Monday's National Championship between Indiana and Miami will conclude what has been a fantastic college football season. So, it's only right to get in on the action with some anytime touchdown props.
With no Monday Night Football in the NFL this week, Action Network's Gilles Gallant pivoted to the college football side to see where the touchdown value lies in the 2026 College Football Playoff National Championship.
He came through with two anytime touchdown picks, including a best bet for both Indiana and Miami. It just so happens that his picks are on wide receivers: Indiana's Omar Cooper Jr. and Miami's CJ Daniels.
Let's take a look at Gallant's Indiana vs. Miami anytime TD picks and National Championship touchdown props for Monday, Jan. 19.
Indiana vs. Miami Anytime TD Picks
- Indiana WR Omar Cooper Jr. (+140)
- Miami WR CJ Daniels (+280)
Indiana Anytime TD Pick: Omar Cooper Jr. (+140)
After putting up a combined 94 points in their two playoff games, all the value on Indiana's touchdown scorers have an extreme premium on them to find the end zone.
Out of the Hoosiers' pass-catchers, Omar Cooper Jr. stands out the most with value at +130 since he’s been the most consistent.
While he did have an explosion early in the season with four touchdowns, he still finished the year with 13 total (scored in 10-of-14 games) while closing the year on a six-game scoring streak.
With both of these defenses being a bit stronger against the run and both quarterbacks liking to throw, Cooper is a pretty decent grab. After all, it’s not often you can get a WR who scored 13 TDs and still see a plus-money price for a score.

Miami Anytime TD Pick: CJ Daniels (+280)
With Miami coming in as an 8-point “home” underdog and facing Indiana's tough run defense, I think the value on Hurricane touchdown scorers is on the pass-catchers — as long as quarterback Carson Beck can keep the turnovers in check.
That’s a big if, but if Beck does, then I like the chances of wide receiver CJ Daniels to score a touchdown at +260.
I expect Daniels to see an uptick in targets if Hoosiers cornerback D’Angelo Ponds is matched up with WR1 Malachi Toney. While his teammate, Keelan Marion, scored last week, that was only his second TD of the year.
In a big spot where the Hurricanes will likely be forced to throw in a trailing game script, let’s take Daniels to pick up his eighth TD of the year.
