    Week 5 of the 2024 college football season has arrived, featuring several prominent matchups, including the No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs taking on the No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide on the road.

    However, a game starting at 10:00 p.m. ET has caught Lee Corso's attention before the start of ESPN's 'College GameDay.' In a video posted by Kirk Herbstreit on X, Corso mentioned that he believes the Washington State Cougars will cause a major upset by defeating the No. 25 Boise State Broncos. The Broncos are favored by about a touchdown in the game.

    "Washington State over Boise State," Corso said. "7.5 point underdogs. Boise State is ranked for the first time in seven years. But Washington State is a sneaky team. That's my upset."

    Boise State enters the game with a 2-1 record, with their only loss coming on the road against the then No. 7 Oregon Ducks by just three points. The team is led by Ashton Jeanty, one of the top running backs in the country. Jeanty has rushed for 586 yards on an average of 10.5 yards per carry and has scored nine touchdowns in just three games.

    However, Washington State is also performing well. The Cougars have a 4-0 record and have secured victories against the Washington Huskies and the Texas Tech Red Raiders. If they win this game, they could also find themselves ranked next week.

    Washington State will visit Boise State for a game on FS1 at 10:00 p.m. ET on Saturday.
