Chaos Theory: Week 9

Two undefeateds went down last week, but four teams are on a bye this week.

Ohio State, Baylor, LSU, Michigan State are on a bye, so they officially survived the first two months.

Starting this week, I am adding in the Group of 5 undefeated teams, because they are proving to have some staying power.

West Virginia over TCU
NC State over Clemson

Maryland over Iowa

Texas Tech over Oklahoma State
Notre Dame over Temple
Vanderbilt over Houston
Tulane over Memphis
NIU over Toledo

12 teams right now, how many will make it to November?

Since there can only be one undefeated team in each conference at the end of the season, we know that 2 B1G teams, 2 Big 12 teams, and 2 American teams will all be knocked off the list by December.  At most, we'll have six teams at the end of the season.
