The 2026 Big 12 rushing touchdowns race remains tightly bunched in early September because a deep group of proven and emerging running backs returns across the conference, with no single back establishing clear separation after the 2025 season. Reigning Offensive Player of the Year LJ Martin leads BYU’s backfield following 1,305 yards and 12 scores, while Texas Tech’s Cameron Dickey (1,124 yards, 14 TDs), Utah’s Wayshawn Parker, and Oklahoma State transfer Caleb Hawkins (25 TDs at North Texas) headline a crowded list of candidates. Additional depth from returning players such as Dawson Pendergrass at Baylor, Cam Cook at West Virginia, and several transfers creates shared workloads and injury risks that dilute any one player’s implied probability. Trader consensus therefore prices the field evenly, reflecting the league’s balanced rushing attacks and the unpredictable distribution of goal-line opportunities across 16 teams.
