M+ J's College Football Week 9 Upset Watch/Picks

UPSET WATCH

Houston over South Florida
South Florida struggled to stay unbeaten when lowly UConn came to town. A trip to Houston almost certainly feels like their first loss is coming.

Pittsburgh over Duke
Not much of an upset here, but Pitt has been trending slightly upward while the Fighting Coach K's have been falling. Maybe the Panthers defend their home field and take the W.

Old Dominion over Middle Tennessee
Old Dominion won an extremely odd fashion last week at Western Kentucky. Now, the Blue Raiders come to town. The Monarchs could ride this momentum into a 2 game winning streak.

Missouri over Kentucky
Kentucky has shown that they can struggle inferior opponents like last week when Vandy came in and took them to the wire. A road trip to a hungry Missouri team looking for their 1st SEC wins could be a trap for Kentucky.
Syracuse over NC State
Syracuse has shown to be better this season, so an upset here seems obvious.

Mississippi State over Texas A&M
Texas A&M is on the road here and they are not as good as the other ranked SEC teams. An upset should also be an obvious one.

San Jose State over UNLV
Can the Spartans get their first win? After taking San Diego State to the wire on the road, UNLV comes in without a MWC win. This might be the day, San Jose State wins a game.
