All 3 have week 9 off, so their chances of staying undefeated are pretty good.

I see a lot of upsets this week. Houston and Oklahoma St are the only ones that make it through.

Houston will lose… but not to Rice. They stay alive for at least one more week.

Kansas St. will lose to Oklahoma… and then to Oklahoma St, Texas A&M, and Texas. That fancy record is all but gone. And a second tier bowl looms.

Oklahoma St. will win. And will continue to win for the foreseeable future.

Clemson will get a scare, but they will win. And Georgia Tech’s slide extends to 3 games.

Stanford will lose to a dangerous looking USC.
