The college football season enters November and the stakes for the College Football Playoff and conference races are heating up. There’s pressure to win each week because even the smallest slip-up can be detrimental to teams reaching their goals.
That intense pressure and motivated opposition can lead to unexpected performances and surprising outcomes. Week 10 offers a bunch of opportunities for seasons to be ruined, while others come away with victories that continue their run toward the postseason. But where will those results come from?
That’s why the USA TODAY Sports college football staff is here. Scooby Axson, Jordan Mendoza, Paul Myerberg, Erick Smith, Eddie Timanus and Dan Wolken weigh in with their bold predictions for Week 10 of the college football season:
South Carolina misses another upset, this time against Texas A&M
South Carolina has played good football this season except for their dud in a 27-3 loss to Ole Miss last month, and have taken Alabama and LSU down to the wire in games they could have won. The Gamecocks welcome Texas A&M, who are the only undefeated team left in SEC play and by winning out can secure a conference championship berth.
There is no telling who the Aggies will start at quarterback, whether it is Marcel Reed or Conner Weigman, who was benched in A&M’s win against LSU. No matter who gets the nod for the Aggies in Saturday’s game, expect South Carolina to play well but to come up one or two plays short in another failed upset bid. — Scooby Axson
