Undefeated After Week 9

Well, the Hoosiers nearly dropped Iowa, but thanks to some questionable calls, the luckiest 5-bounce interception ever, and an epic fourth-quarter implosion, the Hawkeyes escaped to remain undefeated. I punched a pumpkin Saturday afternoon.

Here is a breakdown of the undefeated teams and each team's remaining games (rankings are BCS rankings):

#1 Florida (8-0)
11/7 – Vanderbilt (2-7)
11/14 – at South Carolina (6-3)
11/21 – Florida International (2-6)
11/28 – Florida State (4-4)

Remaining opponents' combined record: 14-20 (.412)

#2 Texas (8-0)
11/7 – UCF (4-3)
11/14 – at Baylor (3-5)
11/21 – Kansas (5-3)
11/26 – at Texas A&M (5-3)

Remaining opponents' combined record: 17-14 (.548)

#3 Alabama (8-0)
11/7 – #9 LSU (7-1)
11/14 – at Mississippi State (4-5)
11/21 – Chattanooga (5-3) (FCS team)
11/27 – at Auburn (6-3)

Remaining opponents' combined record: 22-12 (.647)

(If Florida and Alabama both win out in the regular season, they will face each other in the SEC championship game.)
