Will three, four or more unbeatens cause college football chaos?

Eight teams remain undefeated, and raging BCS debates look imminent.

The same concern from fans and media arises each college football season around late October, and that is the potential for an unbeaten team to be left out of the BCS Championship Game. In most seasons, everything works out fine and all of the debate and consternation is for nothing. There have been exceptions, however, like Auburn in 2004.

Meanwhile at Clemson, five-star freshman Sammy Watkins is lighting up opponents.
