Here are the latest college football odds for every Week 8 game via the best college football betting sites, which update live in real time.
📊 Tennessee vs. Alabama odds
- Date: Saturday, Oct. 18
- Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. ET
- Location: Bryant-Denny Stadium (Tuscaloosa, Ala.)
- How to watch: ABC
🔮 Tennessee vs. Alabama prediction
🐘 Alabama -8 (-110)
Alabama has covered the spread in six consecutive home games. It has also erased the sting of a season-opening loss to Florida State with three consecutive ranked victories, two of which were on the road at Georgia and Missouri. That is more impressive than Tennessee’s No. 10 ranking in ESPN’s game control metric and No. 19 ranking in strength of record, especially when its last two wins have come by 10 combined points against Mississippi State and Arkansas teams that are a combined 6-6 on the season.

📊 USC vs. Notre Dame odds
- Date: Saturday, Oct. 18
- Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. ET
- Location: Notre Dame Stadium (Notre Dame, Ind.)
- How to watch: NBC, Peacock
🔮 Early USC vs. Notre Dame prediction
⬇️ Under 61.5 (-110)
USC is averaging 45.5 points per game, third-most in the nation. However, they’ve scored 32 or fewer in back-to-back games. Notre Dame is allowing just 20.8 points and 351.5 yards per game, despite facing two top-five teams. Additionally, Notre Dame is averaging 36.7 rushes and 172.7 rushing yards per game, so look for them to control the clock and keep USC out of its usual offensive rhythm.- via Philip Wood's early USC vs. Notre Dame prediction
📊 Florida State vs. Stanford odds
- Date: Saturday, Oct. 18
- Kickoff: 10:30 p.m. ET
- Location: Stanford Stadium (Stanford, Calif.)
- How to watch: ESPN
🔮 Florida State vs. Stanford prediction
🪓 Florida State -17.5 (-112)
Stanford is 0-5 ATS in its last five October games, and its two outright wins this season came against San Jose State and Boston College teams that are a combined 3-9 SU.
