SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Week 10 of the 2026 college football season delivered a pivotal slate of Top 25 showdowns and rivalry games on Saturday, featuring high-stakes drama across the country from South Bend to Columbia.

The action began with a classic installment of the Holy War, where Utah held off a late surge from BYU to secure a defensive-minded victory. In the afternoon window, Arch Manning led Texas to a crucial road win over Missouri, while Oregon handed Ohio State a defeat that severely dented the Buckeyes' College Football Playoff hopes in the Horseshoe. Meanwhile, South Carolina notched a win by defeating Texas A&M.

The evening slate brought even more separation in the national race. Alabama rolled past LSU with a dominant second-half surge, Georgia delivered a statement rushing performance in a dominant win over Ole Miss, and Notre Dame upended top-ranked Miami 31-24 after holding off a late Hurricanes charge.
