Is it still an upset if the home team is technically the betting favorite?
Regardless of how you stand there, the UCLA Bruins were getting some love from the pickers at ESPN’s College Gameday on Saturday morning, being picked to upset the No. 10 Oregon Ducks by everyone on the crew.
Lee Corso, who has had a loving relationship with Oregon’s mascot Puddles over the years, picked the Bruins, saying that it was “strictly business” and he still loved the Duck.

We will see if the guesses can come true, or if the Ducks will start to turn around their season and put a better product on the field to kick off the second half of the year.
Kickoff is at 12:30 p.m. PT on ABC.
