The 2026 Big 12 rushing touchdowns race remains tightly bunched early in the season because multiple proven or high-upside running backs return or enter the conference with comparable workloads and supporting casts. LJ Martin of BYU enters as the consensus leader after posting 1,305 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns in 2025 while earning preseason offensive player of the year honors, yet Cameron Dickey at Texas Tech (14 rushing TDs last year), Cam Cook at West Virginia (16 TDs at Jacksonville State), Caleb Hawkins at Oklahoma State (25 TDs at North Texas), Wayshawn Parker at Utah, and Joe Jackson at Kansas State all posted strong volume and efficiency numbers. Dawson Pendergrass at Baylor returns healthy after missing 2025, while shared backfields, offensive line upgrades, and quarterback situations at several programs create parity that limits any single candidate’s implied probability.
