SALT LAKE CITY — The fun of college football never stops, and Week 8 was another great one!
BYU opened up the weekend with a narrow defeat at home over Oklahoma State — in spectacular fashion, no less — to maintain an undefeated streak to the season. The result was predictable for most pickers (93%), but there was some doubt in that final minute of the game.
On the other hand, Utah and Utah State failed to get past the weekend without another loss — both in frustrating ways. New Mexico made a late comeback to upset Utah State (only 44% of people picked the Lobos), and Utah failed to get any offense against a down TCU team (only 12% had the Horned Frogs winning).
In what was considered an upset (only 17% of picks had the Bulldogs), Georgia showed Texas that the old SEC is still strong, and new blood isn't up to the test just yet. And then Indiana put on a show to absolutely overwhelm a good Nebraska team. Only 24% of picks had Nebraska, but they didn't stand a chance.
This week, BYU fans swept the top of the leaderboard, with Matthew Cannon coming out with the No. 1 spot with 164 points. Behind him was Troy Cude, who managed 154 points, followed by Matt Carpenter (150 points).
