If you buy that any P2 team is alive at 10-2 and out at 9-3, this weekend saw a little movement:

The B1G saw three teams get eliminated and three more lost their margin for error
On the path (6): Ohio State, Indiana, Oregon, Southern Cal, Nebraska, Washington
No margin for error (6): Michigan*, Maryland*, Illinois*, Northwestern, Minnesota, Iowa
Out (6): Penn State*, Michigan State*, Rutgers*, UCLA, Wisconsin, Purdue

The SEC is still shaking itself out, but there are a lot of games between the top teams over the rest of the season
On the path (9): LSU, Georgia, Texas A&M, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Mississippi, Alabama, Missouri, Vanderbilt
No margin for error (2): Texas, Mississippi State
Out (5): South Carolina*, Auburn*, Florida, Arkansas, Kentucky

Over the rest of October, I suspect we'll see 4-6 teams per week slide down the scale, with a couple of teams eliminate each week.

The ACC and Big XII are a little more nebulous, but NC State, FSU, Kansas, and UCF all notched their third loss, while Arizona, Arizona State, Iowa State, and TCU all lost their second game. The ACC might end up a 2-bid conference, but its looking like the Big XII will need an upset in their championship game to get two teams in.
