Summary

Can you believe it's already Week 8? We forge ahead with our big preview of Week 8 games with the appropriate audio treatment for an enormous Holy War between Utah and BYU in Provo. Plus, we unpack significance of Georgia Tech vs Duke as an ACC title tiebreaker, the road danger for Oklahoma and LSU -- two SEC teams that cannot run the ball -- traveling to South Carolina and Vandy, the underrated aspects of Texas Tech's quick rise, and the debate over whether Auburn can finally get a big win. And finally, some rapid fire picks, under the radar games, your Window of Opportunity and ideal quadboxes, and a Pat League Lightning Round for the ages as Lafayette might have a shot to upset an FBS opponent.
