Georgia State beating Tennessee a bigger upset than Appalachian State over TTUN?
Michigan was ranked 5th AND there was no precedent.  Tennessee is ranked 'dumpster fire' and FCS teams are upsetting people left and right each year.

No.  UGA 14-0.  Vandy with hostile crowd.
It's like a Rays game full of Yankees fans.

Lots of weirdness on defense. The two starting DTs (Dwumfour and Jeter) are out. Dwumfour has been out since the first series. Jeter we didn't know but that's been since before the game. Their replacements include Ben Mason. He's had some moments, but all this playing time for him is suboptimal.
Michigan needs its top two DTs by the UW game.

Still amazed Charbonnet got the start. Would like to see more snaps. That 14-yard carry was bouncy.

On defense, Ambry Thomas (he of recent ulcerative colitis, 20lb loss fame) and Josh Ross are really standing out in their attempts at replacing David Long and Devin Bush.

ok. no debate of the caliber of Tennessee versus M*ch.
But, Fox guys were stating the Georgia State was projected to be the worst team in their conference. 
So the "worst team in FBS" versus the National Champion in FCS?

Asher O'hara reminds me a lot of Tate Forcier. Making good decisions. Knows exactly how to handle pressure up the middle and around the sides.

Wild ending to the half in Wyoming-Mizzou.  Mizzou was on the 1 on the verge of tying the game right before halftime.  Kid gets hit going into the pile, ball pops out, Wyoming kid scoops it and is taking it back for a TD.  Kelly Bryant actually does a hell of a job of running him down and tackles him as the clock expires, but is called for a horse collar.  This allowed Wyoming to run an untimed play and they kicked a short FG to go into the half up 27-17.

Yes- I want to see more of him.  He has that “it” factor.  Looks like an elite back in the making.

Just look at the betting line - Tennessee was 'only' a 25-point favorite.  That's nothing, when it comes to biggest upsets ever.


The gap between 2019 Tennessee and 2007 Michigan is W I D E R than you realize.
