🔥 Mario Craver to score anytime TD (+145) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Craver hasn’t scored since Week 3, but he’s continued to be an integral part of this offense, recording at least 77 yards in five of seven games, while also hauling in at least four passes in all but one game.

Craver leads Texas A&M with 36 catches for 674 yards, 174 more yards than any of his teammates. And while the LSU defense is allowing less than 1.0 passing touchdowns per game, Texas A&M is averaging 2.3 per contest. Texas A&M quarterback Marcel Reed has thrown at least one touchdown in all but one game this season, as he’s essentially been matchup-proof. That bodes well for his favorite target.

Caesars’ price of +145 implies a 40.82% chance that Craver scores. A $10 bet would profit $14.50.


🔥 Barion Brown to score anytime TD (+225) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Brown has just one touchdown this season, and it was scored against SE Louisiana. Yet, while four LSU receivers have more touchdowns than him this year, this is a great matchup for Garrett Nussmeier’s favorite target.

This season, Brown leads LSU with 32 receptions, and he’s second on the team with 301 yards. With eight more catches than anyone else, I expect Nussmeier to keep going to Brown in a game his team is likely to be trailing. And with Texas A&M allowing 1.6 passing touchdowns per game, and LSU averaging 1.7, I expect the little scoring LSU does in this contest to be through the air.

DraftKings’ price of +225 implies a 30.77% chance that one of the best Texas A&M vs. LSU anytime touchdown scorer predictions hits. A $10 bet would profit $22.50.


🔥 Rueben Owens II to score 2+ touchdowns (+320) ⭐⭐⭐

Starting running back Le’Veon Moss was injured against Florida two weeks ago, and Owens has stepped in and scored three touchdowns since. Over the last two weeks, Owens has 31 carries and 120 yards on top of two catches for 27 yards.

As a team, Texas A&M is averaging 2.1 rushing touchdowns per game, and Owens gets a solid matchup against a defense that has surrendered eight touchdowns over the last three weeks. Six of those scores were rushing touchdowns. 

While the price for Owens to score just one touchdown (-155) is steep against the 10th-ranked scoring defense, there is value in taking a shot on him to score twice in this game. FanDuel’s price of +320 implies a 23.81% chance Owens scores twice. A $10 bet would profit $32.
