Alabama vs LSU | Saturday, Nov. 7, 2026 at 3:30 p.m. ET | Tiger Stadium, Baton Rouge, LA | ABC
Nothing about this one is easy for either side. A third loss would put Alabama or LSU on the edge of the playoff picture, and both teams arrive with momentum. LSU has won four of its last five, including a 38-17 win at Auburn and a 31-0 shutout of Mississippi State. Alabama answered back-to-back losses to Georgia and Tennessee by beating Texas A&M 31-20.
History favors the Tide, who have won 15 of the 23 meetings since 2004, including 20-9 last season. This year’s quarterback matchup features Alabama’s Keelon Russell against LSU’s Sam Leavitt.

Miami vs Notre Dame | Saturday, Nov. 7, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. ET | Notre Dame Stadium, South Bend, IN | NBC
Miami is 8-0, ranked No. 1 and still an underdog. The Hurricanes have one of the most explosive offenses in the country under quarterback Darian Mensah, with 52 points against Pittsburgh, 43 against Florida State and 41 at Clemson. They also beat Notre Dame 27-24 in last season’s opener.
The Irish are 7-1 and perfect at home, with their only loss coming at BYU. Revenge, a November night in South Bend and a playoff spot on the line make this the game of the day.

The Pick: Miami Moneyline (+175)
First Bet Cover is built for exactly this kind of swing. The No. 1 team in the country is getting plus money, it already beat this opponent a year ago, and its offense hasn’t been slowed down by anyone. Bet $100 on Miami to win outright and you collect $275 if the Hurricanes stay perfect. If Notre Dame wins, BetMGM refunds your $100 in bonus bets.
If you’d rather take your shot earlier in the day, Alabama at +154 is the other plus-money play worth a look. The Tide have owned this series, and getting a historically dominant program as an underdog doesn’t happen often.
Two heavyweight games and two underdogs worth backing. New users can cover their first bet up to $1,500 on Alabama-LSU, Miami-Notre Dame or any college football game with BetMGM bonus code FOXNEWS.
