G6 Week 10 schedule and early lines: Five ranked matchups and an elimination game in the Mountain West

Five ranked Diehard G6 Top 25 matchups headline the G6 Week 10 slate — the most ranked-vs-ranked action of the season.

The headliner is No. 16 Wyoming (5-3, 4-1 MW) at No. 22 UNLV (5-3, 3-1 MW) on Saturday at 9:30 PM CT on CBSSN. Both are chasing unbeaten No. 2 New Mexico (7-1, 4-0 MW). The loser falls two games back with three weeks remaining and is effectively eliminated from the conference title race. UNLV is a 7-point home favorite at Allegiant Stadium.

No. 3 UTSA (7-1, 4-0 American) visits No. 25 FAU (5-3, 2-2 American) on Thursday at 6:30 PM CT on ESPN in the week's first ranked showdown. The 71.5 over/under is the highest on the Week 10 board — last week's FAU-North Texas game hit 89 combined points on the same total.

No. 20 Buffalo (5-3, 3-1 MAC) at No. 18 Miami (OH) (5-3, 3-1 MAC) on Tuesday at 7 PM CT on ESPN opens the week. Both are behind unbeaten Ohio (4-0). The loser drops a full game back in the MAC standings with the tiebreaker gone.

No. 21 Air Force (6-2, 3-2 MW) at No. 23 Army (5-3, 4-2 American) on Saturday at 6:30 PM CT on CBS is the annual rivalry game with conference implications. Army is a 3.5-point home favorite.

No. 24 Texas State (4-4, 2-2 Pac-12) at No. 7 Oregon State (5-3, 3-1 Pac-12) on Saturday at 9:30 PM CT on CW features the week's newest ranked team. Texas State enters the poll for the first time after pushing No. 1 Boise State to 46-45. Oregon State needs a win to stay one game behind Boise after last week's loss at Fresno State. Oregon State is a 6.5-point home favorite.

The week's most notable line belongs to No. 11 South Florida (6-2, 2-2 American), which visits unranked East Carolina (4-4, 2-2 American) as a 1.5-point underdog on Friday at 6:30 PM CT on ESPN2. Oddsmakers favor the home team despite USF's superior record.

Three games carry over/under totals above 68 — UTSA at FAU (71.5), Texas State at Oregon State (70.5) and No. 1 Boise State at Colorado State (68.5).
