With Michigan (6) blowing their win in dramatic fashion to Michigan State (10) we have a new number 1 team according to the TUCFC power rating, Utah. Utah travels to USC (44) this weekend and so far being the number one rated TUCFC team has not done teams any favors, so could we see an upset?
But week 8 in the 2015 college football season is all about one game. At 7pm on Saturday, October 24th Western Kentucky (27) goes to Baton Rouge to take on LSU (4). The SEC has struggled this year out of conference so we have to hope for the best for Western. GO TOPS!!
Games to Watch This Week
Temple (6-0) at East Carolina (4-3)
So the AAC has 3 undefeated teams: Houston (24), Memphis (12), and Temple (20). Memphis this past weekend pounded Mississippi (14), so the AAC at this point has to be considered for putting a team in the playoff. Assuming one of them comes out undefeated and other teams all have multiple losses. At this point the AAC just needs these undefeated teams to keep winning. This will be a fun one to watch on a Thursday night.
Georgia Southern (5-1) at Appalachian State (5-1)
We have these two teams also on Thursday night fighting it out for the top on the Sun Belt conference. Appalachian State (23) has adjusted well to the FBS.
Western Kentucky (6-1) at LSU (6-0)
I don't know a lot about Western Kentucky football history. They have only played for the TUCFC once in 2007. Outside of that I don't know what their big football moments are, they have been more of a basketball power. But if they could pull off the upset in LSU on Saturday, well that would probably become their biggest moment.
