Saturday’s college football slate gives us a massive Big Ten showdown between No. 3 Ohio State and No. 7 Penn State. The sportsbooks have rolled out plenty of player props for this marquee matchup.

We’ve found some compelling plays in the Ohio State vs Penn State player props market. Our analysis keys in on Nittany Lions running back Nicholas Singleton, while we’re also eyeing Buckeyes quarterback Will Howard and Penn State tight end Tyler Warren in the scoring markets.

Let’s break down the top Ohio State vs Penn State player props and our best bets for each market.

Ohio State vs Penn State Player Props

Will Howard tops the QB passing totals at 230.5 yards, while OSU’s Jeremiah Smith leads all receivers with 70.5 yards. Look for Nicholas Singleton’s combined rushing and receiving prop at 83.5 yards for this crucial matchup.

Odds as of November 2 at DraftKings Sportsbook and FanDuel Sportsbook. Check out our recommended college football betting sites for props.

Prop Pick #1: Nicholas Singleton Over 83.5 Rushing + Receiving Yards

Our first play focuses on Nicholas Singleton’s combined rushing and receiving yards. The dynamic junior looks primed to exploit an Ohio State defense that’s had trouble containing dual-threat backs.

Singleton has been incredibly efficient this season, churning out 6.4 yards per carry while becoming a real weapon in the passing game. He’s cleared 80 combined yards in five of seven games this season, and that’s while sharing the backfield with Kaytron Allen.

The Buckeyes have had real trouble with backs catching passes out of the backfield, ranking just 7th in Big Ten pass defense. Singleton’s receiving numbers tell the story – 13 catches for 150 yards and four TDs – suggesting he’ll be a major factor in both phases of the offense.

Penn State’s recent game plans show they want to get Singleton involved early and often. His last outing against Wisconsin (12 rushes, 49 yards; 3 receptions, 37 yards) highlights his dual-threat ability. As slight home underdogs, look for the Nittany Lions to feed their explosive back.

• Pick: Nicholas Singleton Over 83.5 Rushing + Receiving Yards (-114 at FanDuel)

Prop Pick #2: Will Howard to Throw an Interception

Our next pick targets Will Howard to throw a pick against Penn State’s stout defense. The numbers aren’t pretty when Howard faces pressure – just 10-of-25 passing with a worrying 7.7% turnover-worthy play rate.

Penn State’s defense has been shutting down passing games all year, allowing just a 31.2% success rate through the air. Their aggressive front seven, led by Abdul Carter and his 9.5 tackles for loss, should be in Howard’s face all afternoon, especially with Ohio State’s offensive line issues.

The Buckeyes’ protection took a big hit when left tackle Josh Simmons went down, and his backup might not even suit up for this one. This weakness up front, paired with Penn State’s relentless pass rush, spells trouble for Howard.

• Pick: Will Howard to Throw an Interception (-125 at DraftKings)

Ohio State vs PSU Touchdown Props

Jeremiah Smith sits as the favorite to find the end zone at -110. But we see better value elsewhere – specifically with Tyler Warren at +110, given how much Penn State loves using him near the goal line.

Anytime TD Pick: Tyler Warren

Our touchdown prop focuses on Penn State tight end Tyler Warren at plus-money odds. Warren has become Drew Allar’s go-to target in the red zone, already hauling in four scores this season.

The 6’6″, 257-pound senior has turned into a centerpiece of Penn State’s passing game. His numbers jump off the page – 47 catches for 559 yards through seven games. Just look at his monster 17-catch performance against USC to see how much they trust him.

Ohio State’s 4-2-5 defense should give Warren some tasty matchups, especially near the goal line, where his size creates real problems for defenders. Getting +110 odds on Warren to score is excellent value, especially with Penn State likely needing to stay aggressive to keep pace.

• Pick: Tyler Warren Anytime TD (+110 at DraftKings)
