Group of eight (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

octet

octad

'group of eight' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for octad that I've seen before include "quarter-finalists, perhaps" , "Crew, perhaps" , "E.g. quarterfinalists" , "Group" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, the Sydney Morning Herald, the USA Today, The Times, the Newsday, The Daily Mail, The Mirror, The New York Times, the Universal, The Star Tribune, the Penny Press, The Telegraph and the Evening Standard.
