M+J's College Football Upset Watch/Picks- Week 15

 UPSET WATCH

Utah over Colorado
Colorado has had a surprisingly good season. Utah comes to town to try to spoil it. The Buffaloes need a win here and a USC loss to play for the PAC-12 championship.

Missouri over Georgia
This seems like a trap game for Georgia. Georgia has quietly bounced back, but a surging Missouri team may come up and bite them. The Bulldogs better not overlook this one.
Wisconsin over Iowa
Iowa has had a great season and has found themselves at#16. The Badgers have had a disappointing season primarily because of COVID, which has postponed or cancelled some of their games. Will the Badgers we expected to have show up today?

Georgia Southern over Appalachian State
The Eagles have been pretty good with only narrow defeats to good teams. App State has had pretty much the same season. Ga Southern is home, so will the home field help them pull this minor upset?

Mississippi State over Auburn
Auburn has had a disappointing season so far, and Mississippi State's offense has been inconsistent. The Bulldogs look like a force in their first game but have really struggled to score. Auburn has struggled on the road, so maybe the Bulldogs can find their air raid and win this one.

M+J's College Football Upset Watch/Picks- Week 14

UPSET WATCH

Michigan State over Ohio State
Ryan Day is out for the game. The Buckeyes have had Covid problems and can't afford anymore canceled games. The Spartans are coming off a huge win over Northwestern. Can they make it two weeks in a row?

Auburn over Texas A&M
The Aggies are quietly sitting at Number 5 hoping someone above them can lose. However, this game seems like a trap for them. The Tigers are coming off a blowout loss to the Crimson Tide and are ready to take out some anger.
TCU over Oklahoma State
The Horned Frogs get Oklahoma State at home. The Cowboys badly need this to stay in the Big 12 race. They have struggled the last three weeks with two close wins and a blowout loss to the Sooners. TCU has been playing better and a win here would make it 4 out of 5.

Kansas State over Texas
The Wildcats have really struggled lately but have had success at home against Texas in the past. The Longhorns need to win and hope both Oklahoma teams lose. K-State can pretty much eliminate Texas from the Big 12 championship with a win.

Hawaii over San Jose State
The Spartans are still 4-0! It's been a great turnaround for them and winning in Hawaii can propel them to be the favorite to win the Mountain West. The Rainbow Warriors upset Nevada last week at home and are ready to give the Spartans their first loss too.
