It's gotta be Wisconsin losing to BYU. The other ones that popped into my head were MD losing to Temple by 3 TD's and Rutgers losing to Kansas by 40. Lol.

There have been quite a few upsets so far.

Wisky's loss is pretty bad, not just for them, but for the rest of the B1G as well. That doesn't help anybody.

Most G5 teams would get in over us now, we completely and utterly failed on the big stage....and seeing that nothing has changed under Harsin we will have one more turnover filled loss later in the year
I think teams like UCF and Boise will get the benefit of the doubt if they are among the 1 loss G5 teams in contention. they have the track record

Rutgers getting blown out by Kansas. I mean they probably went in thinking they finally had a shot

Yea, I don't know why people are saying this. Kansas is the bottom feeder of the big 12 and rutgers is the bottom feeder in the b1G........ its a wash......

IMHO, Nebraska paid Troy over $1 mil to play them, Troy comes in and beats Nebraska at home.........TROY! This is the upset of the weekend...... holy crap.

Anyone who thinks Wisconsin losing to BYU is worse than Nebraska losing to Troy is dumb. Regardless of rankings.

Troy is better than Nebraska I'm not sure it was even really an upset other than it was at Lincoln and all it means is that instead of going 3-8 or 2-9 Nebraska will instead go 2-9 or 1-10

interested to see how BYU fares the rest of the year. They were awful last year, but they are usually decent so that could have been an anomaly.

Troy won 11 games last year with a win over LSU. still not a team you want to lose to, though.

also, i think it would be pretty silly to disregard the rankings here. no one thought Nebraska would amount to much this year, while Wisconsin was ranked #4 by the media in the pre-season.

We do but we blew our big chance... doesn't matter anyway because we're going to lose one more

Top ranked G5 champ makes a bit bowl. doesnt make a difference if you are ranked high or 60th. as long as you are the higest ranking

There's a lot of G5 teams that will realistically do better than us this year, we're going to lose one more...I'm very sure there will be a 1 loss G5 team available... most likely from the American

The biggest loss just may have been Maryland's 35-14 home defeat at the hands of a Temple team that had already lost at home to FCS Villanova & MAC non-power Buffalo. That loss cast shade on Maryland and Texas (the latter of which was supposedly the second-best team in the Big 12 this year).

Maryland kicking our ass again. I don't see how this is debatable.
