) at 7:30 p.m. ET (ESPN). Matt Jacob offers a full breakdown of this matchup, along with the latest live odds, in his Michigan vs. Oklahoma prediction.

💰 Best Michigan vs. Oklahoma player prop bets
Our college football player prop odds tool shows the best odds for every market across legal sportsbooks in your area.
⬆️ John Mateer Over 239.5 passing yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
After the Sooners failed to throw for 300 yards in a game last season, quarterback John Mateer threw for 392 passing yards against Illinois State in his Oklahoma debut. Now, he faces a Michigan defense that permitted 217 passing yards to New Mexico in its opener.
The Sooners' passing attack will need to stay firing in this matchup, as Michigan is much more difficult to penetrate on the ground. After boasting a top-five rush defense in the nation last year, the Wolverines allowed just 51 rushing yards in Week 1.
FanDuel offers the best odds for Over bettors on Mateer’s passing yardage prop, with -114 odds on Over 239.5 yards. The implied probability at those odds is 53.27%, with a potential winning $10 wager producing a profit of $8.77.
⬆️ Deion Burks Over 55.5 receiving yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Oklahoma wide receiver Deion Burks has more than a 'spurned local kid’ angle heading into this Week 2 matchup - but he has that, too, after the Michigan native went unnoticed by the Wolverines in his recruiting process.
What Burks also has is a blossoming rapport with Mateer after hauling in seven receptions for 88 yards last weekend against Illinois State. In a game script that should be pass-heavy for the hosts, considering Michigan’s strength on the ground, Burks has an attainable receiving line.
FanDuel has the best line on this prop, offering -114 odds on 55.5 yards, rather than the totals between 56.5 and 57.5 at other books. The implied probability is 53.27%, with a potential winning $10 wager producing a profit of $8.77.
🔥 Marlin Klein anytime touchdown scorer (+390) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
The extent to which senior Michigan tight end Marlin Klein becomes a season-long fixture as a pass-catcher remains to be seen. If he continues with the consistency that we saw in Week 1 (six receptions, 93 yards, and a touchdown), you can guarantee his anytime touchdown odds won’t stay this juicy for long.
But for this Week 2 matchup against Oklahoma, bettors can still score +390 anytime touchdown odds from DraftKings on Bryce Underwood’s big-bodied red zone target. The Sooners shut down the opposition through the air last week, but Illinois State didn’t have a player similar to Klein. The freshman quarterback should look his way again in the red zone in a hostile environment.
The odds at DraftKings beat the offerings at Caesars (+340) or FanDuel (+330). The implied probability at the +390 price is 20.41%, with a winning $10 bet profitting $39.

How do college football player props work?
Player props are wagers on individual performances rather than the outcome of the game. Common props include passing yards, rushing yards, receiving yards, and touchdown scorers. For example, if a QB’s passing yards line is set at 250.5, you can bet the Over (251-plus yards) or Under (250 or fewer yards). You can also bet on if a specific player will score a touchdown in the entire game, the first or last touchdown, and more college football odds markets.
