The Week 7 college football lineup has some big games, including No. 1 Ohio State on the road against No. 17 Illinois in a Big Ten conference teaser before the main showdown between No. 7 Indiana and No. 3 Oregon in Eugene.
We looked at the College football player props in Week 7 for key touchdown scorers in what could be some high-scoring games in Week 7.
CJ Donaldson Anytime Touchdown Scorer (+135) at Bovada
Ohio State Buckeyes vs. Illinois Fighting Illini
Saturday, October 11, 2025 – 12:00 PM EDT
Everyone knows about the great wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, but let’s not overlook running back CJ Donaldson, who is 2nd on the team in touches (49) and touchdowns (5) this season.
Donaldson has scored a touchdown in 4-of-5 games so far, including in Week 1 against Texas when the Buckeyes only scored 14 points. Donaldson has 40% of the team’s 10 rushing touchdowns this season, so they usually call his number down there more than any other.
Illinois is one of the better teams the Buckeyes will have faced so far, but this defense is only No. 72 in scoring, and they’re not that strong at stopping the run. The Buckeyes will get their share of trips to the end zone in this one, and we like Donaldson with better than even odds to score another touchdown.
Omar Cooper Jr. Anytime Touchdown Scorer (-114) at Bovada
Indiana Hoosiers vs. Oregon Ducks
Saturday, October 11, 2025 – 03:30 PM EDT
Points could be fast and frequent in Oregon, where the Ducks are a 7.5-point home favorite over Indiana with a total of 55.5 points.
Indiana’s offense is excellent at passing, with 19 touchdowns through the air already, as quarterback Fernando Mendoza is a Heisman Trophy candidate. He has a pair of excellent receivers in Elijah Sarratt and Omar Cooper Jr.
Sarratt has 9 more catches than Cooper, but they’ve both caught 6 touchdowns. Cooper, however, averages more yards per touch, and he has a rushing touchdown this year, too, as he leads the team with 7 touchdowns scored.
Oregon’s defense is stingy (No. 8 in scoring), but it also hasn’t faced a quarterback like Mendoza yet. We’re going to trust him to throw another touchdown to Cooper, who has scored in 3 straight games after scoring in 3-of-4 games to end the 2024 season too.
