The No. 13 South Carolina Gamecocks face off against the Virginia Tech Hokies in one of the marquee games on the Sunday slate of college football.
South Carolina comes into the game as a -7 favorite with the over/under sitting at 51.5 total points.
I have a Gamecock-focused parlay for Sunday, including a moneyline bet and an anytime touchdown scorer player prop.
Let’s dive into the South Carolina vs. Virginia Tech odds and my college football picks for Sunday, Aug. 31

Moneyline Pick: South Carolina ML
The Gamecocks and Hokies will face off on Sunday afternoon in a highly anticipated matchup.
I love this spot for the favorite today.
South Carolina returns signal-caller LaNorris Sellers. He was one of the best quarterbacks in the SEC last season and will be one of the top quarterbacks in the nation.
Sellers and the Gamecocks offense will control the pace of this game on the ground.
Virginia Tech will struggle to move the football consistently against this improved South Carolina defense.
South Carolina Player Prop Pick: LaNorris Sellers Anytime TD
As mentioned, Sellers enjoyed a career year in 2024.
The Florence, South Carolina, native rushed for seven touchdowns last season and is one of the best dual-threat quarterbacks in the country.
I expect Sellers to get multiple opportunities with his legs in the red zone today while having the capability to break a long run at any point in the contest.
A South Carolina victory and a Sellers touchdown pays out at plus-money, so I’m going to ride with the Gamecocks and their quarterback in this Sunday afternoon SEC/ACC clash.
