The college football season is more than five weeks deep and we have seen some impressive performances and some abysmal games. As with every season, the top teams are sorting themselves out and are looking to avoid the upset every week. The Big 10 is looking to be the strongest conference. With the likes of Penn State, Wisconsin, Ohio State and Michigan hanging around, the battle in the Big 10 is a crucial one to watch.

2. Will Michigan avoid the upset against Sparty in primetime?

3. How will the Gators respond to the loss of Del Rio at QB?
