Not even close. SDSU wins by 28. The advanced metrics really like the Aztecs too (NET has them #2, TRank has them #4, Sagarin has them #5, but Pomeroy has them #17). Their two conference games with Utah St are the only time they will play a top 50 team the rest of the this year. There is decent chance they will go undefeated. They are also not going to play a single ranked team all season. Probably the best team they will beat is BYU or Iowa.

-Jason "selection committee is going to have a tough time figuring out how to seed them... even unbeated can they be high than #2 in the West given their schedule?" Evans

Duquesne falls to UAB 77-68 in the St. Pete Shootout. 3 undefeateds remain.

[68] Liberty 13-0. 12/21 vs. [98] Akron; 12/29 @ [42] LSU

LSU, which is having better results in football and basketball than Ohio State this weekend, hands Liberty its first loss, 74-57.

That leaves two undefeated teams, Auburn (12-0) and San Diego State (13-0)
