Sometimes it’s not the game, but it’s the game after the game that undoes a college football team.
The Week 10 slate featured blockbuster matchups across the country, but that could mean the Week 11 schedule is primed for a spate of upsets. That’s what our panel of pigskin prognosticators must ponder this week.
Starting at the top of the US LBM Coaches Poll, No. 1 Georgia returns home to take on Missouri. No. 2 Utah, fresh off a huge rivalry win, must hit the road to face No. 21 Arizona. No. 3 Notre Dame just picked up its biggest win of the season, but will the Fighting Irish fall victim to the dreaded letdown at home against Boston College, a program that has historically been a season spoiler for them? No. 4 UCLA kicks off the weekend early with a Friday night home date with Illinois.
