Week 8 college football betting odds, TV schedule: Syracuse-Clemson, UCLA-Oregon, more

The college football world received a big shakeup Saturday, and the rest of the season will have a different tenor because of it. That starts with Week 8.

The Pac-12 lost one unbeaten Southern California team when USC fell to Utah, but the other one, UCLA, is on the road at Oregon (-6) this week. In the ACC, someone will get tagged with their first loss when Syracuse visits Clemson (-13).

In the SEC, suddenly Alabama is not among the unbeaten teams. The remaining three are Georgia, Tennessee and Ole Miss. While the Bulldogs have the week off and the Volunteers step down a division to play UT-Martin, the Rebels have a stern challenge: They’re at LSU, which is a pick ’em for the contest at Caesars Sportsbook.

Elsewhere, could No. 2 Ohio State finally be challenged by defensive-minded Iowa? Not according to the point spread, which is a robust 29. And Texas (-4½) visits Oklahoma State with Kansas State at TCU (-4½) in games that will determine the top dogs in the Big 12 standings.

Here’s a complete schedule and list of the available Week 8 point spreads and over/under totals at Caesars Sportsbook:
