Top 25 Predictions: How the AP Poll Could Look After Week 8
Just when you thought you had a handle on who was who and what was what, college football throws another curve ball. The Week 8 slate was an upset-filled doozy that saw nine AP Top 25 teams go down and left just six undefeated teams standing. Once again, upsets on Friday set the stage for more madness on Saturday. One of the more shocking outcomes in a weekend full of them was No. 2 Miami's loss to Louisville at home.

Caleb Williams Watch: Bears Rookie QB Breaks Another Record, Eyes Franchise First
Rookie records are falling seemingly every week Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams suits up. He threw for 304 yards and two more touchdowns on Sunday in a 36-10 win over the Carolina Panthers, the team that traded the pick the Bears used to select Williams first overall in April's NFL draft. That was Williams' second 300-yard passing game in five starts, which surpasses Chicago's previous rookie record of one such game and ties the franchise total of two in its 105-year history.
Caleb Williams Watch: No. 1 Pick Breaks One Bears Rookie Record, Throws First TDs
Caleb Williams set a Chicago Bears rookie franchise record on Sunday, throwing for more yards than he did in his first two starts combined. The No. 1 pick finished with 363 passing yards, which surpassed Mitchell Trubisky's previous high of 313. Williams now has the second-most passing yards in a single game this season behind Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott (379). It took Williams 52 passes to make history, a total that even he was surprised by.
Caleb Williams Watch: Bears Rookie Still Looking for First TD Pass
The support system the Chicago Bears assembled for rookie quarterback Caleb Williams collapsed under the lights last Sunday night in Houston. Williams was constantly under siege throughout the Bears' 19–13 loss to the Texans. He was sacked seven times and didn't get any relief from a running game that was held under four yards per carry for the second week in a row. Veteran wide receiver Keenan Allen, who led the team in targets in Williams' NFL debut, was also sidelined by a heel injury.

Depending on where you look, the Kansas City Chiefs are getting anywhere between 1.5 and 2.5 points Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. Feeling déjà vu? That's because we saw this matchup four years ago in Super Bowl LIV, a 31–20 Chiefs comeback win.
