After a Week 7 shake-up that saw five top-seven teams lose, Week 8 brings several high-stakes tests: No. 6 Indiana visits Michigan, No. 2 BYU travels to UCF, and No. 7 Ole Miss faces No. 19 Texas. Auburn looks to build on its upset of No. 1 Georgia against LSU, while No. 10 Utah hosts No. 14 Houston.

By the Numbers
  • 5 top-seven teams lost in Week 7.
  • BYU is seeking to keep its undefeated season intact.
  • Texas is trying to avoid a third consecutive loss.
Yes, But

Indiana arrives after its first loss in nearly two years, while Michigan turns to new starting quarterback Tommy Carr in a bid to revive its season. BYU is riding a major win over Notre Dame, but faces a road test at UCF.

What's Next

Week 8’s results could reshape the national rankings and conference races, with marquee matchups scheduled from noon through late evening Saturday.

Bottom Line

After a week of major upsets, the biggest question is whether contenders can respond under pressure—or whether another round of losses will scramble the college football picture.
