We have put together a list of all of the day’s best odds boosts, which today are from DraftKings Sportsbook and FanDuel Sportsbook. We’ll discuss whether or not they are worth playing.
Jonathan Taylor to score 2+ touchdowns – Boosted from +260 to +290 with DraftKings Sportsbook
For this prop, we will need Jonathan Taylor to continue having a fantastic season by scoring 2 touchdowns. He not only has the most rushing yards of any running back this season, but also has 16 touchdowns. He also has 2 receiving touchdowns, which could be important because the Patriots’ defense does not allow many guys to score on the ground. Despite the solid defense from new England, Taylor has been far too good to believe he will get shut down completely. For that reason, this prop looks to be worth a play.

BYU to win by 10+ points – Boosted from +120 to +135 with DraftKings Sportsbook
The BYU Cougars will be looking to cap off a nice season with a win over UAB in the Independence Bowl. They are already favored by about a touchdown, a line our experts love. The Blazers have not been a bad team this year, but the quarterback/running back combo for BYU looks to be too much for the Blazers to handle. For that reason, backing the Cougars to win by double digits looks to be worth a play.

Louisiana Lafayette to lead by 10+ points at halftime – Boosted from +190 to +220 with DraftKings Sportsbook
The Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns will look to win their 13th game this season when they play the Marshall Thundering Herd in the New Orleans Bowl tonight. The Ragin’ Cajuns’ offense was solid all year and they capped off their season with a win in the Sun Belt Championship game. Marshall has been very inconsistent, so a fast start from the Louisiana offense can be expected. Our experts like the Ragin’ Cajuns to win and cover, but a dominant first half is also likely given how they can move the football. For that reason, this prop looks to be worth a play.

Utah State & Oregon State to combine for 75+ points – Boosted from +170 to +205 with DraftKings Sportsbook
The Jimmy Kimmel LA Bowl will feature the Utah State Aggies and the Oregon State Beavers and for this prop, we need there to be at least 75+ points scored in the game. That is a ton of points and even though a few mistakes could put this number in jeopardy, our experts would still lean to the under for the original line (67.5), so with this line being even higher, this prop is likely best avoided.

UNC and Kentucky to combine for 155+ points – Boosted from +190 to +230 with DraftKings Sportsbook
After a ton of cancellations, Kentucky will now face North Carolina this evening. This prop needs there to be at least 155+ points combined, which likely means we cannot have many droughts. Our experts would lean to the under regardless, so adding more points to this total makes this prop worth staying away from.

Jake Paul to win by KO/TKO vs Tyron Woodley – Boosted from +230 to +300 with FanDuel Sportsbook
This will be a rematch of the fight in August, when Jake Paul won by split decision. Both fighters are likely to be more aggressive this time, and our experts like this fight to end inside the distance. Paul controlled the majority of the first fight, but with Woodley likely pushing for a finish, it may leave an opening for Paul to score the TKO/KO. This is not a prop I would be running to play, but it may be worth a small play to back Paul to win this fight without needing the judges.
