College Football Predictions: ESPN picks winners of every Top 25 game in Week 7

The latest college football predictions rolled in from ESPN’s FPI percentages as we turn the page to Week 7 of college football.

Highlighting the weekend is Oregon going to Washington for a top 10 matchup in the Pac-12. This could really shape up the early College Football Playoff picture and also help some Heisman Trophy resumes.

Let’s dive into ESPN’s FPI predictions for every top 25 game in Week 7.

No. 8 Oregon vs. No. 7 Washington

Kickoff: 3:30 p.m. ET (ABC)
Spread: Washington (-3)
FPI Prediction: Oregon – 54.8%

This is the game of the week and it could determine supremacy in the Pac-12 conference. Bo Nix vs. Michael Penix Jr. is going to be must-watch television.

No. 10 USC vs. No. 21 Notre Dame

Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. ET (NBC/Peacock)
Spread: Notre Dame (-2.5)
FPI Prediction: Notre Dame – 61.9%

Notre Dame plays host this week and the Fighting Irish could be right back in the thick of the New Year’s Six with a win. The predictions indicate USC’s defense could be a huge liability.

No. 25 Miami vs. No. 12 North Carolina

Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. ET (ABC)
Spread: North Carolina (-3.5)
FPI Prediction: North Carolina – 61.2%

The Hurricanes could be reeling as they nearly dropped out of the top 25 rankings after a loss to Georgia Tech. The Tar Heels are rolling and could make this a bad game, despite the closeness on paper.

No. 18 UCLA vs. No. 15 Oregon State

Kickoff: 8:00 p.m. ET (FOX)
Spread: Oregon State (-3.5)
FPI Prediction: Oregon State – 69.5%

Another juicy ranked matchup in the Pac-12. UCLA is once again, quietly, rolling under Chip Kelly with freshman quarterback Dante Moore. BUt Oregon State is the other quiet assassin. Buckle up for this one.

Texas A&M vs. No. 19 Tennessee

Kickoff: 3:30 p.m. ET (CBS)
Spread: Tennessee (-3.5)
FPI Prediction: Tennessee – 56.7%

Tennessee is the favorite here but Texas A&M might have something cooking after a close loss to Alabama. Max Johnson is in at quarterback, so don’t rule out this team putting up points.

Auburn vs. No. 22 LSU

Kickoff: 7:00 p.m. ET (ESPN)
Spread: LSU (-11)
FPI Prediction: LSU – 75.8%

The Tigers have quite the offense, so this could be another showcase game for Jayden Daniels and company. Can Auburn take advantage of a questionable LSU defense though? The matchup became that much more intriguing.
