College Football Predictions: ESPN picks winners of every Top 25 game in Week 10

The latest college football predictions are in from ESPN’s FPI metrics for every top 25 game in Week 10 of the regular season.

Now that the College Football Playoff rankings are in, every game means that much more. Resumes will be examined thoroughly and it truly starts this week.

Let’s dive into ESPN’s latest predictions for all of the top 25 games in Week 10. The rankings reflect the first edition of the College Football Playoff top 25, rather than the AP Poll.

No. 12 Missouri vs. No. 2 Georgia

Kickoff: 3:30 p.m. ET (CBS)
Spread: Georgia (-15.5)
FPI Prediction: Georgia – 88.3%

Arguably the game of the week as Missouri could totally change everything about this season with a head-to-head win over Georgia. That’d be the inside track to the SEC Championship. But, UGA is a huge favorite for a reason.

No. 5 Washington vs. No. 20 USC

Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. ET (ABC)
Spread: Washington (-3.5)
FPI Prediction: USC – 54%

Washington is the favorite but ESPN’s FPI predicts USC to win this one at home. The Trojans have to avoid a three-game skid to keep their Pac-12 title hopes alive. Washington is firmly in the CFP race.

No. 23 Kansas State vs. No. 7 Texas

Kickoff: 12:00 p.m. ET (FOX)
Spread: Texas (-4)
FPI Prediction: Texas – 66.8%

Texas is the favorite but Quinn Ewers remains on the mend as he is week-to-week. So how does Maalik Murphy do in his second start? The Wildcats are definitely going to make it difficult.

No. 14 LSU vs. No. 8 Alabama

Kickoff: 7:45 p.m. ET (CBS)
Spread: Alabama (-3)
FPI Prediction: Alabama – 62.4%

Alabama is the front runner in the SEC West but LSU could certainly shake things up. A loss will knock Alabama out of the CFP race while LSU wants to repeat as division champions at minimum.

No. 9 Oklahoma vs. No. 22 Oklahoma State

Kickoff: 3:30 p.m. ET (ABC)
Spread: Oklahoma (-6)
FPI Prediction: Oklahoma – 80.7%

It’s Bedlam between the Oklahoma schools! Get ready for this one since it’s the last one between Big 12 foes. Let’s see if the Sooners get back on track or the Cowboys continue to spoil their party.
