Thursday’s college football slate offers two prime spots for prop bettors. Memphis visits South Florida at 8 p.m. ET, and Louisiana travels to Louisiana-Monroe at 9 p.m. ET.
Not every market we targeted has been posted yet. The table below separates playable props with posted prices and watchlist targets that still need a line before they become bets. Keep reading for my Thursday CFB player props and best college football prop picks for Nov. 12.
Thursday CFB Player Props
Playable prices from theScore Bet as of 2:46 am ET on Nov. 12. The two passing-yard targets had no verified quote at the books checked.
Both Memphis vs. South Florida props are live at theScore Bet, and Marcus Stokes at -105 is the slightly better price. The Louisiana-ULM targets are conditional, so we would play them only if lines post at or better than those thresholds. Track every market on our college football player props page.
Best College Football Prop Picks
Pick 1: Marcus Stokes 250+ Passing Yards
- Marcus Stokes 250+ passing yards (-105 at theScore Bet)
Stokes has thrown for 2,532 yards and 25 touchdowns through nine games, running a Memphis offense that averages 37.6 points and 513.3 yards per game. The Tigers also convert 46.4% of their third downs, which keeps Stokes on the field and adds passing volume.
Our original target sat in the mid-240s, so the posted 250+ market asks for a few more yards. At -105, the price is fair enough to absorb that higher bar, and Stokes’ production this season gives him room to clear it. Claim theScore bet promo code now to lock in this line.
Pick 2: D.J. Crowther 90+ Rushing Yards
- D.J. Crowther 90+ rushing yards (-110 at theScore Bet)
D.J. Crowther leads South Florida with 689 rushing yards and seven touchdowns on 138 carries. The QB situation is murky, which makes Crowther the most dependable piece of the Bulls’ offense.
The 90+ market sits a few yards above our original mid-80s target, and -110 is a standard price for that extra ask. If South Florida wants to shorten the game and keep Memphis on the sideline, Crowther’s workload gives him a real path to 90.

Neither of these markets had a posted price at time of writing. Treat both as conditional targets that we would bet only at or better than the thresholds below.
Watchlist: Lunch Winfield Over 191.5 Passing Yards
- Lunch Winfield over 191.5 passing yards (watchlist, no posted price)
Lunch Winfield has thrown for 1,599 yards and run for 567 more, giving Louisiana a true dual threat at quarterback. His legs keep defenses honest, which should open passing windows against ULM.
We would play the over only at 191.5 or lower. If the posted line lands well above that, pass.
Watchlist: Aidan Armenta Under 142.5 Passing Yards
- Aidan Armenta under 142.5 passing yards (watchlist, no posted price)
Aidan Armenta has 1,413 passing yards and 10 touchdowns, but he shares snaps with Austin Carlisle, who has 363 rushing yards. The two combined for 144 rushing yards in the win at Arkansas State, a sign ULM is comfortable leaning on the ground.
That split workload caps Armenta’s passing volume. We would target the under only at 142.5 or higher. For more ways to play the slate, see our guide to the best college football betting apps.
