3. PENN STATE NITTANY LIONS (7-0, 4-0)
Scariest remaining opponent: Ohio State, Week 10
James Franklin is 1-9 against Ohio State. The Buckeyes enter this season’s matchup with one of the most talented rosters in college football.
2. GEORGIA BULLDOGS (6-1, 4-1)
Scariest remaining opponent: Tennessee, Week 12
Quarterback Carson Beck has regressed this season and thrown eight interceptions in his last four games. The Tennessee defense ranks No. 3 in total yards allowed, No. 1 in rushing yards allowed and has picked off three passes in its last two games. It could be tough sledding for Beck and the Georgia offense against the Vols.
1. OREGON DUCKS (8-0, 5-0)
Scariest remaining opponent: Michigan, Week 10
Week 12 opponent Wisconsin ranks higher than Michigan in the Big Ten power rankings, but Camp Randall Stadium isn’t quite The Big House. Oregon is a 15.5-point favorite over Michigan this week and should likely end the regular undefeated should it take down the Wolverines on the road.
