After an exciting Week 7, another big week of college football awaits in Week 8. It features yet another Top-5 matchup, and FanDuel has Last Minute Bets for all the action.

The marquee games are in the SEC, where No. 1 Texas and No. 5 Georgia are preparing to battle it out in Austin. That will follow the annual Third Saturday in October showdown between No. 7 Alabama and No. 11 Tennessee in Knoxville, meaning there are plenty of College Football Playoff implications during Saturday’s slate of games.

FanDuel has all the late lines for the day, which includes six games featuring Top-10 teams. Here’s a full breakdown.

Miami and Louisville will help get the day started in a battle of ACC contenders. The Hurricanes continue to roll, led by a high-powered offense, while the Cardinals will look to stay on the winning side after snapping a two-game skid last time out against Virginia.

FanDuel over/under: 59.5

No. 7 Alabama vs. No. 11 Tennessee

Time: 3:30 p.m. ET

The Third Saturday in October means there are cigars waiting for the winning team as Alabama and Tennessee square off. Both teams avoided upsets last week, and it’s sure to be an interesting battle between the Crimson Tide offense and Volunteers defense.

FanDuel point spread: Alabama -3.5
FanDuel over/under: 56.5

No. 8 LSU vs. Arkansas

Time: 7 p.m. ET

Arkansas still has some momentum following its upset over Tennessee prior to its bye week, and Taylen Green is expected to play after leaving that game with an injury. The Razorbacks will have to face an LSU team that’s also riding high following an overtime win over Ole Miss last week, and the Tigers are 3.5-point favorites on Saturday, according to FanDuel.

Time: 7:30 p.m. ET

A 6-0 record has Iowa State in the Top 10 of the AP Top 25 entering Week 8, and the Cyclones are holding teams to just 11 points per game to start the year. They’ll take on a UCF team that’s in the midst of a quarterback change as Gus Malzahn announced Jacurri Brown would start over KJ Jefferson.

FanDuel point spread: Iowa State -13.5
FanDuel over/under: 49.5

No. 10 Clemson vs. Virginia

Time: Noon ET

After a blowout loss to Georgia to start the year, Clemson has found a new gear to get into the Top 10. The Tigers will take on one of Dabo Swinney’s former assistants in Tony Elliott and Virginia on Saturday, and they’re hefty 20.5-point favorites, according to FanDuel.

FanDuel point spread: Clemson -20.5
