One under-the-radar game for Weeks 8-14 of the college football season

We've already looked at one under-the-radar game for the first eight weeks of the college football season, so here is one more game for each remaining week of the season.

Oct. 18 | No. 23 Texas Tech at No. 11 Arizona State: Another Top 25 matchup that will likely be overlooked due to a stacked slate of SEC games. 

The two teams met last season, and Texas Tech gave Arizona State one of its three losses. ASU head coach Kenny Dillingham will certainly have his squad ready for a bit of redemption.

Oct. 25 | Georgia Southern at Arkansas State: These two teams are predicted to finish in the top three of their divisions in the Sun Belt conference.

Georgia Southern handed Arkansas State a 59-33 loss the last time the teams met in 2021. The loser of this game will almost certainly be eliminated from Sun Belt championship game contention.

Nov. 1 | No. 10 Miami at No. 16 SMU: This potential Top 20 showdown in Week 10 will almost certainly take a backseat to the presumed Top Five showdown between Ohio State and Penn State.

Miami has never traveled to SMU for a game, and in an interesting schedule twist, this will be the Hurricanes' first game of the season outside of the state of Florida.

Nov. 8 | UNLV at Colorado State: In its first season under head coach Dan Mullen, UNLV received four votes to win the Mountain West championship.

This game will come three weeks (including a bye) after the Rebels meet up with Boise State. For Colorado State, it is projected to finish fourth in the MWC, and it will be the first game against any team predicted to finish ahead of it in the MWC standings.

Nov. 14 | No. 4 Clemson at Louisville: Louisville nearly knocked Clemson out of a CFP berth last season with a shocking victory on the road at Death Valley.

Louisville could very well be in a position to knock off the Tigers to further its resume, so everyone knows Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney will have his team looking for revenge.

Nov. 22 | Liberty at Louisiana Tech: A week full of tune-up games prior to rivalry week for Top 25 teams puts the Conference USA at the forefront of games.

Liberty is the overwhelming favorites to win the conference, but Louisiana Tech is not far behind, as it is predicted to finish fourth. With a good first 12 weeks of the season for each side, this could very well determine the winner of the regular-season championship.

Nov. 28 | Vanderbilt at No. 24 Tennessee: We tried not to include any team twice on the list, but this game is just too enticing not to.

Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia made his feelings about UT known in Netflix's "Any Given Saturday" documentary, so grab the popcorn and buckle up before this one because emotions will be at an all-time high.

With conference championship games culminating the following week, there are no under-the-radar games to pick out.

The games selected on both lists are just a handful of amazing college football games throughout the season, and this year very well could be the best and most chaotic in the history of the sport.
