Week 11 did not disappoint with upsets across the board, and some real head
scratchers for the true CFB pre season prognosticators. See Texas A&M losing to
Auburn. How were people this far off on Texas A&M? What is happening in College
Station, Texas?
Another big upset in the SEC was Vanderbilt going into Lexington and knocking off
the Wildcats! The win ends Vandy’s 26 game SEC losing streak. Conference play has
not been kind to them of late. Vandy needs to win out to become bowl eligible as
they host Florida next week and then host in state rival Tennessee to end their
season.
In the PAC-12 we had Washington, a team that has struggled mightily on the road
this year, go into Eugene, OR and pull off the best upset of the conference this year!
The Huskies are hot and riding a 4 game winning streak. Can they keep it up? They
host Colorado next week and then head to Washington State the following week.
Staying in the PAC-12 who had Arizona going into Pasadena and playing spoiler to
UCLA’s season? Arizona needs to win out in order to be bowl eligible. UCLA may
have been caught looking ahead as they host rival USC next week and then head to
CAL to wrap up their season.
UCONN is going bowling for the first time since 2015! They upset Liberty in a way
that might have Jim Mora back in the NFL! UCONN will wrap up their season next
week at ARMY but it’s still quite an accomplishment for a team only expected to win
3 games to start the season!
TCU continued their historic season by going into Austin, TX and knocking off
instate rival. They were a higher ranked underdog, which you don’t see too often
and they did not disappoint! Can they keep it going for an undefeated season? Next
week they travel to Baylor before hosting Iowa State to end the regular season.
What a story this has become! The national folks hate it because it’s not the normal
elite name they want to see in mid November that makes it even better for CFB!
Does anyone know what to make of the ACC? Sure there is Clemson in the Atlantic,
but UNC has come out of nowhere to rattle off six wins in a row to take command of
the Coastal Division! They had a massive win this weekend in Winston-Salem! They
end the season hosting Georgia Tech and NC State. This team might be Mack
Brown’s greatest coaching performance.
That’s all for this week!
