Week 1 2019: #CFB Picks w/ Stanford Steve and the Bear Chris Fallica!

Stanford Steve and the Bear put out their week 1 podcast with means all your favorite gambling coverage for this week.  Stanford Steve’s Wake Forest/Utah State over 59.5 was in the Big Mike Happy Recap at the end of the podcast, but I’m not sure if it was official because he kind of threw it on there at the last second.  I will grade his picks against his ESPN Chalk column for official records as always.

Also, the Bear gave out Nevada+10.5 on Daily Wager earlier this week, so that pick cannot be found in the podcast.

Week 0 2019: CFB picks are graded; results are in!

We only had two FBS games this week, and Gameday picked two FCS games to go along with it, so picks are very few but I’m here to grade them anyways.  I guess Corso wins it with a 3-1 record this week, and special guest celebrity picker Michael Irvin lost the week at 1-3.  He also predicted Miami will make the CFB Playoff so let’s all remember that in January.
