Oct. 17 features seven matchups of teams that were ranked in the AP poll last week. Though Florida's loss could remove its game from the ranks, Wisconsin-UCLA could end up being a Top 25 matchup.

  • No. 5 Ohio State at No. 7 Indiana. This will be the first time Indiana has hosted a game between two teams ranked in the AP top 10.
  • No. 3 Notre Dame at No. 8 BYU. This will be the first time BYU has hosted a game between two teams ranked in the AP top 10.
  • No. 16 Florida at No. 1 Texas. Two weeks ago, this looked like a co-headliner with Ohio State-Indiana. Never mind.
  • No. 17 Mississippi State at No. 10 LSU. Both teams are coming off a loss in their last game, though Mississippi State at least got Week 6 off.
  • No. 6 Alabama at No. 15 Tennessee. The Vols have won each of the past two meetings in Knoxville after a long rivalry losing streak.
  • No. 14 Missouri at No. 9 Ole Miss. Ole Miss transfer Austin Simmons has thrown 14 TDs and just one INT for Missouri.
  • No. 18 Oklahoma State at No. 22 Houston. The winner will emerge as a serious contender to get to the Big 12 title game.

It's never a problem for me to root against Notre Dame

I think OSU beats Indiana.

I'd be surprised if BYU can beat Notre Dame.

Florida has been exposed over the last few weeks.

Hoping Mississppi State can beat the Fighting Kiffins.

Always hope for an Alabama loss.

Missouri is flying under the radar. Beating Ole Miss on the road will be the end of that.

Oklahoma State has two tests: this and Tech. I can see them beating Houston.

I feel the only reason BYU is ranked so high is because that is only one of two teams ND plays this year. Miami is the other ND opponent. They have no strength of schedule so everything rides on the outcome of BYU and Miami games.

Don't get me wrong. I think BYU is a very very good team but top 10? Not convinced. Maybe top 12 for sure.

Excellent point. The voters rank teams in a way that can prop up and justify future rankings for the winners.

I don't really buy into this conspiracy. I think BYU is ranked highly because they were good last year, were predicted to finish near the top of the Big 12 this year and have yet to lose a game.

This is exactly the case. That said, I don't buy that this BYu team is a top 10 team. They're going to get badly exposed Saturday imo

I don't necessarily think they're a top-10 team either, especially with the injuries they have now.

But I wouldn't be surprised if their defense keeps them in the game against Notre Dame. I just don't how they score enough to win.

ND is so overrated. I hope BYU thumps them good...and then Miami a few weeks later so we can end the ND conversation for the rest of the year.

MoState/Kennesaw was evenly matched and fairly entertaining.

Sam Houston would get trucked by Steele-era BU. They are that bad.

I've got to be for the Golden Rhulers against Oregon. I want Lanning's arrogant rear end going down.
