Week 14 2012: Results are in!

Posted on December 3, 2012 by gamedaycole

Ladies and gentlemen, I am afraid we have come to a close for the regular season. It’ll be alright though, because that means it is bowl season. It is only Monday after week 14, but some of our experts are already throwing out bowl predictions on ESPN. These picks may change, and as always we will be officially tracking their latest picks, but its still exciting if you’re me. I’ll be tallying up the regular season results to post sometime this week so we can see where everyone stands. With that knowledge we will know who are contenders for the 2012 championship here at Cole’s Gameday Blog, and we will also be able to keep an eye on who will finish at the bottom of the barrel.

Anyways, week 14’s results are in. It was a light schedule, so it was a little lighter on picks than usual. This week’s big winner is Dari Nowkhah at 9-1, with other winning performances coming from Lee Corso (10-2), Desmond Howard (6-1), Pat Forde (14-4), and Mark May making a rare appearance at 5-1. Losers this week are Herbie (6-4), Lou Holtz (2-2), Christian Fauria (1-2) and Mark Schlabach (1-2). Special guest picker Matt Ryan went 6-4. Lee Corso also nailed his headgear pick going with Bama over Georgia. The rest you can see below, so look and see how your favorite/most hated personality did this week.

Week 13 2012: Results are in!

Posted on November 26, 2012 by gamedaycole

We’ve been tallying results and counting ballots and putting different colored beans into different containers to add up all of the results for this weekend; made only better by SHOWDOWN SATURDAY! There were a few really good performances from our experts, a few really bad ones, and most of them right in the middle. This week”s big winner would be Colin Cowherd at 10-2, with other winners being Pat Forde at 19-5, and Lee Corso at 9-2. Lee Corso got his headgear pick right, pushing his record to 20-0 all time when picking a game USC is involved in. Pretty impressive stuff for sure. Our big loser this week was Mark May at 1-3. Poor Mark. Not only are you doing very poorly this season with your picks, but you get to hear from Lou Holtz every day who happens to be on a huge roll himself. Other poor performances were David Pollack at 4-3 and Desmond Howard at 5-4. Our guest celebrity picker Landon Donovan went 5-5, as the guest overall record continues to slide. I remember when they used to get people on who knew something about football. Oh well.

Week 12 2012: Grades are posted!

Posted on November 19, 2012 by gamedaycole

My oh my, what a Saturday we had. Flashbacks to the great 2007 season of massive upsets coming out of nowhere. Did anybody predict both #1 and #2 would both go down within the span of an hour? No actually. Lou Holtz (3-2) is the only one who went out on a limb and picked Stanford over Oregon, which is strange because that was a much more likely upset than Baylor over KState. Did anybody actually think unranked Baylor could topple #1 KState? Yes. Todd McShay’s (3-2) upset special was Baylor over KState, and Desmond Howard (6-3) also went with the Golden Bears to pull the upset. This week’s guest picker Braden Pape also took Baylor to win, and posted a record of 6-5, so he might be better at singing that picking games. Still, maybe the best guest picker of the entire year. Lee Corso went 8-4, missing his headgear pick of Oregon obviously. Big winner this week were Kirk Herbstreit at 11-2 and Mike Bellotti at 7-2. I had to pull out the red pen quite a bit, and losers this week include Mark May (1-4), Colin Cowherd (2-4), and Robert Smith (4-7). Everyone else finished in between, so check below for the full report card and see how your favorite or most hated personality did.
