Week 8 was another wild one.
It proved to be a strong follow-up act to last week's day of absolute chaos as three more top-10 teams went down. Unbeaten BYU and Texas Tech teams lost to UCF and Cincinnati, respectively, while Ole Miss lost on the road to a resurgent Texas squad.
Two more top-15 teams went down on the road on walk-off field goals as Tennessee lost to South Carolina while Iowa was bested by Minnesota.
