It’s Week 9 in the 2022 college football season, and although there’s a pretty clear gap between the College Football Playoff frontrunners and everyone else at this point, there have been plenty of surprises this season. And that includes the number of undefeated teams left.
Compared with recent seasons, there are notably fewer undefeated teams remaining going into Week 9. This year, there are only six left with perfect records, down from nine teams ahead of Week 8. (Ole Miss, UCLA and Syracuse have since departed after we incorrectly predicted they’d win last week.)
