College football fans are in for a treat in Week 10 of the 2026 season, with seven ranked matchups on Saturday that carry major implications for the Big 12, SEC, and the College Football Playoff picture.
The day kicks off at 12 p.m. ET with the first-ever top-10 Holy War as No. 9 BYU visits No. 3 Utah on ABC. The Utes are undefeated and eyeing a first-round playoff bye, while BYU has won three straight in the rivalry but has looked shaky recently.
Also at noon, No. 7 Texas travels to No. 18 Missouri on ESPN. Texas has won consecutive games over Ole Miss and Mississippi State but faces injury concerns, while Missouri hopes to exploit the Longhorns' questionable roster with quarterback Austin Simmons targeting receivers Cayden Lee and Donovan Olugbode.
The afternoon features No. 5 Alabama at No. 14 LSU at 3:30 p.m. on ABC. Both coaches, Kalen DeBoer and Lane Kiffin, cannot afford another loss. Alabama's young quarterback Keelon Russell will be key, while LSU's Sam Leavitt and Blake Baker's defense aim to capitalize on home-field advantage.
At the same time, No. 23 Oregon faces No. 12 Ohio State on CBS. Ohio State is coming off a loss without Julian Sayin, and freshman quarterback Luke Fahey's development will be crucial against an Oregon team that recently beat Northwestern.
Evening games include No. 6 Kentucky at No. 13 Tennessee at 6:15 p.m. on ESPN, a tactical battle between coordinators Will Stein and Jim Knowles in a "Dark Mode" atmosphere at Neyland Stadium.
The primetime showcase pits No. 1 Miami against No. 11 Notre Dame at 7:30 p.m. on NBC. Heisman Trophy contenders CJ Carr and Darian Mensah headline a game that will heavily influence the playoff selection committee, even without Miami's Malachi Toney.
Rounding out the ranked slate, No. 2 Georgia visits No. 10 Ole Miss at 7:30 p.m. on ABC. Georgia's defense faces a stern test against Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss, while Georgia's own passing game led by Gunner Stockton has been inconsistent.
Additional notable games include No. 8 UCLA at Minnesota, Texas A&M at No. 21 South Carolina, Cincinnati at No. 17 Houston, No. 19 Iowa at Northwestern, Oklahoma at No. 24 Florida, and West Virginia at No. 15 Texas Tech, all broadcast across Fox, ESPN, SEC Network, and streaming on Fubo.
