College Football Week 6 Player Prop Picks: Count on Tar Heels Tight End
My college football Week 6 player prop picks will look to build on another winning week.
In Week 5, we cashed a +100 ticket on Illinois receiver Zakhari Franklin to record four-plus receptions, and Alabama’s Kobe Prentice finished below his low receiving prop of 24.5 against Georgia.
We aim to keep stacking profitable weeks together with our college football expert picks as we approach the halfway point of the regular season.
Read on for my favorite player props this weekend as part of our college football Week 6 predictions.

The Louisville passing attack welcomed back receiver Caullin Lacy in last week’s 31-24 loss to Notre Dame. Lacy’s return and the game script had a significant impact on the target share for the top receivers.
Lacy and Ja’Corey Brooks paced the team with nine targets. They both finished with five catches and 71 yards, establishing themselves as the top options. Bell has settled into a tertiary role and has yet to record more than three catches in a game this season.
Bell is a big-play threat, recording a 45-yard reception against Georgia Tech and a 48-yard catch against Jacksonville State. But those two plays account for more than half of his yardage production this season.
I’ll fade this line for Bell with Lacy back in the fold. I project him to finish with 30 yards on Saturday.
Rob Paul is also targeting this game as one of his best college football Week 6 picks against the spread.
Bryson Nesbit anytime touchdown (+210) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: +210 via bet365 | Implied probability: 32.26%
I don’t usually recommend a touchdown prop in this column, but a +210 price on North Carolina tight end Bryson Nesbit to score is too good to pass up.
Nesbit is second on the team in targets with 30, trailing J.J. Jones by one target. He saw 11 targets in last week’s loss to Duke, suggesting his importance to the offense. Nesbit has 17 receptions for 208 yards and three scores on the year.
He's been a favored target of new Tar Heels quarterback Jacolby Criswell, whom Mike Spector wrote more about in his college football Week 6 predictions & best bets.
Saturday’s matchup with Pittsburgh should be uptempo, which is why the total is trading as high as 64.5 across our best college football betting sites. I’ll take this price on the 6-foot-5 senior to score, especially when his line as short as +160 at DraftKings.
Jalon Daniels long completion Under 37.5 (-115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -115 via bet365 | Implied probability: 53.49%
As mentioned in my Big 12 predictions for Week 6, I’m jumping at the opportunity to fade Kansas quarterback Jalon Daniels. He has thrown for 805 yards, five touchdowns, and eight interceptions.
However, the primary issue has been the lack of vertical threat in KU’s offense.
Daniels, who graded as a solid deep passer two years ago, hasn’t completed a pass longer than 36 yards against an FBS opponent. According to PFF, Daniels is 4-for-23 on pass attempts of 20-plus yards.
Simply put, this is the best way to fade a struggling player. Our best sportsbooks are giving us a gift (36.5 or better) for Daniels’ longest completion.
Even with Daniels' struggles, Mike Spector likes the Jayhawks (+130) as road underdogs in his college football Week 6 upset picks.
