Tuesday MACtion is back for Week 11 with three games. Kent State visits Bowling Green at 7 p.m. ET on ESPNU, Western Michigan visits Akron at 7 p.m. ET on CBSSN, and Ohio visits Miami (OH) at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN2.
My college football player props for Tuesday night lean on individual game logs, with team splits as supporting context. Keep reading for my Tuesday MACtion player props, including the best bets for Ohio vs Miami and more.
Tuesday MACtion Player Props and Best Bets
Rodney Nelson and Wayne Harris are plus-money touchdown plays, while Duncan Brune’s 60+ rushing yards line sits at Even as a small-stakes play. All three prices are from theScore Bet, one of the top college football betting apps.
Tuesday MACtion Player Props Pick #1: Rodney Nelson 1+ Touchdown vs. Ohio
- Pick: Rodney Nelson 1+ Touchdown (+130 at theScore Bet)
Nelson has already delivered a multi-score game this season, rushing for 142 rushing yards and two touchdowns against Akron on Oct. 17.
Nelson took 13 carries in that game, including a 58-yard run. He can score from outside the red zone, which matters in a backfield he shares with D’Shawntae Jones. Miami (OH) averages 27.2 points per game and has converted 93.1% of its red-zone opportunities. At +130, Nelson needs to score 43.5% of the time to break even.
Tuesday MACtion Player Props Pick #2: Wayne Harris 1+ Touchdown at Bowling Green
- Pick: Wayne Harris 1+ Touchdown (+150 at theScore Bet)
Harris enters tonight with 43 catches, 674 receiving yards and five receiving touchdowns through nine games.
Harris leads Kent State in receptions, yards and receiving touchdowns. Teammates Da’Realyst Clark and Ardell Banks had one receiving touchdown apiece entering Tuesday. If Dru DeShields throws a touchdown, Harris is my first choice to catch it.
At +150 I need him to score four times in ten comparable games to break even. Five touchdowns through nine games tell me where DeShields looks, but they don’t tell me in how many games Harris scored.
Tuesday MACtion Player Props Pick #3: Duncan Brune 60+ Rushing Yards at Miami (OH)
- Pick: Duncan Brune 60+ Rushing Yards (+100 at theScore Bet)
Brune has logged 91 carries for 463 yards and four touchdowns across seven appearances this season. His game-by-game rushing totals are 32, 66, 86, 91, 55, 22 and 111 yards.
He reached 60 yards in four of those seven games, a 57.1% hit rate against the 50% break-even rate at Even. Exactly 60 yards cashes this prop.
Brune ran for 111 yards on 10 carries recently against Akron, with 91 coming on a single run. He has also cleared 60 without that kind of breakaway run: he scampered for 86 on 18 attempts at Kent State and 91 on 16 against Central Michigan. I’d keep the stake small because his workload has ranged from eight to 18 carries. New users can sign up with theScore Bet promo code and get a bonus to use on tonight’s games.
Western Michigan at Akron: Jalen Buckley Watch
Western Michigan visits Akron at 7 p.m. ET on CBSSN. The rushing line I’m watching is Jalen Buckley over 97.5 yards. Western Michigan has the game script a lead back wants as a road favorite, but quarterback Broc Lowry takes some of those carries. I’m leaving Buckley off the betting card until that line shrinks to a playable price.
