Going into Week 8, the college football picture looks nothing like what many people probably assumed it would at this point in the season. Georgia is the clear team to be this year, Cincinnati is ranked No. 2 and looking good for the College Football Playoff, and teams like Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State and Notre Dame already have at least one loss and are nowhere to be found on our undefeated list.
In fact, there are only 11 remaining FBS teams that are undefeated at this point in the season, and the Big Ten, Big 12 and American Athletic Conference each have two undefeated teams in their conferences.
But Georgia is the SEC’s last undefeated team standing, and the same is true for Wake Forest and the ACC, Coastal Carolina and the Sun Belt Conference, San Diego State and the Mountain West Conference and UTSA and Conference USA.

Now, we can’t predict the future, as fun as that would be. But that’s not stopping us from attempting to educatedly guess which currently undefeated FBS teams will fall for the first time this weekend.
Here are our predictions for this week’s undefeated teams, based on their upcoming opponents, how they’ve played so far, ESPN’s Football Power Index projections and betting info from Tipico Sportsbook. (All games are on Saturday unless otherwise noted.)
