Only four weeks are left in the college football season before the bowl games begin.
As the best teams jockey to earn a bid in the College Football Playoff, five remain undefeated.
With the season nearing a close, we’ll be looking to stay in the black on our bets down the stretch.
Here are our best game props and player props in CFB Week 12 Best Bets.

CFB Week 12 Best Props
Maryland: Under 15.5 (-125)
DraftKings Sportsbook • WAGER: 1 Unit
Betting that the team facing Michigan will stay Under its point total has been a profitable endeavor all season. So why would we stop now?
The Wolverines travel to face Maryland on Saturday after defeating Penn State 24-15 on the road in Week 11.
The 15 points that the Nittany Lions scored last week are the most a team has put up on Michigan this season.
There isn’t a school in the nation allowing fewer points per game (7.5) than the Wolverines, who are playing inspired with coach John Harbaugh suspended for the rest of the season.
Maryland has posted 15 or fewer points in back-to-back games against Nebraska and Penn State, making this one of our best CFB prop bets in Week 12.
Missouri: Over 34.5 Points (-115)
DraftKings Sportsbook • WAGER: 1 Unit
This Florida team is far from the one that dominated the SEC in the mid-to-late 2000s.
Sitting at 5-5 on the season, the Gators are giving up 27.4 points per game. But in each of their last four contests (all against SEC opponents), they’ve surrendered at least 39 points.
Missouri impressed in Week 11 by beating Tennessee 36-7 to improve to 8-2.
In recent weeks, the Tigers have leaned on running back Cody Schrader, who has at least 112 rushing yards in four of his last five games.
Entering Saturday’s SEC matchup, Florida is allowing 160 rushing yards per game.
With Missouri averaging 32.8 points per game this season (30th in the nation), I’ll take the Tigers to score slightly more than that at home against the Gators.

CFB Week 12 Player Props
Marvin Harrison Jr.: Over 103.5 Receiving Yards (-115)
DraftKings Sportsbook • WAGER: 1 Unit
The best wide receiver in college football resides at Ohio State, with Marvin Harrison Jr. putting up video-game numbers in recent weeks.
The Buckeyes will host a Minnesota team that’s limiting opponents to 226.6 passing yards per game.
That said, Harrison has dominated in tough matchups this season, as evidenced by the 149 yards he posted against a Michigan State squad that’s giving up 235.4 passing yards per game.
After registering only 18 receiving yards in Week 1, Harrison has recorded at least 105 in seven of his last nine games – and he has reached that mark every time the Buckeyes have gotten him five receptions.
Ladd McConkey: Over 66.5 Receiving Yards (-115)
DraftKings Sportsbook • WAGER: 1 Unit
Rolling with Ladd McConkey to hit the Over on his receiving yards has brought us plenty of success in recent weeks.
Even with Brock Bowers making his return in the last game, McConkey still managed to turn four receptions into 81 yards and a touchdown.
Georgia’s aerial attack has looked better and better each week, with Carson Beck growing more comfortable as the starting quarterback.
McConkey dealt with an injury early in the season, but he has now totaled more than 80 receiving yards in three consecutive games for the Bulldogs.
While Tennessee’s pass defense is surrendering only 227.5 yards per game, the Volunteers allowed Missouri to air it out for 275 yards last week.
