And then there was one. Oregon is the last of the undefeated. Army falls to Notre Dame and Indiana can’t hang with Ohio State. A big shakeup in my rankings this week. The cannibalism of the SEC is in full force. My Hokies drop another one score game under Brent Pry. He’s 1-12 now in one score games.

I think there are three teams at the top now. Detroit, Buffalo, and Kansas City. Buffalo made a strong case that they are the best team in the AFC with their win over Kansas City on Sunday, but they still trail Kansas City by a game. Detroit is, by far, the cream of the crop in the NFC.

Top 5 offenses in my adjusted scoring rankings:

Bottom 5 offenses:

Another undefeated team falls. Kansas takes down BYU. Oregon, Indiana and Army remain undefeated. Indiana faces Ohio State this week and Army takes on Notre Dame.

Here’s my top 12:

1. Oregon
2. Ohio State
3. Indiana
4. Penn State
5. Texas
6. Alabama
7. Georgia
8. Notre Dame
9. Ole Miss
10. SMU
11. South Carolina
12. Tennessee

The four highest ranked conference champions would be Oregon, Texas, SMU, and BYU if the season ended today. Boise State is currently the highest ranked group of 5 school.

Baltimore and Pittsburgh are on notice now. They still haven’t cracked my top 5 in power ratings because of their loss to Cleveland a few weeks back. Cleveland is now my lowest ranked team. Kansas City and Detroit remain the top 2 teams in both the adjusted scoring and the power ratings. The Chargers now have the top defense in adjusted_scoring. With any sort of offense, they’ll be a threat in the postseason.

Down goes Miami. We are left with 4 undefeated teams in FBS. I bet nobody had Army, BYU and Indiana in that list.

Since everyone else has posted their projected playoff teams, I figured I list my top 12 teams after Week 11:

1. Oregon
2. Ohio State
3. Indiana
4. Penn State
5. Alabama
6. BYU
7. Texas
8. Notre Dame
9. Ole Miss
10. Georgia
11. SMU
12. Tennessee

The Big 10 would have the top 4 seeds. But to get the Group of 5 team in, Tennessee would be replaced with Boise State. Sorry Miami, you’re out now. SMU is in.

My top 5 teams in my power ratings remain the same. Baltimore is knocking on the door though. In my adjusted scoring rankings, Detroit holds down the #1 spot followed by Minnesota, Kansas City, Baltimore and Pittsburgh. Buffalo slides down a spot to #6.

Three schools fall from the ranks of the unbeatens. Penn State fell to Ohio State, Iowa State fell to Texas Tech and Pitt fell to SMU.

We are down to 5 undefeated FBS schools left after Week 10:

• Army #41
• BYU #4
• Indiana #3
• Miami #5
• Oregon #1

Who’s going to make the playoffs? I’m starting to see the big picture. I think both the Big 10 and SEC will get 4 teams each in the playoff. The ACC will have 1 team. The Big 12 will have 1 team. There will be 1 team from the Group of 5. And Notre Dame will probably be the other team in.

Two more schools fell from the ranks of the unbeaten in FBS. Liberty fell to Kennesaw State, their first win over an FBS school in their history. And Navy got introduced to a quality opponent and got smoked by Notre Dame.

We are down to 8 undefeated FBS schools left after Week 9:

• Army #41
• BYU #4
• Indiana #5
• Iowa St #6
• Miami #7
• Oregon #1
• Penn St #3
• Pittsburgh #16

Who will be the next to fall from the ranks of the undefeated?

Kansas City maintains its #1 ranking in my weekly power ratings. Followed by Minnesota, Detroit, Baltimore and Green Bay.
