M+J's College Football Week 3 Upset Watch/Picks

UPSET WATCH- WEEKEND GAMES

Temple over Maryland

The Terrapins have been impressive so far with 2 blowout wins including one over Syracuse. Why would Maryland be on upset watch? Well, last season, the Terps started 2-0 including a win over Texas before getting blown out at home vs Temple. Maryland always seems to great wins and strange losses, so one would think an upset is possible here. Though, the Terps have looked good so far.

Eastern Michigan over Illinois

Eastern Michigan played Kentucky tough before falling out. Illinois hasn't looked too impressive yet after a squeaker over UConn. An upset seems like a possibility here.

New Hampshire over Florida International

FIU has looked like one of the worst FBS teams so far this season after loosing to Western Kentucky who already lost to Central Arkansas. New Hampshire is traditionally a stronger FCS team. This seems like a great possibility for an FCS over FBS upset.

Kentucky over Florida

Kentucky finally ended their losing streak against Florida last season and are hoping to make this a winning streak. Florida looked sloppy in their opening win over Miami. Kentucky has beat 2 of the stronger MAC teams so far and has been somewhat impressive. At least impressive enough to put Florida on upset watch as they head to Lexington to take on the Cats.

Colorado State over Arkansas

The Rams beat the Razorbacks last year and look to do the same this year. The Razorbacks did not look well at all last week against Ole Miss and are on upset alert today. If the Rams can limit turnovers, they will have a chance to win in Fayetteville.

Weber State over Nevada

Nevada started strong with a win over Purdue before losing to Oregon 77-6. Weber State's only loss was 6-0 against 2-0 San Diego State. Weber is a stronger FCS team that shouldn't be slept on. This should be an even match with a potential for an FCS over FBS
