Title: UPSET SPECIAL-COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAMES SATURDAY 09/29
Post by: Marshal Dillon on September 28, 2018, 05:13:22 PM
Seems we used to do a thread like this in past years so here goes. Who do you think can be beaten in an upset? I think there are a few possibilities.


Ole Miss/LSU-Still not sold on LSU or Oregon
Texas/K. State-State hasn't lost at home to Texas since 2002
Pitt/UCF-Defending National Chumps are due for an upset
Virginia Tech/Duke-Duke is #22, VT unranked-Not a bug upset if VT wins
Syracuse/Clemson-Clemson starting a true freshman QB with no real back-up QB since K. Bryant is gone

MY PICK:

PITT over UCF in Orlando


 :dunno:

I know I sound crazy, but if Barn isn't careful, S. Miss might sneak up on them, especially if Auburn changes their offense in this game.


 :duh:

Well I have 2 actually. I think first is OM over LSU. The LSU-dad will burn down utube next week.
Then I think Syracuse will be a lot closer than the experts think. RTR!

I think Florida could beat MS State.

But I'm going with Kentucky over USCe (which is favored).

Thanks for resurrecting this thread.

South Carolina is favored over Kentucky? Didn't know that. I think UF could beat Misses State, too. Interesting games.

The line is pretty much a pickem.  Kentucky was favored by a point when the line came out.  Now it has moved to where SC is favored by 1.5 points.

My new pick is Syracuse over Clemson. #+


Looks like ricky's new pick too.   ;)

I actually thought I picked Syracuse. I just noticed I didn't. I really got fooled on this game. I knew Cuse could easil;y upset Clemson I am not sure what I did wrong. RTR!

You kinda picked Cuse, "closer than the experts think."  Probably most of us thought that, certainly I picked Cuse in the pickem because the 23 point line seemed ridiculous.

Syracuse pulls off big choke job. In the 2nd half they played not to lose, then like most teams playing that way, they lost. Beat the spread, lost the game.

No big upsets this week.  Penn State came very close.  And so did Northwestern.  And Syracuse. 

Aggies only beat Arky by 7.  

Hokies beat Duke.  That's technically an "upset."

FSU wins a close one but doesn't cover.    :facepalm:

After beating the Hokies last week, Old Dominion lost to East Carolina.  I don't know if this was an upset.   

Tennessee State played Vandy close.  

Even Purdue beat Nebraska.
