#unbeaten-teams

Before this season tipped off, it would have seemed equally unlikely that this late-January edition of Power Rankings would feature Nebraska in the top five or Miami (Ohio) at all. And yet, that's where things stand after two of the three remaining unbeatens survived another week without a loss. Looking purely at efficiency-based metrics, which tend to be more predictive than résumé-based metrics, neither team fits the bill on paper.

Week 3 of the 2025 season basically smacked us in the face with them. Whether you considered Texas A&M-Notre Dame or Georgia-Tennessee the biggest game of the week, it didn't matter -- they both went down to the wire with quarterback heroics and special teams heartbreaks. And two of the sport's wildest rivalries, Pitt-West Virginia and Ole Miss-Arkansas, both gave us classics too.
