Tracking undefeated FBS college football teams in the 2024 season

How the 12-team College Football Playoff works

As the 2024 college football season continues into November, we're tracking all the teams that are still in contention for a perfect season.

As we play Week 10, only seven FBS teams remain undefeated. The Big Ten leads the way with two unbeaten teams, followed by the Big 12, ACC and with two and the American with one. The SEC lost its final undefeated team after Georgia took down Texas in Week 8. 

The ranking lists teams in the latest AP Top 25 poll.

WEEK 8 RECAP:  Georgia takes down Texas, Tennessee beats Alabama and more

No. 1 Oregon 

Record: 9-0 (6-0 Big Ten)
Last game: Defeated Michigan, 38-17
Last undefeated season: 1916 (7-0-1, won Rose Bowl)

The Ducks continued their dominant season with a win over Michigan at the big house. Dillon Gabriel continued his impressive season with a 22-for-34 day and 294 yards passing. As a team, Oregon collected 470 total yards and held the Wolverines offense to just 270 total yards. Oregon looks to continue their undefeated season vs. Maryland as they return to Autzen next Saturday night. 

CFP EXPANSION: How the new 12-team College Football Playoff works

No. 5 Miami (Fla.)

Record: 9-0 (5-0 ACC)
Last game: Defeated Duke, 53-31
Last undefeated season: 2001 (12-0, won BCS National Championship Game)

The Canes overcame a sluggish first half against Duke to cruise to its ninth win on the season. Cam Ward put up 400 more passing yards and five touchdowns. Up next, Miami will travel to Atlanta to take on Georgia Tech on Nov. 9.

No. 9 BYU

Record: 8-0 (5-0 Big 12)
Last game: Defeated UCF, 37-24
Last undefeated season: 1984 (13-0, won national championship)

After a rough first season in the Big 12, the Cougars have already surpassed their conference win total from 2023. They have two ranked wins under their belt in Kansas State and SMU, and Kalani Sitake's squad squeezed out a thriller against Oklahoma State in Week 8. The Cougars defended their perfect record at UCF for a Week 9 win. BYU will hit the road again to play at Utah on Nov. 9.

No. 13 Indiana

Record: 9-0 (6-0 Big Ten)
Last game: Defeated Michigan State, 47-10
Last undefeated season: 1945 (9-0-1)

Indiana received a big lift when it was announced that starting quarterback Kurtis Rouke would return for the Hoosiers. IU's offense exploded for 47 points in their win at Michigan State. Indiana looks to stay unbeaten as they host Michigan next weekend in Bloomington. 

No. 18 Pittsburgh

Record: 7-0 (3-0 ACC)
Last game: Defeated Syracuse, 41-13
Last undefeated season: 1976 (12-0, won national championship)

The Panthers are coming off a disappointing 3-9 season in 2023, but transfer redshirt freshman Eli Holstein has lit a fire in this Pitt team. He's thrown for 1,808 yards and 17 touchdowns in seven games, securing close wins against Cincinnati, West Virginia and California in Week 7. Pitt will travel to SMU on Nov. 2.

STRIKE A POSE: The top three finishers in the Heisman Trophy voting each year

No. 21 Army

Record: 8-0 (6-0 American)
Last game: Defeated Air Force, 20-3
Last undefeated season: 1958 (8-0-1)

Army holds the longest win streak in FBS football at 12. Based on its first eight games, Army should be cruising until Nov. 23 against Notre Dame. The Irish have proven beatable, and if the Black Knights can pull it off, we could be discussing Army in the 12-team playoff come late November.
