Week 1 was not kind to us as we went 1-1 in both Underdog Fantasy Slips for Thursday and Saturday. Graham Mertz easily threw for less than his passing prop while Cade Klubnik failed to throw for his passing prop. This week, we have some really fun matchups to choose from. Texas heads to Ann Arbor to take on Michigan and Arkansas heads to Stillwater to take on OK State. Below, we will take a look at the Week 2 College Football Underdog Fantasy board to cash a prop for the weekend.
College Football Week 2 – Underdog Fantasy Pick’em Plays
Donovan Edwards Less Than 53.5 Rushing Yards
Last week, Donovan Edwards rushed for just 27 yards on 11 carries against Fresno State. Truly, that was one of the most embarrassing stat lines of the week. For his entire career, I have been low on Edwards ability as a featured back. He came into the year as the number one running back but I believe that will change as the season goes on. Edwards will be a great fade all season long and is a great fade for your College Football Underdog Fantasy pick’ em slip.

Luke Altmyer Higher Than 219.5 Yards
Illinois is going to have a very competent offense this season and they will need to be firing on all cylinders if they want to keep up with Kansas’ offense. Altmyer has plenty of experience as a signal caller in his career at multiple schools and can truly be one of the better passers in the Big Ten. I believe the market is too short on him and Luke will go higher than his passing prop. The Illini will need to keep the pace at a high rate and air the ball out all game long.
