I'm smelling an upset Saturday. Either I'm going to be horribly wrong with my picks this week or I'm going to look like a genius. The majority of these upsets however will be happening in unranked teams.

Reminder that the game is listed under the home team's conference.

Transitive property does not work well in college football. It doesn't matter who beat them. And like I said, either I'm going to look real bad or look like a genius with these picks.
