  • Hi Guest, we are working on updating the site servers and software. We're also 'forcing' everyone to read and agree to our site privacy policy and terms of service.

Well, it is that time of year again. I have been doing this for a few years now, and I will keep doing it as long as I still have some interest in he sport.

Baylol over barn
South Florida over Boise State - just knock them out early so I don't have to hear their name the rest of the year.
Nevada over penn state okay I don't believe this but a guy can dream. Come on Wolfpack, I believe in you.
UNC over TCU

Disclaimer: What qualifies as an upset is up to interpretation. I typically go by the favored team losing, but people go by rankings. it's up to you. There is no prizes, you just get to be right.

I'm going to call 2 upsets here and they aren't on Saturday

Miami over Notre Dame......ND by -2.5
North Carolina over TCU.....TCU by -3

Of note:
There's an ACC team opening in Corvallis, OR vs Oregon State. Normally that would be remarkable, but its California flying north, not an ACC team flying west.

Also of note:
Had a friend invite me to a couple of Auburn games this year because his son just started there this fall.

I asked him which ones.

He said Ball State and maybe Kentucky

I said, ok, I'll buy some Ball State and Kentucky apparel to wear. Or better yet, wear my Bama gear.

I was uninvited.

I like the Miami over Notre Dame pick. I think Carson Beck is better than some people realize because he used to be overrated
