Any Saturday Upset Picks? I think #14 Texas loses at unranked Ole Miss, and I think #2 USC nearly stumbles on the road against #21 Stanford but wins a close game.

My ultra long shot?? #8 South Carolina will be shocked by unranked UAB. UAB will never be confused for a powerhouse, but SC is vastly overrated and this smells like it could conjure an uninspired effort.

Hard to say ULM over Auburn would be a huge upset. No way Troy can beat MSU.

I actually think Ole Miss might beat Texas. North Carolina over Louisville. Northern Iowa over Iowa.

I could see UNC beating Louisville, but that game is a toss-up to me. I wouldn't really consider it a big upset.

I'm just going by spreads. I agree, Louisville is vastly overrated and UNC, despite turmoil and a crappy loss to Wake, is undervalued.

Outside of Bama, you could see any SEC team lose on any given weekend. So overrated. Georgia sucks, South Carolina is trash, no clue how Florida is ranked

Well, they need 41 unanswered, as it is 21-0 Pitt.

Did Pitt finally figure out the football season started or is VT just crapping the bed?

VT is one team, along with a few others who are overrated in the preseason every year. They lost to James Madison 2 years ago.

Even with VT being overrated (I agree the traditionally are), Pitt has bee TERRIBLE so far this year. I mean they got pounded by YSU at home.

Pittsburgh is a joke. But I'm glad they are making Beamer unhappy

Other than VT, no big shocks so far.
TCU is struggling with Kansas though.

Going to break a record for wins in a row vs. non conference teams during the regular season. Lost only 3 games in the last 3 seasons combined, while beating a bunch of ranked teams. Yeah, I see where you're going with your argument. Your team is looking pretty good vs a bottom feeding PAC12 team today.
