Wash State over Oregon Cal over Utah Michigan over Notre Dame Arkansas over Alabama (j/k) Auburn over LSU Kansas State over Oklahoma Wisconsin over Ohio State
I kinda like Michigan over Notre Dame ... the pressure is off Harbaugh now (no playoff hopes) ... he can settle into the spoiler role

comment on them. I think Wisconsin could upset OSU. They have a solid defense and a running game that could keep OSU on the sidelines if their OL gets going. The loss to Illinois could either fire them up even more or they could be deflated as a result.
I think Notre Dame, Bama, LSU and OU win without too much trouble.

Michigan is favored over Notre Dame per Vegas. Line opened at Michigan -4.
So I guess the upset would be if ND won, not Michigan.

The only one I really care to see Michigan defeating Notre Dame. I would say Arkansas over Bama but we know that isn't going to happen. To top it off I would really like to see LSU win the West for a change of pace.

I like Auburn over LSU, Auburn has a defense that will put pressure on the QB, something LSU hasn’t seen this season. LSU defense is average at best and Auburn will be able to score, I think auburn wins 38-35.

Auburn is a whole lot better than people think. Same deal

with them as you said about Harbaugh. They play alot better with 1 or 2 losses.
Auburn and Georgia have the best Defenses in the SEC. They will give LSU everything they can handle

anyone that reads Tigernet knows that Florida is the most overrated team in all of CFB history. They have no offense, their QB sucks, their defense hasn't played anyone and is vastly overrated, and they are fortunate not to be .500 right now. It's a joke they are even ranked at all.

Someone highly ranked will lose on that list.
I'd bet on Washington State or Oregon.
Auburn and LSU will be interesting. I think Auburn can slow them, but I question Auburn's ability to score enough points to win.
Kansas State v OU....OU typically buggers one up no one expects. This smells like a possibility.

IMO, Auburn and Wisconsin are the 2 teams with the best chance of getting an upset win. Although, I don't think either will succeed. Though I would like to see Wisconsin be the one.

Arkansas +35 is interesting

I think that one mostly hinges on whether or not Arkansas can stop the run at all because Bama is likely gonna go back to old Bama football to take the pressure off Mac Jones. I would expect to see a heavy dose of the running game with some play action shots mixed in. I don't think Jones is anywhere near precise and decisive enough to hit the slants and crosses over the middle that Tua makes his living on. Bama passing game will likely be reduced to deep balls off PA and some easy throws to their play making WRs in space.

Don't follow PAC12 since USC (the real one) stopped being relevant. I don't see any potential for upsets in the games you mentioned outside of Wisconsin/O310 State. And I don't see Captain Khaki pants beating ND. No.

Washington St could beat Oregon. Oregon with Herbert is a bit more pass happy. A running team really hurts Wazzou. If the Cougars QB can have a good game; and Oregon doesn't mash it down the Cougars throat - they have a good shot. LSU will have to play much better defense against Auburn. Auburn will be their best pre-bama look - LSU had better be ready to play physical at the line. Auburn has some studs on the DL. The secondary is suspect though; so that may be neutralized.
No way Michigan beats Notre Dame. Not enough offense.
