- Jordan Faison has a receiving yard total of 42.5 yards.
- Odds for Tyler Warren’s reception total are set at 5.5.
MIAMI – The Notre Dame Fighting Irish and Penn State Nittany Lions are headed for a defensive clash in the Orange Bowl and several player prop odds are going to be impacted by this.
Specifically looking at receivers on both sides, Notre Dame’s Jordan Faison and Penn State tight end, Tyler Warren are seeing different value in their odds on college football prop betting sites.
Too High Of A Total For Jordan Faison
Jordan Faison Total Receiving Yards
- Over 42.5 -114
- Under 42.5 -114
Yes, Faison has been a bright spot for the Notre Dame receiving core, but that stops here against Penn State as bettors should take the under for his yard total on college football sportsbooks.
Notre Dame has gotten most of their offensive work through the playoffs on the ground. In both games in the postseason, the Irish have logged more rushing attempts than passing attempts and have found success with it.
It also hurts Faison’s case that Riley Leonard has a high rushing yard total of 44.5 and also that he’s carried the ball 25 times through both games as well.
Also, from the odds perspective, Notre Dame is a slight 2.5-point favorite in this one. That said, if they do get out to a lead, they’ll ultimately try to run the clock out on the ground taking away even more opportunities from Faison to hit his yard total.
Tyler Warren To Stay Busy
Tyler Warren Reception Total
- Over 5.5 -170
- Under 5.5 +129
This is just too low of a number for a player that gets this much volume and college football sportsbooks see that with where they’ve set his odds to go over.
Warren has gone over 5.5 receptions in 9 of 15 games this season including a 17 reception game against USC in Week 7. Following that outbreak performance, he’s gone over 5.5 receptions in seven of his last nine games.
He’s a true security blanket for Drew Allar in the pass game as his team-leading 98 receptions are 52 more receptions than the next receiver on the team.
