The number of teams projected to go undefeated increases from 3 to 4 this week. Florida, after getting by LSU which was their toughest remaining game, now has a 77.1% chance of finishing the regular season undefeated. They are still well back of the 90+% chances that Alabama and Boise State have. Let's take a look at what each team has left.
Alabama's highest rated remaning opponent will be #16 LSU, but they will get them in Alabama and they get #25 Tennessee at home too. The toughest game will likely be at Auburn but as of now they'd be favored by 15 in that one.
Boise State's toughest game will be #65 Tulsa which is pretty much enough said.
Florida has a number of potential games to slip up in but will be heavily favored in them all. Those games include #22 Arkansas at home, #38 Florida State at home, #43 South Carolina on the road, and #55 Georgia.
Last, TCU has to travel to #29 BYU but gets #17 Utah at home.
Of the other 5 currently undefeateds, Cincinnati has the best shot at finished unblemished at 32% with Iowa and South Florida close behind at 14.2%. But one of Cincinnati/South Florida will emerge from their game this week with a win and that team may then be projected to finish undefeated. Texas is actually projected to have 2 losses and Kansas 3. If Texas can get past Oklahoma this weekend in convincing fashion, they will be past their toughest game and may improve enough in the ratings to be projected to be undefeated.
Format below is team, most likely record, chance of that record, chance of 1 game better, and chance of 1 game worse.
