Avery Johnson OVER 183.5 Passing Yards (-114)
It's been hard to trust Avery Johnson as a passing threat with the Kansas State Wildcats. In saying that, there should be real confidence in his capability in this matchup against West Virginia. The Mountaineers have been dangerous against the run, and it's hard to project Johnson to have a big day with his legs. On the other hand, the Mountaineers have been atrocious against the pass, allowing 9.6 yards per attempt. Even if Johnson isn't at his best, it's not an overly daunting number to go over on.

Antonio Williams OVER 55.5 Receiving Yards (-114)
This is a nice matchup for Antonio Williams and the Clemson Tigers passing attack. Since the Tigers were limited against Georgia in Week 1, they've been one of the most consistent offenses in the country. Williams has compiled 349 receiving yards and five touchdowns this year. Facing off against a Virginia defense that's been much more susceptible through the air, and you have a strong recipe for targeting Williams to have a big day.
Dillon Bell OVER 55.5 Receiving Yards (-114)
The Georgia Bulldogs have been at their best offensively when they've been able to feature Dillon Bell in a key role. We saw what Bell did in a similar game environment against Alabama, and we're projecting a similar output on Saturday night in Austin, Texas. If Georgia trails in this matchup like the line indicates they will, Bell is in for a productive night.
Nico Iamaleava UNDER 199.5 Passing Yards (-114)
After an electric start to the regular season for the Tennessee Volunteers, Nico Iamaleava has taken a step back over the last month. Iamaleava has gone under 199.5 passing yards in each of his last five appearances. Passing the football has been a real issue for this offense, and I don't envision that changing against an Alabama defense that's allowing just 6.1 yards per pass. (Hint: that's a dominant number)

Andrew Armstrong OVER 75.5 Receiving Yards (-114)
One area that the LSU Tigers have struggled with is their secondary. Despite the loss, Ole Miss found success in their passing attack last week against the Tigers. We expect Razorbacks wideout Andrew Armstrong to be heavily featured in this Week 8 tilt. Armstrong has already racked up 38 receptions for 552 yards, highlighting the trust and confidence that quarterback Taylen Green has in him.
