College Football Week 9
UPSET WATCH- Teams that could get upset
Oklahoma State over West Virginia
Oklahoma State has a controversial loss and without it would only have 1 loss. The Mountaineers come to town for a game that will be their most difficult of the season so far. This could be a trap for West Virginia.
Oregon over Arizona State
The Ducks are a win away from winning every game against the Sun Devils for an entire decade. Arizona State always struggles on the road, and Oregon is looking to win their first Pac-12 game. It feels like the Ducks dominance could continue here.
Iowa State over Kansas State
Iowa State almost beat Baylor when the Bears came to town. Kansas State is not as good as Baylor which is why an upset is possible here.
Texas over Baylor
Charlie Strong needs a big win. They came very close against Oklahoma and at Kansas State. An undefeated Baylor team goes to town that seems ripe for an upset. For a 3-4 team, Texas has shown pretty well, so something could give for them here. Will this be the game that helps put Charlie Strong and the Longhorns on track?
Georgia over Florida
Georgia has struggled lately but has played a much tougher schedule than the Gators. Florida has looked very lackluster at times this year just like last season and seems bound to be upset at some point. The Bulldogs are looking to get back on track, and this rivalry game could the one that does.
Notre Dame over Miami(FL)
Miami(FL) has lost 3 in a row and now travel to Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish defense has been much improved lately. This could be the Irish's chance to finally get another win. The Hurricanes are in the middle of a collapse and seem to be in free fall with no signs of stopping.
Florida State over Clemson
Clemson has had 2 close calls where luck was on their side. The Seminoles are out for revenge from last year's loss. They get the Tigers at home this year, which could be a major road block for Dabo's boys.
Wisconsin over Nebraska
The Badgers barely lost to Michigan and Ohio State and have looked like a Top 10 team all year. Nebraska has not played anyone this good yet, and they have to go to Madison too. This seems like an obvious pick.
Oklahoma State over West Virginia
Oklahoma State has a controversial loss and without it would only have 1 loss. The Mountaineers come to town for a game that will be their most difficult of the season so far. This could be a trap for West Virginia.

College Football Week 7
UPSET WATCH- Teams that could get upset
Georgia Southern over Georgia Tech
The Eagles almost pulled the upset a couple years ago. This Georgia Tech team is not the caliber of that one and has struggled. However, the Eagles have not shown to be as good either, but this game has been circled for 2 years.
Virginia over Pittsburgh
Virginia is consistently the most night and day team each season is starting to play better, so watch out Pittsburgh. The Cavaliers could have one those days where you wonder how this team lost to Richmond.
Arizona over USC
USC has looked great at home but now they return to the road where they go to Arizona. The same place Washington needed Overtime for a win. Therfore, this very well could be an upset.

Indiana over Nebraska
Nebraska is ranked in the Top 10 for beating Oregon, which could be the Pac-12's worst by 3 at home, and really nothing much to show. Indiana gave Ohio State a tough game last week. The Cornhuskers seem ripe for an upset here as they travel to Indiana for this one.
Wisconsin over Ohio State
Wisconsin already beat LSU and almost won at Michigan. The Badgers get Ohio State at their stadium, and they know this game is needed to keep playoff hopes alive. The Buckeyes struggled to put Indiana away, so a slip up could be possible here.

College Football Week 6
UPSET WATCH- Teams that could get upset
Mississippi State over Auburn
The Bulldogs are home and Auburn is finally making their road debut after struggling at home for their first 4 games. This makes this seem like a likely upset.
Texas over Oklahoma
Texas won last year, and Charlie Strong is taking defense into his own hands. Both teams have struggled some on defense. If Texas can defend, an upset is likely.
BYU over Michigan State
Michigan State has struggled lately especially on offense. BYU has played a gaunlet with having every game being decided by 3 or less points. The Cougars are bound to pull one out that wasn't expected.

Army over Duke
Army started strong before losing to Buffalo. With the exception of the Notre Dame win, Duke has been dismal. If the Army team from the first 3 games shows up, the Black Knights should win.
Penn State over Maryland
Penn State is at home against an undefeated Maryland team that hasn't played the greatest schedule. A stumble here feels like a strong possibility.
