Here are the teams that are projected to have undefeated seasons by at least one of my power ratings this year. Also listed are teams that just missed the cut with one or more of sets calling for an 11-1 season........

Phil is usually better than most of the prognosticators, but I would wager the house that FSU won't be 12-0!

Not sure how he arrived at that . It looks totally worthless as information or predictions or whatever.

Not sour grapes but totally worthless.

Thanks for the link. Phil Steele usually has some basis. His "sets"? Uh no. :deadhorse:

Phil Steele is normally very good and more accurate than most. I don't know anything about the criteria used in these "sets" but this information looks worthless. In what "set" can Tenn go 11-1?  :dunno: They are several other schools on the list that don't belong.

UNC, FSU, & Louisville 12-0 and Tennessee 11-1. Are you kidding me? This guy is on dope or is a dope.

He seems to strictly use stats in his work, while they usually tell you quite a bit they are never 100% or even 80% with regard to college football.
