Some of the nation’s top teams have relatively soft matchups on Saturday, giving us a few great touchdown scorer prop bets for Week 4.
I’m looking at teams like the Mississippi Rebels and Notre Dame Fighting Irish to move the ball through the air this weekend, which has me targeting three receivers to find paydirt.
Let’s take a closer look at who I think has the most value in my free college football picks.
College football anytime touchdown picks for Week 4
Eli Raridon (+175)
Harrison Wallace III (-145)
Makai Lemon (-145)
Prop bet #1: Eli Raridon anytime TD
The odds on the senior tight end are too good for me to ignore in Week 4. Eli Raridon continues to be a productive receiver for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, as he caught four more balls for 85 yards against Texas A&M last Saturday.
Notre Dame comes in as a 25.5-point favorite and should have little trouble scoring points against the Purdue Boilermakers, who gave up 33 against USC last week in their first meeting with a power conference opponent.
At a nice plus number, I’m taking Raridon to finally get into the endzone.
Prop bet #2: Harrison Wallace III anytime TD
Mississippi Rebels senior Harrison Wallace III has been a great transfer pickup, having caught 15 balls for 339 yards and two touchdowns in his first three games with his new team after three seasons with Penn State.
That includes a score on six catches against Arkansas in a 41-35 victory last weekend.
Although the Tulane Green Wave are off to a 3-0 start, they have allowed 31 points to South Alabama and 27 to Duke in their last two games.
Mississippi's offense is averaging 330.7 ypg in the passing attack, and that should mean plenty of opportunities for Wallace to break another long gain and pick up a touchdown.
Prop bet #3: Makai Lemon anytime TD
The USC Trojans are enjoying an excellent start to their season, winning their first three games by 16 points or more.
Things won’t get too much tougher on Saturday night as the Trojans host the Michigan State Spartans, who have gotten to 3-0 in much less impressive fashion and come in as 18.5-point underdogs.
Despite a weak strength of schedule, Michigan State is giving up 5.4 yards per play and 7.3 yards per passing attempt, as quarterbacks have thrown all over its defense in the early going.
That’s music to the ears of the Trojans, and junior wide receiver Makai Lemon has an excellent chance of cashing in on the Spartans' secondary.
Lemon is the only Trojan with two receiving touchdowns, nearly twice as many catches as anyone else on the team, and he boasts a team-high 311 receiving yards.
