15 undefeated FBS college football teams remain as we near the midpoint of the 2025 season. How soon will that number fall to zero? Here\u2019s a look at when each team could fall from the unbeaten ranks this season.<\/p>\n
No. 1 Ohio State \u2014 Week 14 at Michigan<\/p>\n
Ohio State has some quality opponents left on its schedule, starting with a road trip to No. 17 Illinois. Yet, the Buckeyes haven\u2019t lost the Illibuck trophy since 2007, so that\u2019s not when I\u2019ll predict them to lose.<\/p>\n
Ohio State also plays Penn State, but that game is at home. The Nittany Lions just fell to unranked UCLA, and PSU hasn\u2019t beaten the Buckeyes since 2016. Ohio State should win that game.<\/p>\n
Ohio State\u2019s first loss could come against Michigan. The Wolverines are currently ranked in the top 15, and the game is on the road. Michigan has beaten the Buckeyes in the last four games, and head coach Ryan Day is 1-4 against the Wolverines.<\/p>\n
NO L’S:\u00a0Tracking undefeated FBS college football teams in the 2025 season<\/a><\/p>\n No. 2 Miami (FL) \u2014 Week 14 at Pittsburgh<\/p>\n Miami is a puzzling team to predict when it will lose. Last year, few would\u2019ve predicted that the Hurricanes would lose to Georgia Tech and Syracuse. Will the Hurricanes avoid the same fate this year?<\/p>\n A matchup against Louisville and the top total defense in the ACC stands out, but when realizing Miami will be coming off a bye week, it loses its upset potential. Miami should also be wary of a road trip to SMU, but I\u2019m not too sure the Mustangs have what it takes against an elite Hurricane defense.<\/p>\n Then there\u2019s the season\u2019s closing game against Pittsburgh. Pitt has the second-most sacks in the ACC and allows the third-fewest rushing yards per game in the entire FBS. A defense like that, plus Miami having to make a road trip to frigid Pittsburgh after Thanksgiving, means the Hurricanes should be on upset alert.<\/p>\n No. 3 Oregon \u2014 Week 13 vs. Southern California<\/p>\n Oregon looks like a College Football Playoff contender again this year, but that doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019ll go undefeated. Beyond a home contest against Indiana in Week 7, the Ducks should be worried about when USC comes to town in November.<\/p>\n The Trojans have the No. 2 total offense and No. 3 scoring offense in the FBS. Quarterback Jayden Maiava has the fifth-most passing yards in the country and an 11-to-1 touchdown-to-interception ratio. USC could make this game a shootout in Eugene.<\/p>\n HEISMAN WATCH:\u00a0Top 10 Heisman Trophy contenders going into October<\/a><\/p>\n No. 4 Ole Miss \u2014 Week 8 at Georgia<\/p>\n Ole Miss plays a tough road schedule in October with trips to Athens, Georgia, and Norman, Oklahoma. Since the trip to Athens to face Georgia is first, that’s when Ole Miss could potentially lose its first game.<\/p>\n Not only will the Rebels head into a difficult environment, but they\u2019ll be facing a Georgia offense that averages 206.8 rushing yards per game. Meanwhile, Ole Miss has the second-worst run defense in the SEC at 163.8 rushing yards allowed per game.<\/p>\n Ole Miss will be on upset alert in a potential top-10 battle.<\/p>\n No. 5 Texas A&M \u2014 Week 11 at Missouri<\/p>\n Texas A&M has the fourth-worst scoring defense in the SEC. Missouri has the second-best scoring offense in the SEC.<\/p>\n Texas A&M allowed running backs Jeremiyah Love and Jadarian Price to combine for 136 rushing yards and three touchdowns. Missouri running back Ahmad Hardy leads the nation in rushing yards and touchdowns.<\/p>\n Texas A&M also plays Missouri on the road. The Tigers could hand the Aggies a loss here, and Ahmad Hardy could have his Heisman moment.<\/p>\n No. 6 Oklahoma \u2014 Week 7 vs. Texas<\/p>\n I know Texas dropped out of the latest AP Poll ahead of the Red River Rivalry, but the Longhorns were ranked in the top 10 just a week ago. Oklahoma will face Texas in a Week 7 contest, most likely without quarterback John Mateer, a Heisman contender before his injury.<\/p>\n While backup quarterback Michael Hawkins Jr. is a great option to have filling in, he only had a QBR of 64.3 against Kent State \u2014 the lowest of any Power Four starter against the Golden Flashes this year.<\/p>\n With the pressures of a big rivalry up next after a good but not great performance, Oklahoma could fall to the Longhorns.<\/p>\n CAUGHT OFF GUARD:\u00a06 September surprises after the first 4 weeks of the 2025 college football season<\/a><\/p>\n No. 7 Indiana \u2014 Week 7 at Oregon<\/p>\n Indiana just played its first road game of the season and only beat an Iowa team with the Big Ten\u2019s worst passing offense by five points. Now the Hoosiers head to play No. 3 Oregon, which has a Heisman frontrunner in Dante Moore at quarterback.<\/p>\n Moore has thrown for seven touchdowns in his last two games. Indiana could be in trouble.<\/p>\n No. 9 Texas Tech \u2014 Week 8 at Arizona State<\/p>\n Texas Tech is undefeated, but a big-time road trip to Arizona State is looming in two weeks. The Sun Devils could be ranked in the top 20 by the time they play. Arizona State hasn\u2019t lost at home since 2023. This one has all of the makings of an upset.<\/p>\n No. 13 Georgia Tech \u2014 Week 14 vs. Georgia<\/p>\n Georgia and Georgia Tech will meet in Mercedes-Benz Stadium this year to close the season. While the home of the Falcons is within walking distance from Georgia Tech\u2019s campus, the Benz has often turned games into borderline home contests for the Georgia Bulldogs.<\/p>\n Neutral site aside, Georgia Tech could be facing a Georgia team fighting for its playoff lives when Week 14 arrives. If a win in Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate is all that separates the Bulldogs from the College Football Playoff, Georgia Tech might have to wait another year to end its rivalry drought that dates back to 2016.<\/p>\n No. 14 Missouri \u2014 Week 7 vs. Alabama<\/p>\n Missouri is undefeated, but now Alabama comes to town. It\u2019s a Tide team that is rolling right now, winners of four straight games since an embarrassing loss to Florida State to open the season. Alabama has also won back-to-back ranked games over Georgia and Vanderbilt.<\/p>\n Missouri, on the other hand, has zero ranked wins and the worst strength of schedule in the SEC at 109th in the country. Missouri hasn\u2019t been battle-tested. Alabama has. That\u2019s why the Tigers could fall in Week 7.<\/p>\n TURNING IT AROUND:\u00a0What 7 college football teams need to do to bounce back from disappointing starts<\/a><\/p>\n No. 18 BYU \u2014 Week 8 vs. Utah<\/p>\n BYU has won the last two Holy War games, but before that, Utah won nine straight in the rivalry. Last year\u2019s edition of the rivalry needed a game-winning field goal from BYU to beat Utah by one point. In rivalries like this, anything can happen, so it wouldn\u2019t be surprising if BYU suffered its first loss against Utah.<\/p>\n No. 23 Memphis \u2014 Week 9 vs. South Florida<\/p>\n Memphis has the 127th strength of schedule in the country. South Florida has the 26th-best strength of schedule.<\/p>\n The only team Memphis has beaten with a winning record this year has been Troy from the Sun Belt. South Florida has beaten two then-ranked teams.<\/p>\n While Memphis is the home team, South Florida has proven its ability to beat ranked foes already, meaning the Tigers could be the underdogs at home.<\/p>\n Navy \u2014 Week 11 at Notre Dame<\/p>\n Navy was undefeated and ranked No. 24 last year when it hosted Notre Dame. The Midshipmen lost 51-14, a 37-point margin. By the time Week 11 rolls around, Navy could be in a similar situation, ranked and facing a Notre Dame team with its back against the wall.<\/p>\n The only difference is that this time the Midshipmen won\u2019t have home-field advantage. We could see d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu here.<\/p>\n North Texas \u2014 Week 7 vs. South Florida<\/p>\n Like Memphis, North Texas hasn\u2019t been as battle-tested as South Florida. In fact, North Texas has a worse strength of schedule than Memphis at just 132nd in the country. That\u2019s the fifth-worst in the FBS.<\/p>\n North Texas has also allowed four rushing touchdowns to quarterbacks this season. That might not bode well for the Mean Green as they face South Florida quarterback Byrum Brown, who leads the Bulls in rushing yards and has three rushing touchdowns of his own.<\/p>\n \ud83d\uddd3\ufe0f SCHEDULE:\u00a0Weekly FBS TV schedule and times<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0College Football Playoff schedule<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Bowl schedule<\/a><\/p>\n UNLV (5-0) \u2014 Week 8 at Boise State<\/p>\n UNLV is undefeated after five games under head coach Dan Mullen. However, all that could change when the Rebels make a road trip to Boise State. While Boise State is 3-2 on the season, the losses are to South Florida and Notre Dame, two teams both ranked in the latest AP Poll.<\/p>\n This is the same Boise State team that was predicted to win the Mountain West in the preseason after all. UNLV\u2019s toughest test will come in Week 8.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"15 undefeated FBS college football teams remain as we near the midpoint of the 2025 season.
