Washington State
California
Maximum number of Undefeated Teams at the End of the Regular Season:
10: BYU, Liberty/Coastal Carolina, Alabama, Notre Dame, Cincinnati, Marshall, and the champs of the Big Ten, PAC-12, Mountain West, and MAC
Percent of Undefeateds with 1st Loss:
Week 1: 6.5% (5 of 77)
Week 2: 18.1% (13 of 72)
Week 3: 13.6% (8 of 59)
Week 4: 33.33% (17 of 51)
Week 5: 35.3% (12 of 34)
Week 6: 22.7% (5 of 22)
Week 7: 7.5% (5 of 67) -Added 50 teams to list.
Week 8: 24.2% (15 of 62)
Week 9: 12.8% (6 of 47)
Week 10: 31.7% (13 of 41)
Week 11: 21.4% (6 of 28)
Week 11 Thoughts:
-Lot of cancellations led to slightly less interesting week. Most things held as they were. We did have undefeated Northwestern beat undefeated Purdue. That makes them most likely to beat Wisconsin in Big Ten West. We also had Miami come back and beat Virginia Tech. That leaves them in a position to make ACC chamionship if Clemson loses again.
Week 12 Thoughts:
-Ohio State @ Indiana: Winner is most likely going to Big Ten Championship (although Indiana does play Wisconsin still).
-Cincinnati @ UCF: Likely Bearcats biggest test of season. Start of 3 straight road games. Everyone outside American needs UC to lose. Win this, and they'll all but have American Championship spot locked down and keep a top ranking. Lose and UCF hopes of an American championship remain intact (although still need some help).
-Appalachian State @ Coastal Carolina: Likely toughest conference game left for Costal Carolina (they do play Liberty out of conference still too).
-Wisconsin @ Northwestern: Winner leads and most likely to go to Indianapolis.
-Liberty @ North Carolina State: Can they go 3 for 3 vs. ACC?
-Oklahoma @ Oklahoma State: The Cowboys join the pack in the middle or Oklahoma likely eliminated from Big 12 race.
Remaining Undefeated Teams: ACC: 1, American: 1, Big Ten: 4, Conference USA: 1, MAC: 4, Mountain West: 2, PAC-12: 5, SEC: 1, Sun Belt: 1, independents: 2, total: 22

You can knock Cal Berkeley out. I know you're not used to college football on Sunday. Neither am I.
