M+J's College Football Upset Watch/Picks- Week 13 Saturday Games

Friday supplied some exciting games and even one upset. Will today's games match the excitement?

SATURDAY UPSET WATCH

Maryland over Indiana

The Terps finally get to play again. When they last played, their offense was really clicking well. The Hooisers are coming off a close lose to Ohio State. Will the Terps offense continue their success?

East Carolina over SMU

The Pirates have been a tough out at times this season. Will this be their time to pull the upset? The Mustangs are trying to stay alive in the American and definitely need this one.

San Jose State over Boise State

The Spartans are 4-0! Its been a great turnaround for them and winning in Boise can propel them to be the favorite to win the Mountain West. The Broncos are at home and need this one to stay unbeaten in conference play.

Baylor over Kansas State

The Wildcats really struggled last week and got blown out in Ames. The Bears have been close at times this season but have only recorded 1 win. Will this be their 2nd win of the season?

Penn State over Michigan

Both teams have struggled this season. Penn State is trying to avoid a 0-6 start and the Wolverines are playing for their first winning streak of the season. This sentence is hard to believe but it's 2020 and anything can happen. Will Penn State win their 1st game?

M+J's College Football Upset Watch/Picks- Week 12

 UPSET WATCH

Northwestern over Wisconsin

A great bounce back season continues for Northwestern. Will it continue with an upset over Wisconsin? Wisconsin is playing in back to back weeks for the first time this season. Maybe, the lack of a gap this time will affect the Badgers.

UCF over Cincinnati

UCF is a home underdog against Top 10 Cincinnati. This is a game that Cincy needs to stay in the playoff hunt. Will the pressure get to them?

App State over Coastal Carolina

App State's lone loss is at #15 Marshall. Now, they travel to #15 Coastal Carolina. Coastal has had an incredible season this far. Can they continue this magical season or will App State take reign in the Sun Belt?

Utah over USC

USC barely squeaked out wins in their first two games. They travel to Utah which seems like a possible loss. USC will have to play better than last week's squeaker over Arizona. An upset seems likely here.

NC State over Liberty

Definitely don't want this upset to happen as Liberty has had an amazing season and want it to continue. Liberty is 2-0 at ACC teams so far and looking to make it 3-0. They have also been very fun to watch as well. The Wolfpack are home here and are pretty good, so an upset is possible here.

M+J's College Football Upset Alert/Picks- Week 11

UPSET WATCH

Tulsa over SMU

Tulsa's lone loss was a narrow defeat to Oklahoma State. Tulsa is home, so an upset here feels possible.

Boston College over Notre Dame

The Eagles almost upset Clemson the week before Notre Dame did, so this a potential trap game for the Irish. Will the Irish suffer a hangover from last week's win? Will the Eagles finish the upset this time?

Michigan State over Indiana

Not too many games to mention this week, so might as well mention this one. The Hoosiers have looked great so far. The Spartans have been hot and cold, so an upset is possible especially since this is new ground for Indiana. 

Purdue over Northwestern

A great bounce back season for Northwestern so far has them ranked. Since they were really bad last season, there is a feeling they are bound to fall flat in a game they should win. Maybe, it will be against Purdue. 

Michigan over Wisconsin

Wisconsin has not played in weeks, and Michigan is looking to bounce back. Will this be the one they do or will the Badgers continue where they left off?

M+J's College Football Upset Alert/Picks- Week 10

 UPSET WATCH

Kansas State over Oklahoma State

Both teams looking to bounce from upset losses last week. K-State is at home, so they could give them some kind of advantage to pull the upset here. Not sure if the Cowboys will lose a second straight though. 

Michigan over Indiana

It is a strange seeing Indiana ranked higher, so it is definitely worth mentioning. Will the nerves get to the Hoosier? Or will Michigan bounce back. 

Liberty over Virginia Tech

Liberty is ranked, but is a big road underdog at VT. Liberty is undefeated and trying to continue this special season. The Flames are for real, but can they beat the storied Virginia Tech program? This is the battle for Virginia. 

West Virginia over Texas

Texas scored a big win last week, so will they have a hangover this week? West Virginia comes off an upset win over Kansas State and is hoping to continue the momentum.

Notre Dame over Clemson

With Trevor Lawrence out this game for Clemson, it is hard not to mention this game. Clemson almost lost last week to Boston College, so The Irish definitely have a chance to shake things up. Clemson is still good without Lawrence. However, will they be good enough to beat Notre Dame?
