Upset Watch: Possible Week 12 Mid-Major and FCS Upsets
By Zach Bigalke
UTSA at Texas A&M (Saturday/12:00 pm)
The Roadrunners have already come close to pulling off an upset against one Power Five team this season, taking Arizona State to the wire in the Alamodome in mid-September but eventually falling 32-28. The reality, though, is that UTSA is a middle-of-the-road Conference USA team that allows just as many points as the offense can score. To beat Texas A&M in College Station would require a Herculean effort.
That said, the Aggies have been in a tailspin, losing three of their past four games after starting the season 6-0. The one win over the past month has come against New Mexico State. While UTSA is a better team across the board than NMSU, the possibility of an upset is remote. Dalton Sturm will have to have a career day to keep the contest close, and a blowout win for the SEC hosts is a far more likely outcome on Saturday.
