Week 1 2016: College football picks are graded; results are up! #CFB #CFBPicks

Posted on by gamedaycole

Week 1 is in the books, and I think we can all safely say that “The greatest opening week of all time” not only delivered, but may have been underhyped.  We saw tremendous matchups, exciting finishes, and some surprising upsets.  That made predicting the outcomes a difficult task for some, so let’s dive right in.

Winners this week include David Pollack (7-2), Charles Arbuckle (5-3), Paul Finebaum (9-4), Pat Forde (24-8), Joey Galloway (5-2), Greg McElroy (5-2), Dari Nowkhah (7-2), and Tim Tebow (6-2).  We had a handful of really good weeks but I’m not sure how to sort it out due to vastly different slates of picks, so all of the following will be awarded a partial win this week.  Andrea Adelson went 11-2 on the ACC picks this week.  Marcus Spears went 8-2 on the SEC picks this week.  Phil Steele went 9-3 straight up on the week and 4-4 on a really tough week against the spread.  And of course a special gold star goes out to Scott Van Pelt who went 4-1 against the spread this weekend.

Losers this week include some pretty shameful performances from Stanford Steve (3-3 Straight up, 1-6 ATS), Colin Cowherd 3-6, newcomer Dusty Dvoracek (1-3 Straight up, 1-4 ATS), and Danny Kanell (2-5 Straight up, 2-4 ATS).  However, the official loss this week has to go to Chris “The Bear” Fallica, who got drilled going 1-5 straight up and 1-6 against the spread.  That is NOT a profitable week, so all of you gamblers can take it up with Fallica directly.

Lee Corso went with the LSU headgear pick and missed that one after Wisconsin took down the Bayeux Bengals.  There’s no shame in that pick, because Aaron Rodgers was the one and only person to predict a Wisconsin win.  Rodgers, the celebrity guest picker, went 8-2 on the week.  @GamedayJen went 9-3 on the week, so they both get a share of this week’s win.  @TheGamedayBaby made her debut this week going 0-1 on the LSU pick, but also went 1-0 against the spread betting on Texas.

Everyone else was somewhere in between, so check out the full slate of week 1 results below to see how your favorite (or most hated) personality did this week.

Week 4 2015: Picks are graded; results are in! #cfb #cfbpicks

Posted on by gamedaycole

The slate of week 4 games did not seem like the best schedule going into this week, but Saturday delivered plenty of excitement, close games and upsets.  Lots of trendy picks again this week, with plenty of our experts jumping on the Tennessee, Auburn, and Arizona bandwagons.  We saw lots of tough results this week in the predictions game, but had a few standout performances from some of our competitors.

Big winners this week included Tim Tebow (4-0), Paul Finebaum (4-1), Greg McElroy (4-1), Brett McMurphy (3-0 ATS), newcomer Chris Doering (4-1), and Brad Edwards (6-0-1, 2-0-1 ATS).  Our official winner this week was Chris ‘The Bear’ Fallica, who put up a 13-3-1 record this week, including a BEEFY 6-2-1 record against the spread.  He is printing money this year, so collect it while you can!

Losers this week were many in number, and included Desmond Howard (4-7), David Pollack (4-5), Dari Nowkhah (1-3), and Phil Steele (11, 4-7 ATS) .  Our official losers of the week will be Stanford Steve Coughlin, who went 3-7 (2-3 ATS) and Dr. Lou Holtz, who went 0-3.  I have to stop and mention Joe Tessitore, because it is always funny when someone like Tessitore always stays neutral while piloting a show like SEC Nation.  However, he went out of his way to let you know that he felt so strongly about Auburn winning this week that you should make note of it.  Well, we did, and Auburn didn’t, so we are having a little fun with that.

Other notes of interest:  Lee Corso went 6-6 on the week, and 0-1 on his headgear pick Arizona.  This week’s special celebrity guest Bob Baffert went a respectable 6-4 on the week, and our first ever special celebrity horse American Pharoah went 1-0 on the week.  Charley the Cat also went 1-0 on the week going with UCLA, and Jennifer went 10-4 on the week.  One highlight of note was Heather Dinich predicting Oregon to go down to Utah; the only soul who had the guts to pick that one.  On a final note, Pat Forde put up what may be the worst pick of the year so far this week.  He picked Old Dominion to beat App State, and unfortunately they went on to lose 56-0.  Oh well, better luck next time.
