Alabama losing to Vanderbilt wasn't the only big upset in Week 6 of this college football season.

Arkansas stunned high ranking Tennessee and Syracuse beat UNLV in the final seconds of their late game.

Then there was that come-from-behind win by Miami against California that kept us up.  Sure the Hurricanes ended up winning but they just narrowly avoided the upset.

Let's look at ESPN's expert picks for teams they think will be winning the College Football Playoff.  Yeah, sure, lots of Texas picks.  We're pretty certain last week these experts were all over Alabama to win it all.

The important thing for bettors is the futures odds, which will change with the new AP rankings each week.
