Week 2 2018: #CFB Picks are graded; results are in!

Posted on by gamedaycole

Welcome back everyone.  It was a great weekend of college football with some great predictions, great results, and some not so great results.  Let’s dive right in.

Winners this week include Paul Finebaum (5-1), Andrea Adelson (13-4), Heather Dinich (4-0), and Mark Schlabach (4-0).  However, we are going to officially crown dual winners this week.  Stanford Steve and Pat Forde both went 5-1 ATS, with Stanford Steve going 6-0 straight up and Pat Forde going 5-0 straight up.  Congratulations to both.

Losers this week include Mark May (4-5), Phil Steele (5-5 straight up, 4-5 ATS), Desmond Howard (7-6), and Lou Holtz (5-4).  However, this week’s undisputed loser was your boy SVP who bombed it with a 1-6 record ATS on his WINNERS segment this week.  Tough break this weekend, but he will dig himself out by season end.

Coach Corso had a tough week going 7-5 on the week, but enjoyed a headgear pick with Clemson edging out the Aggies Saturday night.  Special guest picker Owen Gray went 6-5 on the week.  @GamedayJen went 8-6 on the week.  So lots of experts ended up above .500 but it was a tough slate to pick this week.  Everyone else is somewhere in the middle so check out the full slate below to see how your favorite (or most hated) personality did this week.
