At the collegiate level, sports are constantly turning over. Sometimes, that is for the best, and sometimes, for these eight schools, that is for the worst.
These eight have 32 claimed national championships among them, and four have appeared in the national championship game since 2001 -- two winning national titles. Two teams have reached the College Football Playoff in its first two seasons.
But through eight games, many of the coaches at these schools are fighting for their jobs, and all eight are struggling to reach the six-win plateau. The NCAA Division I FBS considers six-win teams "bowl eligible." With 80 bowl spots and 128 teams, there is a chance a few five-win teams will be called upon to fill bowl spots. Teams are then selected based on Academic Progress Rate (APR).
