Week 6 of college football will feature just one matchup between the top 25 teams (the outcome wasn’t exactly decided), but there are still plenty of teams to watch for an upset.
Usually this kind of week works like this. Will a team like No. 4 Tennessee be intimidated by Arkansas? What about Cal’s No. 8 Miami in the ACC After Dark Special? We’ll find out soon.
Here are the games to watch on Saturday: All times are Eastern Time and all odds are from BetMGM.
7:30pm | TV: ABC | Line: Tennessee -13.5 | Total 58.5
While Tennessee’s offense has produced highlights thus far, the defense has given up just 28 points in four games, showing that the defensive line is one of the best in the SEC. This will be a big challenge for the Arkansas offense, which is explosive when it’s not turning the ball over.
10:30pm | TV: ESPN | Line: Miami -10.5 | Total: 54.5
Miami is learning what life is like in the new ACC as it heads west to visit the Bears for a late-night kickoff in Berkeley, which also hosts “Game Day.” Can Miami and Heisman hopeful QB Cam Ward continue to compete against a motivated California team that is off to a 3-1 start?
