Many college campuses were finishing up finals exams last week which limited the number of competitions on the NCAA D1 2025-26 seaason. 

Week 6 Rankings | Upsets: Week 6 | Week 5 | Week 4| Week 3 | Week 2 | Week 1

Despite the skimpy slate of duals, we still found over a dozen upsets based strictly on the rankings. All the usual caveats apply. Upsets based strictly on the rankings may not be considered upsets by the end of the year, or even by Tuesday.
