The undefeated Missouri Tigers are going for their sixth consecutive win of the season when they host the No. 8-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide at Faurot Field in Columbia, Missouri this weekend. While the Crimson Tide may outrank their hosts, who are No. 14 at the moment, Mizzou is averaging the most yards per game (547.6) in the SEC so far this season and Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer isn’t underestimating them, saying “I mean, they’re 5-0,” adding that his team needs to be ready to “shut up and do the work” when they meet their SEC foes.

The two teams meet Saturday; kickoff is scheduled for 12 p.m. ET and the game airs on ABC and will stream on ESPN unlimited. Here’s how to watch the Alabama vs. Missouri game and what to know about how to watch the entire NCAA football season.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — They start sailing up days or even weeks before kickoff, a blaze-orange armada of watercraft packed with beverages, Tennessee regalia and Volunteer fans who have turned a bend in the Tennessee River into one of the finest tailgating — sorry, sailgating — venues in college football. Sure, you could just tailgate on your school’s quad, surrounded by academic buildings … or you could enlist in the Vol Navy.

Every weekend the Vols are in town, massive yachts, tiny bass boats, stuffed-full houseboats and one-sailor dinghies tie up just outside Neyland Stadium, a massive flotilla dedicated to all things Rocky Top. It’s a magnificent tradition, one that’s either an every-game must-do or a one-and-done, depending on how hard you go at it before, during and after the game. If you haven’t yet been, you’re always welcome, long as you’re piloting something seaworthy.

The Vol Navy’s origins: Parking is hell

The Vol Navy’s origins spring from that most relatable of gameday challenges: beating the traffic to the stadium. Neyland is one of only two college football stadiums beside a body of water — Washington’s Husky Stadium, on the shores of Lake Washington, is the other — which makes for a scenic vista but hellish traffic access.

In 1962, George Mooney, the longtime play-by-play man for the Vols in the ‘50s and ‘60s, hit on an innovative idea to get to the stadium: by sea rather than by land.

“All the games back then were at 2:30 in the afternoon,” says Bud Sherrod, a Knoxville insurance executive. “We didn’t have lights on the stadium. So he and a friend of his decided that traffic was such a pain in the butt that they would come up to a game in his little boat, a little runabout with probably a 30-horsepower on the back. And then he joked about it on the air,…

Unbeaten and situated inside the top 10, Indiana and Oregon square off Saturday afternoon at Autzen Stadium with Big Ten title and College Football Playoff implications very much in play. The No. 3 Ducks carry the nation’s longest home winning streak into the matchup with the seventh-ranked Hoosiers, whose explosive offense promises to deliver fireworks in Eugene.

Michigan heads to Los Angeles for a battle with USC, a signature win opportunity for Lincoln Riley coming out of an open date. USC’s expecting a raucous environment inside the Coliseum, to which Wolverines coach Sherrone Moore said this week “it’s sold out because Michigan’s coming.”

We’re picking winners and against the spread plays for those two games and several others across a loaded docket on Saturday.

Last week’s results: Brad Crawford (9-1 straight, 4-6 ATS); Chris Hummer (9-1, 7-3 ATS). Not a good week for yours truly while Hummer cashed several tickets with a great card. Alabama’s backdoor cover on fourth down was disheartening for Vanderbilt bettors and taking Michigan to cover against Wisconsin was a whiff over this way. It’s time to bounce back in Week 7.

Season results: Crawford (45-15 straight, 34-26 ATS); Hummer (45-15; 27-33).

For clarity, these lines were taken from FanDuel Sportsbook on Oct. 5. New users at FanDuel Sportsbook get $300 in bonus bets with a winning $5 wager.

Hummer (Pitt +9.5): If freshman QB Mason Heintschel is going to play like he did in his debut (359 yards, 4 TDs) that line is great value for Pittsburgh. Though, few secondaries Pitt will see this season are as bad as Boston College’s. But I do think Pitt has the pieces on defense to at least limit Florida State’s run game. The Panthers have one of the better run defenses in the…
