The 2018 college football season has rolled into Week 11. Could this be the most upset-filled weekend of the season thus far?

Week 10 wasn’t without its upset bids or wacky happenings and now Week 11 has the upset Saturday vibe. A few of the major games of the weekend are a bit of a surprise as Washington State heading to Colorado wasn’t circled on anyone’s calendars back in July. Georgia versus Auburn was, but not it’s not even a battle of two top-25 programs after Auburn’s sloppy 2018 season. Yet both games have upset alert written all over them.

The Clemson Tigers are right where we expected them to be which is in the College Football Playoff hunt. Trevor Lawrence has looked great at times and bad at times but the Tigers are riding Travis Etienne to a 9-0 record. However, they head north to Boston College to face a tough out in the Eagles.

Alabama is the clear number one team in the nation. The Crimson Tide host their potential upset matchup in Mississippi State. The Bulldogs head football coach Joe Moorhead is known for game planning his way around great defenses as he did last year against Don Brown and Michigan in a blowout bid.

Here are the top four reasons to be excited about upsets in Week 11.
