Week 3 2018: #CFB Picks are graded; results are in!
Welcome back ladies and gentlemen. Week 3 had some really exciting games with some good upsets, and it made for an interesting week for all of our expert pickers and prognosticators. Let’s dive right in.
Winners this week included Paul Finebaum (5-1), Bruce Feldman’s straight up picks (9-2), Lou Holtz (7-2), and Andrea Adelson (9-3). Our official win this week goes to Rufus Peabody, with a sharp 5-0 week against the spread this week. Congratulations to Rufus Peabody in whichever foreign port he resides in this week.
Losers this week include Kirk Herbstreit (7-6) and Mark May (6-5), but our big loss this week goes to Phil Steele (3-6 straight up, 1-7 ATS). Sorry Phil, but that’s a tough week by any standards.
Coach Corso had a nice win going 8-3 on the week, and he nailed his headgear pick of Ohio State over TCU. Special guest celebrity Roman Reigns went a very meh 6-4 on the week. Bear’s Bank went 1-2 on the week (Fallica was 3-3 overall ATS). @GamedayJen went 10-5 and pulled out a win after a rough start in the early games.
