A thrilling college football season is only going to get more exciting from here.

Last weekend saw more than a handful of top-25 opponents fall. The standings are now totally shaken up compared to what they were in the preseason. New teams are reaching heights they haven’t seen in decades (hello, Georgia Tech, Indiana and Vanderbilt).

Fall is officially here, which means it is most definitely crunch time with many teams having just five regular-season games left.

As per usual, The Lead is back to give you all the information you need to plan out your college football-watching schedule.

Here is how you can watch every single game in Week 8 (writer’s note: all game odds courtesy of FanDuel):
