What looked like it was supposed to be a quiet week in college football, at least on paper, Week 8 was a fun one. In the noon window, we saw Wake Forest remain undefeated, going on the road to defeat Army 70-56. We also saw No. 7 Penn State go down 20-18 at home to a 2-5 Illinois team on Saturday. Astoundingly, the game went into nine overtimes, with both teams trading two-point conversion attempts starting in the second overtime.
In the later slate of games, No. 8 Oklahoma State was upset by Iowa State 24-21 on the road, giving the Pokes their first loss of the season.
