College Football's Undefeated Teams - Week 10

Chad Parsons
#1 - Ohio State. The Buckeyes remain at the top with their 20-point win at Penn State. Ohio State has only given up 10+ points 3 times this year (including the past two games) and 5 offensive TDs overall. The BCS loves OSU because they are an undefeated team from a big-time conference. Without losing, Ohio State will stay at the top of the rankings. Wisconsin and Illinois will visit Columbus the next two games, but going to Michigan is looming in the final week. How many times has Michigan and Ohio State messed up the other's season? Too many to count.

#2 - Boston College. The Golden Eagles faced disaster in Blacksburg, down 10-0 with the rain and a stout defense in front of them. Matt Ryan rebounded from an overall ugly game to lead two impressive TD drives for a clutch 14-10 win on the road against a good Virginia Tech defense. They are a feel-good story in college football, but have a tough road down the stretch. Florida State (beat Alabama) and Miami come to town (both 5-3 and tough to gauge week-in, week-out) and road games against Maryland (4-4) and Clemson (6-2). Good luck, Mr.Ryan.

#6 - Arizona State. The Sun Devils slayed one of their Pac-10 dragons last week in California. The gauntlet of their conference continue with #4 Oregon this week (premeire match-up Saturday night), UCLA (also beat Cal), USC (capable of beating anyone, any week), and Arizona (beat Washington, played USC tough). They've scored 32 TDs, while giving up only 11 scores on the season.

#8 - Kansas. The Jayhawks have beaten up on the weaker teams in the Big-12 (they don't play Oklahoma or Texas this year) so far, leading to an unblemished record. Nebraska, Oklahoma State and cellar-dweller Iowa State isn't the most difficult schedule the next three weeks. A showdown with Missouri (#9 in the country) is looming November 24th.

#12 - Hawaii. Still the undefeated team not getting the love - two 2-loss teams are ranked ahead of the Warriors (Georgia, Virginia Tech). The best thing Hawaii can do is win their games are force college football to make a change. Boise State and Washington are by far the toughest opponents on their schedule in the final two weeks. In the meantime, Hawaii plays Fresno State (5-3) and Nevada (scored 67 points against Boise State and lost). I root for Hawaii each week and say, keep throwing it Mr.Brennan and see where the chips fall.
