Week 10 continued the trend of every weekend feeling fresh and unpredictable. Notre Dame knocked Miami from No. 1 with a 31-24 win, Utah beat BYU 28-20, Alabama handled LSU 31-13, and Oregon won 41-28 at Ohio State. Georgia made the loudest statement, crushing Ole Miss 42-7 to reclaim the top spot in the AP poll.
Week 11 has fewer headline games, but the playoff pressure is just as real. Four AP-ranked matchups lead the board, while unbeaten UCLA faces a surging Illinois team and No. 1 Georgia tries to avoid the top-two upset trend against Missouri. Here’s our preview of the Week 11 college football odds, AP Top 25, and betting trends.

College Football Week 11 Games to Watch
Friday, Nov. 13: Illinois at No. 4 UCLA – 9 p.m. ET, FOX
- Spread: UCLA -10 (-108)
- Moneyline: Illinois +310, UCLA -400
- Total: 48
UCLA is 9-0 despite losing quarterback Nico Iamaleava for the season. Ty Dieffenbach has kept the offense functional, and the Bruins have won all four games without Iamaleava by at least 17 points. Illinois is more dangerous than its record suggests after four consecutive Big Ten wins, including a 24-13 victory over Nebraska.
Saturday, Nov. 14: No. 11 Wake Forest at No. 25 SMU – 12 p.m. ET, ESPN
- Spread: SMU -1 (-105)
- Moneyline: Wake Forest -108, SMU -112
- Total: 60.5
Wake Forest brings a six-game winning streak to Dallas, but the near-pick’em line reflects uncertainty around quarterback Gio Lopez, who missed the Merrimack College game with a leg injury. SMU’s route to ending the streak is QB pressure and preventing early-down efficiency; Wake’s offense is much harder to defend when Lopez can run and gun with a short field
Saturday, Nov. 14: Missouri at No. 1 Georgia – 3:30 p.m. ET, ABC
- Spread: Georgia -15 (-112)
- Moneyline: Missouri +500, Georgia -700
- Total: 47
Georgia leads the SEC in scoring offense and scoring defense, averaging 41.1 points while allowing 14.0. Gunner Stockton has completed 70.9% of his passes, and the Bulldogs just produced five sacks against an Ole Miss line that had not allowed one in three games. Missouri kept pace with Texas before losing 34-20, but Georgia is easily a more complete opponent.
Saturday, Nov. 14: No. 15 USC at No. 6 Indiana – 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS
- Spread: Indiana -7.5 (-103)
- Moneyline: USC +240, Indiana -290
- Total: 49.5
Both teams had a Week 10 bye after opposite Week 9 results: USC upset Ohio State 30-18, while Indiana needed overtime to beat Minnesota 23-16. The Hoosiers have won five of six Big Ten games by one possession and now face uncertainty at quarterback. Josh Hoover has struggled since injuring his arm, and Curt Cignetti has not committed to Hoover or Grant Wilson. USC’s pass rush can make that decision especially important.
Saturday, Nov. 14: No. 2 Utah at No. 22 Arizona – 7:30 p.m. ET, FOX
- Spread: Arizona +3 (-117)
- Moneyline: Utah -142, Arizona +122
- Total: 55
Utah is 9-0 after surviving the emotional ‘Holy War,’ but this is a difficult follow-up spot against a rested and hungry Arizona team. The Wildcats improved to 7-2 by beating TCU and have already shown they can stay competitive with the Big 12’s best. Devon Dampier’s dual-threat ability remains Utah’s advantage, although Arizona’s best chance is to force longer drives and prevent the explosive plays that helped the Utes produce 441 yards against BYU.
Saturday, Nov. 14: No. 8 Texas at No. 24 LSU – 7:30 p.m. ET, ABC
- Spread: LSU -3.5 (-112)
- Moneyline: Texas +158, LSU -183
- Total: 46
LSU remains favored despite its 31-13 loss to Alabama because its defense still matches up well with an inconsistent Texas offense. The Tigers rank 18th nationally in defensive EPA per play, while Texas sits 90th offensively. Arch Manning was steadier in the 34-20 win at Missouri, but LSU’s front can disrupt the pocket without exposing its secondary.
Key Players to Watch in College Football Week 11
- Gunner Stockton, QB, Georgia: His 70.9% completion rate and mobility give Missouri a difficult matchup behind a line that controlled Ole Miss.
- Arch Manning, QB, Texas: LSU’s defensive front presents a bad matchup for an offense ranked 90th in EPA per play.
- Devon Dampier, QB, Utah: Arizona must contain his rushing ability without leaving space for Utah’s explosive passing game.
