2018 College Football Rankings – Week 8

The biggest development:

UCF did not rise despite losses by four higher-ranked teams, but their American Conference now has three teams in the top 22, and a fourth (Houston) in the running. Of course that will change when they start playing each other. They’re all up there now because the big three are all undefeated, and Houston has but a single loss. (Houston is the only one that plays a tough non-conference opponent – Texas Tech – and that accounted for their loss.)
