The Pac-12 is one of the most interesting conferences in college football this season, given what could be its swan song as it is currently tied. With seven teams ranked in the AP Top 25, a top-10 matchup like the Washington vs. No. 10 Oregon game this weekend is inevitable. Both teams enter Saturday afternoon’s clash unbeaten, and they leave. The game will feature two of the best quarterbacks in the country, Michael Benix Jr. and Bo Nix.
Another heated matchup will feature in primetime as reigning Heisman Trophy favorite Caleb Williams and No. 11 USC face Sam Hartman and No. 21 Notre Dame. Also, after a shocking loss at the hands of Georgia Tech, then-No. With No. 25 Miami reeling, the Hurricanes now head to Chapel Hill to take on Drake May and No. 12 North Carolina. Week 7 of 2023 college football could feature some surprises.
Here are the betting lines, money lines and totals for Week 7 of the college football season.
