Week 8 College Football Power Rankings: Miami at No. 1 After BYU’s Surprise Loss to UCF

Analysts Cam Mellor and Oli Hodgkinson pointed to Miami's settled offensive line and stellar individual performances, specifically highlighting Malachi Toney and Darian Mensah, as the driving forces behind the Hurricanes ascending to the summit.
