My college football predictions for Week 3 are backing two of the best running QBs in the nation to find pay dirt and one of the most underrated playmakers in the Big Ten to score twice.

💰 Best Week 3 touchdown scorer bets

Here are my favorite touchdown scorer bets picks based on the best college football odds for Week 3.

🔥 Waymond Jordan 2+ TDs (+250) ⭐⭐⭐

USC has a long history of producing elite running backs, from Marcus Allen to Reggie Bush, but Lincoln Riley hasn't had a consistent threat out of the backfield since arriving in Southern California. He hinted in the offseason that he may have found his answer in the form of a JUCO transfer, Waymond Jordan.

Jordan, who was the No. 1 JUCO running back in his class, has hit the ground running for the Trojans. The Hutchinson Community College product has rushed for 209 yards in two games with 164 yards after contact, seven forced missed tackles, and four runs of 15-plus yards. While he's yet to score twice in one game, USC hasn't needed him to against Missouri State and Georgia Southern.

In the Trojans' first Big Ten game of the season against Purdue, I expect an uptick in touches for Jordan, who's found the end zone twice on 21 carries so far this season. The Boilermakers are ranked just No. 68 in SP+ on defense, and Barry Odom's transfer-heavy lineup has yet to be tested. If Jordan can score twice, a $10 bet pays a $25 profit.

🔥 Byrum Brown anytime TD (+125) ⭐⭐⭐

He may not be Ashton Jeanty, but South Florida's Byrum Brown has certainly been the most impressive Group of Five player early in the season. He's already led the Bulls to upsets of two top-25 teams - Boise State and Florida - and now has South Florida ranked and looking like a worthy G5 College Football Playoff odds bet.

The 6-foot-3, 232-pounder has his biggest test of the season yet in Week 3 against a Miami team in the college football championship odds hunt. Despite this being a ranked matchup - one The CW lucked into broadcasting - the Bulls are a 17-point underdog. But Miami's defense should still struggle to stop Brown, as the Hurricanes are ranked No. 62 in SP+ on defense and outside the top 35 in EPA per rush.

It helps Brown's chances that Alex Golesh's offense runs completely through the star QB, with his usage being through the roof - he ranks top 50 in the country in carries (31). And his rugged running style, as if Matt Grothe and Quinton Flowers fused with a bull, doesn't hurt either (3.96 yards per carry after contact). If Brown scores for the third time this season, a $10 bet pays a $12.50 profit.

🔥 LaNorris Sellers anytime TD (+100) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

What should be one of the most fun games of the Saturday slate pits two of the most electric QBs in the SEC against each other in Vanderbilt's Diego Pavia and South Carolina's LaNorris Sellers. While Pavia's confidence might make it seem like he's the best player in the country, it's Sellers who profiles as a Heisman Trophy odds contender.

Although he's coming off a shaky performance against South Carolina State that saw him have a reduced role as a ball carrier (six carries for 28 yards), Sellers should be a bellcow against Vanderbilt. The Commodores are No. 57 in EPA per rush on defense, and we saw in Week 1 how much the Gamecocks need to rely on Sellers' legs this season.

In the win over Virginia Tech, Sellers had 12 carries, forcing six missed tackles while rushing for 51 yards after contact and scoring. If he can have a similar showing against Vanderbilt at home, a $10 bet on the 6-foot-3, 240-pound QB will pay a $10 profit.
