Tag: 2012

It was a pretty exciting Saturday yesterday in the world of college football.  Several big upsets, with #2 USC going down to Stanford, Virginia Tech going down against Pitt, and Notre Dame upsetting Michigan State.  Pretty much nobody gave Notre Dame a shot to win except the Notre Dame homers like Lou Holtz and Mike Golic, but they pulled it off nonetheless.  Those two games hurt a lot of our experts this week, so some of their prediction records took a hit, but that’s the whole reason we play the games out on the field.  Well, we play the games for that reason as well as things like determining a national champion.  Our big winners this week were Kirk Herbstreit going 9-3, David Pollack going 7-2.  Our weekly champion has to be Pat Forde, who continues his Secretariat-like-run going 26-5 this week.  Our big losers this week were Jason Sehorn, Robert Smith, and Colin Cowherd who all went 4-5.  Kenny Chesney also went 4-5, which brings his lifetime record to 11-8 on College Gameday.  Review the results below to see how your most beloved/hated personality did this week!
