Five top-25 college football teams face significant upset alerts in Week 10, according to CBS Sports analysis following the first College Football Playoff rankings release.
No. 2 Georgia at No. 10 Ole Miss (+3.5)
The defending SEC champions have seen their offense cool off, scoring 20, 24, and 20 points in their last three games against Alabama, Auburn, and Florida. Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss has torched Georgia in both career starts and gets the home advantage in the rubber match.
No. 3 Utah vs. No. 9 BYU (+5.5)
The Holy War in Salt Lake City kicks off at 10 a.m. local time. BYU has won three straight in the series after Utah won nine consecutive from 2010-2019. A BYU win would put the Cougars in the driver's seat for the Big 12 title and a potential top-4 CFP seed.
No. 8 UCLA at Minnesota (+5.5)
The unbeaten Bruins face cross-country travel and a 12 p.m. ET kickoff, putting players on an early-morning body clock. Minnesota nearly upset Indiana last week, with Luke Drzewiecki hitting a 60-yard field goal in regulation before losing in overtime.
No. 7 Texas at No. 18 Missouri (+2.5)
Texas has played five single-possession games this season and enters with key injuries to running back Hollywood Smothers and offensive tackle Trevor Goosby. Missouri boasts a plus-8 turnover margin, second-best in the SEC, and has only five giveaways.
No. 12 Ohio State vs. No. 23 Oregon (+7.5)
Ohio State must bounce back from a loss at USC with freshman quarterback Luke Fahey making his second start. Oregon has wins over Boise State and USC, and Dylan Raiola threw for 336 yards and three touchdowns in a comeback win over Northwestern. Ohio State's defense has slipped to 12th in the Big Ten in opponent third-down conversion rate, and the Buckeyes are 6-4 in their last 10 games under Ryan Day.
