All games on Saturday, October 10th and on ESPN+ unless otherwise stated. I'll also include predicted margin by Massey Ratings to give you an idea of how close the games are expected to be. I've added rankings in each team's respective subdivision (RV = received votes but are outside the top 25). It's a light week, with a lot of teams having a bye.
