Texas and Alabama are trying to stop two-game slides, BYU faces a road test after beating Notre Dame, and Tennessee walks into a potential letdown at South Carolina. Gary Segars breaks down the 10 best games of College Football Week 8 in 2026, comparing the spreads and totals with his stats model, power ratings, injury notes, and strength-of-schedule adjustments.
The SEC card includes LSU at Auburn, Texas A&M at Alabama, Oklahoma at Mississippi State, Tennessee at South Carolina, and Ole Miss at Texas. Arch Manning’s turnovers, Kamario Taylor’s availability, Alabama’s run defense, and Auburn’s response to its Georgia upset all shape the discussion.
Indiana visits Michigan with a quarterback decision looming for the Wolverines, while USC heads to Wisconsin before its upcoming Ohio State matchup. The Big 12 brings BYU at UCF, Iowa State at Arizona, and Houston at Utah, with travel, rest, offensive efficiency, and unbeaten-team expectations driving the debate.
Gary reviews the season’s picks record, makes all 10 show picks, and closes with the biggest disagreements between the market, trends, and model. Several selections go against the stats model, making the explanation behind each pick especially important.
