College Football Week 8: FanSided expert picks and predictions
Week 8 is here and the FanSided staff is ready to make their college football picks and predictions for the week’s biggest games.
This week in college football doesn’t feature a ton of outstanding must-see games outside of Texas A&M at Alabama, but there is still a number of quality games that commands your attention this week. Week 8 begins on Thursday for the FanSided staff as we’ll be picking winners from two games that night with Virginia Tech and Miami in action and a sneaky good game between BYU and Boise State before the other eight games are played on Saturday.
The race is as tight as it has been all year in the FanSided college football pick ’em so the pressure is on us this week to be perfect. Joining us this week is Bama Hammer site expert Meredith Hornsby with No. 1 Alabama hosting No. 5 Texas A&M and ESPN’s College GameDay.
She made it a clean sweep with all 10 picks siding with Nick Saban and the No. 1 Crimson Tide against Trevor Knight and the Aggies. The only other unanimous picks was No. 12 West Virginia over Kenny Hill and the TCU Horned Frogs.
