"Trailing Ole Miss after halftime, Georgia quarterback Gunner Stockton delivered in a big moment once again in the Bulldogs' come-from-behind win over the fifth-ranked Rebels Saturday. "He's wired for these tight moments because he's tough," Georgia coach Kirby Smart said afterward of the Bulldogs' quarterback. "His team believes in him." Nearly 60% of the way through the 2025 college football regular season, we're learning more about the nation's top programs with each passing week."
"Week 8 featured statement wins in the SEC from Alabama, Georgia and Vanderbilt and gut-check defeats for CFP favorites Miami, Ole Miss and Texas Tech. Quarterbacks Diego Pavia (Vanderbilt) and Fernando Mendoza ( Indiana) padded their Heisman Trophy résumés, while Carson Beck's candidacy suffered a blow in Miami's defeat to Louisville. At Notre Dame, we saw just how dangerous the Fighting Irish can be when, you know, they simply hand the ball off to Jeremiyah Love."
Gunner Stockton's late-game performance propelled Georgia to a come-from-behind victory over Ole Miss, demonstrating his poise in tight moments. SEC power dynamics shifted as Alabama, Georgia and Vanderbilt recorded statement wins while Miami, Ole Miss and Texas Tech suffered gut-check defeats. Diego Pavia and Fernando Mendoza strengthened their Heisman résumés, and Carson Beck's prospects declined after Miami's loss to Louisville. Notre Dame showed effectiveness by leaning on running back Jeremiyah Love. Texas A&M reached 7-0 for the first time since 1994 as Marcel Reed delivered multiple big-play contributions against Arkansas.
