UCLA’s jab at Penn State leads top Week 6 college football trolls

When you deliver one of the biggest upsets of the 2025 college football season, it’s only right to indulge in a postgame troll afterward.

UCLA delivered such an upset in Week 6, racing out to a 20-point halftime lead before outlasting No. 7 Penn State 42-37 at the Rose Bowl. Entering Saturday, the Bruins were still without a win in 2025, and were playing under the stewardship of interim head coach Tim Skipper following the September firing of DeShaun Foster.

Western Kentucky 27, Delaware 24

Western Kentucky moved to 5-1 on the season on the road against Delaware, riding a 17-point third quarter to a 27-24 victory. Delaware outgained Western Kentucky in total yardage 435 to 338, but the Hilltopper defense made the biggest play of the game when Koron Hayward returned a third-quarter interception 25 yards for a touchdown to give the visitors a lead over the Blue Hens that they wouldn’t relinquish.

After the win, Western Kentucky posted a distinctive caption themed around its opponent’s hen mascot.
