Top 3 Player Props

Player Prop #1: Tez Johnson / Over 6.5 Receptions / -138 / 65% / Johnson’s high target share (averaging 7.2 receptions in recent games) exploits Iowa’s secondary vulnerabilities, with Oregon’s pass-heavy approach in key spots boosting the over based on current season usage rates.
Player Prop #2: Kaleb Johnson / Over 85.5 Rushing Yards / -110 / 58% / Iowa’s lead back has cleared this in 6 of 8 home games this season, facing Oregon’s run defense that allows 4.2 YPC; matchup favors ground control in a low-tempo battle.
Player Prop #3: Dante Moore / Under 225.5 Passing Yards / -115 / 60% / Moore’s return from injury limits deep shots against Iowa’s top-10 havoc rate, with recent Oregon games averaging 210 yards in conservative play-calling to protect leads.

⚖️ Analysis Summary
Public betting splits on the spread while money heavily favors Oregon, creating divergence that supports fading the favorite’s juice amid Iowa’s home resilience. Sharp action appears aligned with the under given both defenses’ rankings in points allowed and the simulated average total below the line. Overall, expect a gritty, low-scoring contest under 42.5 points due to Iowa’s shutdown secondary and Oregon’s road caution.
