Who Needs A Blogpoll Week 8: Bye Week Edition

It's Week Eight, and Alabama is finally on a bye after a brutal October that saw the Tide play then-Top 10 UGA and A&M on the road, a physical homecoming game against an improving Arkansas team, and capping the month off versus a very talented and rested arch-nemesis Volunteers' squad. Say what you will about Butch Jones' Xs and Os, but the Vols have brought in at least as much talent as their competitors in the East, and, despite some errors in this one, UT had a great game plan, particularly on defense. Jalen Hurd and Alvin Kamara are a legit fearsome duo.
