Minnesota vs. Oregon Player Props: Best Bets & TD Picks for Week 12

No. 8 Oregon is expected to make easy work of Minnesota in this Friday night clash, and my Minnesota vs. Oregon player props reflect that. The Ducks are a 25.5-point betting favorite in this Big Ten tilt, which kicks off from Autzen Stadium in Eugene, Ore., at 9 p.m. ET (FOX).

My college football predictions for Week 12 involve plays on an Oregon running back and Minnesota's quarterback, while taking a flier on an anytime touchdown scorer at +135 odds.

💰 Best Minnesota vs. Oregon player props

⬆️ Jordon Davison player prop: Over 51.5 rushing yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Oregon running back Jordon Davison had a maximum of just six carries and 34 rushing yards through his first five games. But over the last four, he has averaged 8.5 carries for 78.3 yards while going Over this projected total in all four and eclipsing the 100-yard mark twice.

Davison has still only seen more than eight carries in one game, but he has flashed big-play ability with a 6.8 yards-per-carry average. He is a big reason why the Ducks rank first nationally in yards per rush, third in rushing success rate, and first in percentage of plays gaining 20-plus yards (11.3%). 

The best number and price are through FanDuel’s -114 odds at a 53.27% implied probability, which would return $8.77 in profits on a $10 wager if the Over cashes.

⬇️ Drake Lindsey player prop: Longest pass completion Under 31.5 yards (-115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Minnesota has fought its way to a 6-3 record despite an offense that ranks 132nd in adjusted tempo and 108th in yards per play. That methodical brand of offense won't get it done against an Oregon team that can not only score in bunches but also force three-and-outs on 47% of opposing drives, a top-20 mark.

This is a four-star best Minnesota vs. Oregon player prop, as the Golden Gophers rank dead-last among all FBS teams in explosive play rate, with just 4.3% of their plays gaining 20 or more yards. In addition, Minnesota ranks outside the top 20 in completions of 20-plus yards, and one-fourth of its completions go to running backs (third-most).

One of our best sports betting sites, bet365, has -115 odds that carry a 53.49% implied probability. If Lindsey’s longest completion goes for 31 or fewer yards, my $10 winning wager would net $8.70 in profits.

6️⃣ Best Minnesota vs. Oregon touchdown scorer bet

🔥 Gary Bryant Jr. TD pick: Anytime touchdown scorer (+135) ⭐⭐⭐

Gary Bryant Jr. ranks second among all Ducks pass-catchers in receptions and fourth in receiving yards. But interestingly, his anytime touchdown odds are on par with fellow wide receiver Dakorien Moore, who leads the team in yards per catch (min. four receptions) and has 132 yards more than the next-closest teammate.

Oregon ranks in the top 20 nationally in offensive success rate (49.9%) and converts third downs at a 47.7% clip. 

Bryant is one of two Oregon players with four or more receiving touchdowns, and I am banking on him to snap a four-game touchdown drought after recording at least one touchdown in each of the first four games of the season.

The +135 odds at DraftKings are a steal compared to Bryant’s +105 odds at the low end of the market. If Bryant finds the end zone, my $10 winning wager would net $13.50 in profits.
