Podcast: Georgia-Texas fallout and predictions for loaded Week 9 schedule

Saturday night’s showdown between Georgia and Texas had major fallout. From a controversial officiating decision that benefited the Longhorns to Texas getting a rude welcome to their new league and the Bulldogs establishing themselves as the class of SEC, there were some major story lines coming out of Week 8.

Things weren’t great for Alabama over the weekend with a loss to Tennessee revealing more concerns about the Kalen DeBoer era and whether this is a playoff-caliber squad. The defeat also raises questions about how many teams the SEC can put into the 12-team field with several contenders on shaky ground.

Looking ahead to Week 9, the Crimson Tide get another test from Missouri. But that’s not the only major matchup. LSU pays a visit to Texas A&M, Notre Dame gets a tricky test from Navy and Oregon hosts Illinois. Who wins these showdowns?

Dan Wolken and Paul Myerberg of USA TODAY Sports discuss these topics and more in this week’s version of the College Football Fix.
