It’s late November. It’s cold and it’s wet. Sure sounds like perfect MACtion conditions to us! The Wednesday night forecast contains a smattering of the Buffalo Bulls on the road at the Eastern Michigan Eagles with a strong chance of the Ohio Bobcats and Toledo Rockets providing thunder and lightening on the field.
Looking to make a little money on the MAC this week, but unsure of where to direct your hard-earned dollars? Step this way for the best college football player props on Wednesday.
Wednesday College Football Player Props
Chase Hendrix Under 34.5 Receiving Yards
This game is supposed to take place in awful weather, which could emphasize the running game and significantly impact some of the college football player props available.
While we can look for advantages in unders for most of the receiving, my best bet is the Ohio pass catcher who has the highest average depth of target and lowest yards after catch number on the team.

The teams might try a deep ball or two, but with wind gusts touching 40 miles per hour, I just don’t see Chase Hendrix getting many touches. It’ll simply be too hard to push the ball vertically.
C.J. Ogbonna 50+ Rushing Yards (+110)
Given the weather conditions in this game and the success mobile quarterbacks have had against Eastern Michigan, I like Buffalo quarterback C.J. Ogbonna to go over his rushing total.
It’s easiest to find a round number and DraftKings has it listed at plus money, despite the fact that Ogbonna has gone over this in back-to-back weeks.
I don’t expect the Bulls to throw as often, limiting the risk of sack yardage negatively impacting his rushing total. The Bulls are also likely to incorporate more called quarterback runs to mix things up, as the Eastern Michigan front will sell out to stop the run.
