Depends on the definition of upset.

Unranked over ranked

Or

Lower ranked over higher ranked?

Note

*Miss State is currently favored over aTm using my point spread criteria.

But I feel like most , at least me, feel it would be an upset.

Picked Miss State because they are the best underdog relative to the team they are facing. Next would be Ole Miss, then Arizona in my mind. The rest are true underdogs

I had to include Oregon even though they opened a 25 point fav. To me that line is to damned high.

Bet down to 22 already.

I have Solomon in a fantasy league, so I'm hoping for 6 overtimes...or more realistically that Zona stays within 3 td's of Oregon, say 56-39...

Went with Utah based on the pac is crazy assed crazy rule.


...I don't see Zona hanging with the ducks at all this go around. I'd take Oregon to cover, and then some. But then again...:suds:

Gotta go with TCU.

It was West Virginia and Tennessee before that. OU is on perpetual upset alert.

LSU will pull of an upset this year and is likely to drop a game they are suppose to win like Arkansas. Auburn's rushing attack has not been as impressive as last year, but LSU can't stop a zone run to save their life. If Auby tries to attack LSU through the air I think the odds shift into LSU's favor a bit. This game reminds me a bit of 2008 when LSU went into Jordan Hare and won with a qb by the name of Jarrett Lee. Not saying LSU wins, but if Harris navigates this offense as smoothly as he has been doing so and Auburn tries to attack through the air, they have a punchers chance.

TCU, Texas, Miss State are the home teams.

Oklahoma's second road game in a row, and next up is traveling to Dallas. So, three road games in a row. Could be trap game.

Texas and Baylor. Baylor is 3-1 vs Texas over the last four years. Texas is 15-12 in Austin, Texas did win in Austin in 2012. Baylor wins.

A&M wins.

I will take TCU because Oklahoma will be too cocky and looking ahead to getting even with Texas for last year.

True that never really know with TCU. In fact, what does anyone really know about them this year? New offensive scheme, who knows what that will entail. Guess the only thing we know is that the defense will probably be pretty tough.

it may be a home game for da frogs, but there will be a lot of crimson in the crowd. Still will be a big test for OU, no doubt.
