Here are the top plays from the local college football teams from Week 8 of the 2023 season:

BYU WR Darius Lassiter Comes Up With Insane One-Handed Catch
“Greatest catch in BYU football history? Wide Receiver Darius Lassiter makes a claim after hauling in an Odell Beckham Jr.-style one-handed grab during the second quarter of action in a 27-14 win over Texas Tech. The catch was deemed the No. 3 play of the day on ESPN’s SportsCenter for October 21, 2023.” – BYU insider Mitch Harper
