Analyzing the top betting prop for the Rose Bowl

In the video embedded above, CBSSports/SportsLine break down the most appealing prop bets for the 2024 Rose Bowl.

Michigan entered the 2023 season with an opportunity to three-peat as Big Ten Champions and were able to accomplish the goal, beating Ohio State for the third straight season followed by a win over Iowa to take the conference yet another time.

Offensively, Sherrone Moore’s group was led by a deep, talented unit that could end up producing double digit picks in next April’s NFL Draft. Offensively, quarterback J.J. McCarthy has the country’s top 1-2 punch at running back with Blake Corum and Donovan Edwards along with an outrageously deep offensive line group that has as many as ten starting caliber players on it according to offensive coordinator Sherrone Moore. Add in two veteran receivers and a high-ceiling tight end unit and the Wolverines established themselves as one of the nation’s top overall offenses.

Defensively, defensive coordinator Jesse Minter got great contributions from stars at cornerback (Will Johnson), safety (Rod Moore), linebacker (Junior Colson) and defensive tackle (Kris Jenkins, Mason Graham) along with a very talented edge group led by veteran Jaylen Harrell and high-ceiling players like Derrick Moore and Braiden McGregor.

Harbaugh was able to reflect on the Wolverines’ third straight conference title as they head to the College Football Playoff for the third straight year as well.

“Yeah, just as you would expect. Just a great thrill of victory, wonderful, wonderful feeling of winning. It's what we dreamed about, what we hoped for, what we've worked for, what our guys prepared for.

“Get in position; put yourself in position, to be in position to win it all.

“We've accomplished many of our goals, and now winning it all is what we had also put on the goal sheet. That's what we'll turn our one-track mind to, to this next opponent and playing Alabama in the Final Four, and we'll do what we always do. We'll play, we'll prepare, we'll practice, and get ready to give it our very best.”

Michigan will meet Alabama for a chance to play in the National Championship game on New Year’s Day on ABC.
