College Football Rankings Week 8
This past Saturday we weren’t disappointed by College Football. There were several great games along with a few surprising outcomes.
Arkansas almost upset Florida in what would have been the surprise of the year, Sam Bradford re-injured his shoulder, Notre Dame fell short again in a winnable game and the Buckeyes looked as bad as they have all season.

Without further adieu, here are my Week 8 College Football Rankings:
Florida: Even though they won on the final drive of the game they won and that keeps them at #1.
Alabama: Mark Ingram was a beast against South Carolina. I would have ranked them #1 if it weren’t for their anemic passing game.
Texas: Great Longhorn defense, terrible performance by McCoy’s offensive line.
Boise State: The Broncos are 15-1 in their last 16 games as a ranked team.
USC: Pete Carroll’s is opening the playbook more and more for freshmen Matt Barkley and I am not so sure if USC beat Notre Dame as much as Notre Dame lost the game for USC.
Cincinnati: The Bearcats won their fourth straight against USF.
Iowa: Hawkeyes is 7-0 for the first time since 1985
Oregon: they prepare for Washington after a bye week.
LSU: Auburn will be their next challenge.
TCU: TCU’s 6-0 start is its best since starting 10-0 in 2003.
Miami (FL): QB Jacory Harris seems to getting his rhythm back.
Georgia Tech: QB Josh Nesbitt completed just one pass but rushed for 122 yards and three touchdowns, helping the Yellow Jackets upset the Hokies.
Penn State: Lions big defense hasn’t allowed a first-half touchdown all season.
Virginia Tech: Georgia Tech’s rushing games was too much for the Hokies.
Brigham Young: Max Hall threw for 346 yards and had four touchdowns to lead the Cougars to 6-1 record for the second straight year.
Oklahoma State: WR Hubert Anyiam made OSU fans forget that Dez Bryan wasn’t playing.
Ohio State: Terrelle Pryor is to blame.
Houston: QB Quarterback Case Keenum, threw his 77 career touchdown pass, third most in school history.
Utah: QB Terrance Cain threw for 174 yards, 2 touchdowns and ran for another to lead the Utes.
Pittsburgh: RB Dion Lewis 180 yards and 2 TD helped Pittsburgh to get their first win over Rutgers since 2004.
Kansas: the Jayhawks didn’t control the time possession of ball and were upset by Colorado.
West Virginia: RB Noel Devine had 103 yards and 2 TD in the victory over Marshall.
South Carolina: QB Stephen Garcia is not getting the job done.
Notre Dame: Yet again a team that could be great falls short when they need to step up.
Texas Tech: the Red Raiders extended their win streak over Nebraska to four games.
