2014 BYU & Opponent Season Tracker (10/5)
Note all rankings during this part of the season are for the AP only. I may switch to committee rankings later in the year. Rankings are at time they were played so past games will not be updated with new rankings.
10 total teams are still undefeated, 4 of them will meet each other next week (see below):
#2 Auburn @ #3 Mississippi St
#9 TCU @ #5 Baylor
Here are some other interesting/risky matchups for top ranked teams or less than 1 loss teams (* currently undefeated teams):
#1 Florida St @ 2-3 Syracuse
#3 Ole Miss* @ #14 Texas A&M
2-3 N Carolina #6 ND
#7 Alabama @ 3-2 Arkansas
#8 Michigan St @ 3-3 Purdue
3-2 USC @ #10 Airzona*
#11 Oklahoma vs 2-3 Texas
#12 Oregon @ #18 UCLA
#13 Georgia @ #23 Missouri
#16 Oklahoma St @ 2-3 Kansas
#19 ECU @ 2-3 S Florida
4-1 Duke @ #22 GA Tech
2-4 Wash St @ #25 Stanford
BYE week for AP Top 25: #15 Ohio St, #17 Kansas St, #20 Arizona St, #21 Nebraska, #24 Utah
Other 1 or less loss teams playing that are not in top 25:
4-1 Washington @ 4-1 California
4-2 LSU @ 3-1 Florida
4-1 Louisville @ 3-2 Clemson
4-1 Penn St @ 2-4 Michigan
3-2 Indiana @ 4-1 Iowa
3-2 Northwestern @ 4-1 Minnesota
4-2 Middle Tennessee St @ 5-0 Marshall
4-1 BYU @ 2-2 UCF
3-3 C. Michigan @ 4-1 NIU
4-1 AF @ 3-2 Utah St
4-1 CSU @ 3-2 Nevada
3-2 UL Monroe @ 4-1 Kentucky
I'll try to keep the running total going forward and also highlight who drops out each week and possibly even note when 2 undefeated teams will meet, an idea I stole from mflood's post above
Also if you want to see a chart of future games of teams in the top 25 check out tarmstrong's post - hopefully he updates them going forward and I'll be able to locate them and include the direct link.
The following dropped from the ranks of undefeated this week...
2 - AAC (ECU 4-1, Temple 3-1)
4 - ACC (FSU 5-0, GA Tech 5-0, Louisville 5-1, Duke 4-1)
5 - B12 (Baylor 5-0, TCU 4-0, OU 4-1, OSU 4-1, KSU 4-1)
7 - B1G (NE 5-1, Rutgers 5-1, MSU 4-1, OSU 4-1, PSU 4-1, Iowa 4-1, MN 4-1)
1 - CUSA (Marshall 5-0)
2 - IND (ND 5-0, BYU 4-1)
1 - MAC (NIU 4-1)
2 - MWC (AF 4-1, CSU 4-1)
8 - PAC (Arizona 5-0, Oregon 4-1, OSU 4-1, ASU 4-1, UCLA 4-1, Wash 4-1, Utah 4-1, Cal 4-1)
9 - SEC (Auburn 5-0, Ole Miss 5-0, Miss St 5-0, Tx A&M 5-1, Alabama 4-1, MO 4-1, GA 4-1, KY 4-1, FL 3-1)
0 - SunBelt
41 - Total
Marshall is the team with a potential inside track on remaining undefeated as they no longer have any undefeated teams on their not so strong schedule.
ND (undefeated themselves) will face 1 more team that is currently undefeated in Florida St.
The ACC, B12, PAC & SEC could only possibly have 1 team total from their ranks remain undefeated through out the season and CCG. So 4 possible plus ND and Marshall means only 6 are even possible.
The B1G, American, MWC, MAC & SunBelt have no remaining undefeated teams at this time.
volleyjiver stumbled upon an ESPN article discussing something Barry Alvarez (CFP committee member) plans on looking at as he compares teams and detailed it in a post. I'll track how this progresses through out the season below for BYU.
