Results every college football weekend inspire intense positive and negative responses. Here are our five overreactions from Week 8.

No. 9 Miami: (5-1): Just when the Hurricanes seemed on a clear track for the CFP, an interception streak returned to haunt Carson Beck in a loss to Louisville. With one mulligan already used, Miami risks slipping late in the season, much like last year when two November losses ended its playoff hopes.

The Louisville defense picked off Miami star Carson Beck four times in the victory, with the frustrated signal-caller throwing his own teammate under the bus in his post-game press conference.

The verdict: Fiction. Honestly, Illinois’ resume isn’t far too different from that of Notre Dame, which is being widely viewed as a Playoff team. USC is the best win for each of them. And their losses are against top-10 teams — No. 1 Ohio State and No. 2 Indiana for the Illini, and No. 3 Texas A&M and No. 9 Miami for the Fighting Irish.
