Here are our top Shedeur Sanders college football player props, along with predictions based on the best college football odds, as the Colorado Buffaloes aim to upset the USC Trojans at Folsom Field.

Shedeur Sanders and the Colorado offense faced a tough challenge last week, managing only 159 yards and one touchdown, resulting in just six points, all while Sanders endured constant pressure and was sacked seven times.

This week, they're facing a Trojans' defense that typically allows 228 passing yards per game. With Caleb Williams leading the opposing team, experts anticipate a high-scoring matchup. The lingering question is: can Sanders rise to the occasion in this anticipated shootout?

Here are our best Shedeur Sanders college football player props and predictions for the USC vs. Colorado Week 5 matchup (odds via our best college football betting sites; pick confidence based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

The Trojans’ defense is not as good as the Ducks’ unit. Additionally, the Trojans score so quickly, and will continue to do so in this game, that the Buffaloes are going to have more offensive opportunities. However, we cannot recommend the Over after what we’ve seen the last two weeks.

Don’t just look at the numbers from the last two weeks, look at when the yardage and scoring came. Remember, with just seconds remaining against the Colorado State Rams, Sanders had well below 300 passing yards. Overtime helped him pad his stats.

Shedeur Sanders Under 2.5 passing touchdowns (-165 via bet365) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

This would be a five-star play if the Trojans didn’t score so quickly on offense. Sanders is going to have so many opportunities to put drives together in this game, that there is always the chance he throws for three touchdowns with his team down by a significant amount.

In the first three weeks, Sanders threw for 10 touchdowns. Three of those scores against the Rams came in the final seconds of the game or overtime. Last week, Sanders had no business throwing even a single touchdown, but with his team down big he was able to put a drive together and get in for the score.

The price for this is steep, but it’s the best play of the day. Much has been made of the difficulties surrounding the Trojans’ defense, but they’ve only allowed five passing touchdowns this season.

Right now, we’re not seeing any sportsbooks offering it, but if you can get Sanders to throw exactly one touchdown pass, we highly recommend playing it.

He is always looking for value, especially on lines that just seem too good to be true. His belief is that if a line doesn't make sense just assume oddsmakers know something you don't. He also loves in-season futures. There is so much value to be had as the public overreacts weekly. Bettors tend to forget just how long NFL and college football seasons are. After all, the Green Bay Packers were 2-5 in 2023 and they made it to the Divisional Round. When deciding where to bet, it comes down to value over everything. +100 is always better than -110. An alumnus of The U, Phil always holds out hope that the next head coach will be the one who turns the football program around. He is also a diehard Detroit Lions fan and is willing to forgive Dan Campbell for forgetting that a kicker can be useful.
