The best thing about college football is that it delivers every single Saturday. Week 4 saw big upsets in the form of James Madison over Appalachian State, Kansas State over Oklahoma, and a stunning Texas Tech win over Texas. As we turn the calendar onto October, the days get shorter, the air gets cooler, and most importantly, the competition ratchets up to another level.
When the competition heats up, that is where the longshots thrive. The Week 5 slate is no different. I'll highlight a few games where underdogs around a touchdown or more have a strong opportunity to win or cover easily (if the is too long). Here are the games that I'm eyeing in Week 5.
