I know we're only 2 games in, but it is nice to see us in that category (for a change). Of course, so is NC St, so...

It's kind of like winning those 2 preseason NIT, CvC etc games, they give you in the Dome...before shlit gets real.

It's kind of like winning those 2 preseason NIT, CvC etc games, they give you in the Dome...before shlit gets real.

And like basketball, we are finally back to winning the ones we should

May as well keep this going. Even though a bunch of top teams had byes, eight teams dropped from the unbeaten ranks this week. Remaining undefeated teams - updated after 9/27 games:

P5 Conferences:
SEC - 5 teams (all in West Division): Alabama, Auburn, Texas A&M, Ole Miss, Miss. State;
PAC12 - 3 teams: Oregon, Arizona, UCLA;

Total of 17 teams left with a chance of running the table. There are several matchups of the remaining undefeated teams next week, as the conference games kick in. The SEC is guaranteed to lose either 2 or 3 unbeaten teams, while the PAC and B12 will each drop at least one of theirs and possibly two.

Could use a distraction from the big stories of the day. After last weekend's showdown games, seven teams dropped from the unbeaten ranks this week. Remaining undefeated teams - updated after 10/4 games:

P5 Conferences:
SEC - 3 teams (all in West Division): Auburn, Ole Miss, Miss. State;
ACC - 2 teams: Florida State, Georgia Tech;
B12 - 2 teams: Baylor, TCU;
PAC12 - 1 team: Arizona;
B1G - None left.

Non-P5 conferences:
AAC - None left;
CUSA - Marshall (no P5 opponents on their schedule this season);
MAC - None left;
MWC -None left;
Sun Belt - None left;
Independents - Notre Dame (all remaining games vs. P5, except Navy).

A total of ten teams are left with a chance of running the table. A few more look to drop out next week, as conference games continue. The SEC is guaranteed to lose at least 1 and maybe 2 unbeaten teams, as Auburn plays Miss. St. and Ole Miss faces an angry A&M squad. The PAC 12's last unbeaten has to worry about a letdown after their big win vs. Oregon when they host USC. Baylor and TCU also play each other this week, so the B12 will be down to a single unbeaten in next week's update. Directional Tennessee is surprisingly high scoring and might give Marshall a scare, formally eliminating the last Cinderella. Unless they get caught looking ahead to their matchup on Oct. 18th, Notre Dame and FSU look to roll their opponents, which could leave the ACC at the top of the heap if GaTech can handle Duke.
