Quinn Ewers touchdown pick vs. Georgia

Quinn Ewers Over 1.5 passing touchdowns (-156) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Ewers’ QBR has gone down for three consecutive weeks, and he isn't posting the gaudy yardage totals that he had become accustomed to.

But he is still leading plenty of touchdown drives, as Texas’ +36.8 point differential is its best through the first six games of a season since 1915.

Ewers had two or more passing touchdowns in every game except last week, when he threw one passing touchdown against Oklahoma. 

If the Longhorns offensive line can protect Ewers, he figures to carve up a Bulldogs secondary that ranks just inside the top 60 in EPA/pass allowed.

When he was not pressured last week (which was on 20 of 32 dropbacks), Ewers threw his only touchdown and completed 17 of 20 passes for 191 yards. When he was pressured, he completed just 33% of his passes and threw his only interception.

With Texas’ running game being a viable threat in the red zone - Quintrevion Wisner has averaged 7.9 yards per carry and over 100 rushing yards the last two weeks -  that should open more things up in the passing game.

I might opt for better value if I was forced to wager on this Over at anywhere from the -165 to -174 odds that are offered at the rest of our best sports betting sites, but these -156 odds are reasonable.

A $10 winning wager at Caesars would pay out $6.41 in profit.

Quinn Ewers Over 255.5 passing yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐

Ewers threw for fewer than 200 yards against Oklahoma in his first return to action after a two-game absence with an abdominal strain.

Now bettors need to ask themselves if that poor performance was caused by lingering effects from the injury, a solid Oklahoma defense, or a lack of need to push the ball downfield in a blowout victory.

Georgia's pass defense was torched not only by Jalen Milroe for 374 passing yards and 11.3 yards per attempt, but also by Mississippi State’s backup quarterback Michael Van Buren Jr., who threw for 306 yards and three touchdowns last week.

The Bulldogs figure to score in this game, as Carson Beck has had two 439-yard passing performances in the last three games. I highlighted his chances for a big day in my Georgia vs. Texas player props.

That should force Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian to rely on the passing game more than he needed to against an inept Sooners offense.

Ewers has not thrown for 255 or more yards since the season opener. But with pro scouts glued to this game, I expect Ewers - who is among the favorites to go No. 1 by the NFL draft odds - to have one of his best games of the season to this point.

Over backers should take advantage of the best number at FanDuel, as the O/U is as high as 258.5 at bet365. Interestingly, bet365 raised its total from 254.5 earlier in the week, so there appears to be plenty of support on this wager. 

Best odds: -114 via FanDuel | Implied probability: 53.27%

Quinn Ewers Under 0.5 interceptions (-120) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Bulldogs defense has not been able to generate turnovers at a high rate, as their five takeaways through six games (three of which have been interceptions) are tied for the second-fewest in the SEC.

Sooners head coach Brent Venables was masterful in his game-planning to shut down the Texas passing game, as Ewers’ averaged a career-low 1.7 air yards on his completions, per ESPN Research.

If Kirby Smart employs similar tactics, it could act as a hedge of sorts on our passing yardage wager, but it would also help Ewers’ ability to play interception-free football as he would not be pushing the ball downfield as much.

A $10 winning wager would net $8.33 in profits at bet365.

Best odds: -120 via bet365 | Implied probability: 54.55%
