Week 9 features five matchups between teams ranked in the AP Top 25.
This is the highest-ranked matchup so far this season, which means we could be in for another great Saturday in college football.
Here’s what we’re looking at later today: (Scroll down for live updates.)
Time: 4:15pm | TV: SEC Network | Line: Texas -18.5 | Total: 53.5
The newly ranked Commodores will host the Longhorns at home three weeks after their upset against Alabama. Can Vandy shock the world again? A lot will depend on the play of two-way quarterback Diego Pavia, who will face a Texas team that suffered a heartbreaking loss to Georgia a week ago.
Time: 7:30pm | TV: ABC | Line: Texas A&M -2.5 | Total: 53.5
These are the only teams unbeaten in the SEC this season, so the winner will get an inside track to the conference title game. LSU’s Garrett Nussmeier has been one of the most productive QBs in the nation thus far and will be facing an A&M defense that has protected the pass very well.
