Stupid Upset Picks, Thanksgiving Week(Week 13)

PrintLadies and Gentlemen,
There was quite a bit of movement in the scoreboard this week, as DERP was in full effect, and lots of people took advantage of it. Aside from the K-State scoring, there were quite a few people who picked Virginia and won points. However, nobody correctly predicted Iowa State, meaning that everyone left some points on the board.
A reminder - there will be two picks for bowl season, one from the first half of the bowls(well, first 18, as there are 35), and one from the second half. In the unlikely event of a tiebreaker, the largest individual upset will take the title.
The scores, after last week, are as follows:
| Player | Score |
| Ardbeg | 53.5 |
| cdavis627 | 53 |
| ben_in_dc | 50.5 |

UTEP
Don’t hate the player, hate the Knights. They’ve given me 23 points on playing crappy. All I want is another 10.
Go Bulls!

Texas.
If it were a pick against the spread, Penn State would be obvious (they rarely allow 15 points, much less lose by that many), but I have a hard time seeing them going into Camp Randall and winning straight up.
I've got this terrible pain in all the diodes down my left-hand side.

I was as shocked as you were.
Although my Penn State against the spread pick … well, let’s just say that didn’t go so well.
