This article is part of our DFS College Football series.
Each week throughout the college football season I share my favorite player props as part of our DFS College Football: PrizePicks Selections series. After a slow start to the season, we're on a roll:
- 3-0 on last week's picks
- 5-0 on the past five QB passing yards picks
- 6-0 on the past six RB rushing yards picks
Let's keep it going with my favorite passing, rushing and receiving props for Week 13, which I identified with some guidance from the Picks & Props app.
QB Dylan Raiola, Nebraska
After a strong start to the season, Raiola and the Cornhuskers have cooled off, losing four straight games while only averaging 177.6 passing yards per game. This week they'll face a Wisconsin defense that just held Oregon to 16 points and Heisman candidate QB Dillon Gabriel to 221 passing yards. Wisconsin has played great against the pass all season, allowing just 164.8 pass yards per game, 8th best in the country.
Sportsbooks give this game an implied score of 23-20, suggesting both teams could struggle to move the ball, which is no surprise, considering neither team has scored more than 20 points since mid-October.
CFB PrizePicks Selection: Dylan Raiola LESS than 211.5 passing yards
RB Delbert Mimms, Eastern Michigan
This is a great example of a top prop that I would've overlooked if not for the Picks & Props tool. Over the past six weeks Mimms has 20 or more rush attempts in four games. With an average of 4.1 yards per carry, he's not one of the most effective backs in the country, but that kind of volume is all we need in this situation. Tonight, Eastern Michigan faces a Buffalo defense that is ranked 84th in rush yards allowed per game.
If you like this pick, lock it in before the number moves. While other pick'em sites and sportsbooks have it as high as 71.5, we can get great value at 61.5 yards on PrizePicks.

WR Emeka Egbuka, Ohio State
Will the real Emeka Egbuka please stand up? Through the first six games of the season, Egbuka had 40 catches for 526 yards and six touchdowns. He was getting nearly nine targets per game and averaging over 13 yards per catch. In the past four games, he has seen just 3.5 targets per game and accumulated a total of 86 yards. Both Jeremiah Smith and Carnell Tate appear to have taken over as QB Will Howard's no. 1 and no. 2 options in the passing game.
Egbuka, who is projected to be a top 10 2025 NFL draft pick by many, certainly has the talent to easily top this number, but I'm not going to count on that happening against Indiana's top 25 passing defense in the game of the week.
