With No. 1 Georgia (14-0) and No. 3 TCU (13-1) set to meet in the National Championship Game on Monday night, there are plenty of Player Prop Bets to be had featuring top-performers such as TCU QB Max Duggan and Georgia TE Brock Bowers.
Here are 3 Player Prop Bets for all to consider before all the betting action takes over SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California:
TCU RB Kendre Miller To Score A Touchdown: Miller, listed as questionable with a knee injury, isn't a sure bet to play vs. Georgia. But Miller, who scored a touchdown in every game this season, expect in the CFP semifinal game vs. Michigan, was one of the nation's leading touchdown scorers with 17.
His ability to find the open field combined with poor tackling habits by the 'Dawgs D as of late, including plenty of missed tackles vs. Ohio State, definitely makes Miller a solid prop bet option (*if he plays.)
TCU QB Max Duggan Over 29.5 Rushing Yards: The Horned Frogs would not be in this position, if not for Duggan, the Heisman Trophy runner-up who quickly went to work on his made-for-Disney script after being inserted at quarterback in early September.
But for all the magic he created with his right arm (3,546 passing yards and 32 touchdown passes), Duggan also filled the unlikely script with his legs, rushing for 461 yards and eight touchdowns this season.
Much of Duggan's ground work came at critical points in games, especially when opposing teams forced him out of the pocket and provided him with room to run.
Georgia's speedy defense, meanwhile, has a tendency to over extend (pursuit) on plays, which could set up plenty of opportunities for Duggan to do just that.
Besides, it will take just one long run to get Duggan at or near over 29.5 rushing yards.
That's why .. I'm betting he goes over 29.5 rushing yards.
Georgia TE Brock Bowers Over 62.5 Receiving Yards: If the big fav 'Dawgs get into a blow-for-blow TD fest with the Horned Frogs, look for their explosive tight end to have a big game. Bowers, arguably Stetson Bennett's favorite target, led Georgia in receptions (56), receiving yards (790) and receiving yards (6) this season. Bowers has posted two receptions of 25+ yards in each of the last two games.

It would be great to hear from you on here.
