Florida vs. Oregon State College Football Bowl Game Prop Bets Picks & Predictions (Saturday)
Following a relatively quiet two-game slate on Friday, the college football action picks up Saturday with six games beginning at 11:00 AM EST. This year more than ever, the transfer portal and NIL have made many of these games too close to call.
While many will be chasing the sides, let’s take a closer look at a prop bet I’m on for Saturday’s action: Florida vs. Oregon State.

Florida vs. Oregon State College Football Bowl Game Prop Bets Picks & Predictions (Saturday)
This should be one of the more interesting matchups on Saturday, as Florida is going with sophomore Jack Miller III at QB in what will be his first college start. The decision was forced following the departure of Anthony Richardson to NFL draft prep and the dismissal of Jalen Kitna from the team.
The former Ohio State product will have his hands full against a Beavers defense ht ranks top 35 in the country in a hose of defensive categories. While the Beavers will also be playing with a backup QB, their running back, Damien Martinez, is this unit’s workhorse.
Having already secured the PAC-12 co-freshman of the year award, Martinez comes into this game with six straight 100+ yard running games. The #14 Beavers also have the edge in the coaching box, as head-man Jonathan Smith comes into this one as the PAC-12’s co-coach of the year and fresh off a brand new contract extension worth $30.6 million.
Look for a hot start from the Beavers and for them to relatively coast to a win in the second half.
Bet: Oregon State: Team Total Points – 2nd Half – OVER 15.5 (-120)
