"There are six undefeated teams left in the FBS: the Ohio State Buckeyes, Indiana Hoosiers, Texas A&M Aggies... and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, BYU Cougars and Navy Midshipmen. Three are not surprising, but the other three? That's the beauty of college football in the time of NIL and the transfer portal. For me, it's a reminder that winning isn't a popularity contest. So I'm here to put some respect on the undervalued undefeated teams, because, regardless of opponent, these programs are finishing the job."
"Let's start with BYU. The Cougars are 8-0, 6-2 ATS and 2-0 outright as underdogs. Led by quarterback Bear Bachmeier and running back LJ Martin, this offense can win in different ways. Two weeks ago, it was the run game that really hummed in a win over the Utah Utes. This past Saturday, it was the passing game that led the way against the Iowa State Cyclones."
Six FBS teams remain undefeated: Ohio State, Indiana, Texas A&M, Georgia Tech, BYU and Navy. Winning in the SEC or Big Ten draws attention because playoff models prioritize strength of schedule and conference prestige. Georgia Tech, BYU and Navy demonstrate that being a tough team can be separate from conference reputation. BYU is 8-0, 6-2 ATS and 2-0 outright as underdogs, with quarterback Bear Bachmeier and running back LJ Martin producing wins through both run and pass. Market betting lines have shifted dramatically, reflecting growing trust in BYU's performance.
