Saturday’s college football slate was filled with chaotic upsets as No. 1 Alabama narrowly escaped Texas, No. 8 Notre Dame fell to Marshall and Texas Tech held on through overtime to topple No. 25 Houston.
But the ranked-unranked upsets did not stop there. No. 6 Texas A&M also fell to Appalachian State, who was reportedly paid a $1.5 million guarantee for the game.

The Mountaineers entered the game at College Station as 18.
