Week 12, 2010 Updated

Posted on November 21, 2010 by gamedaycole

Well it was an average schedule this week but turned out to have alot of really competitive games and lots of near upsets. I was able to track a good amount of picks this week, but with one regret. I’ve found Trevor Matich doesn’t pick alot of games on College Football Live, but he does picks every Saturday on College Gameday radio. This week I tuned in for a while, went to the bathroom, came back to the radio and heard “… and those are the picks for today! We’ll be back after this!” What a bummer because I really need to beef up his sample size.

It was a pretty good weekend for all our experts because mostly all the favorites won. I’ve graded the picks below. In a real shakeup, after all the updated archival picks and this week, Desmond Howard has overtaken BOTH Lee Corso and Kirk Herbstreit as the official College Gameday leader.

In other exciting news, we’ve had more hits on the site this month than ever before, and today is our all time high for a day! Don’t ask how many, just pretend its big.

Here’s the total grading for the 10/25/2008 episode of College Gameday featuring Lebron (and one extra Kirk Herbstreit vote from Week 10 2010 thrown in). Herby had a great week only missing one, and calling the MichSt upset of Michigan back when Michigan was still slightly relevant. Lee Corso had an average week. Lebron shot 50%.

Week 11, 2010 Results

Posted on November 14, 2010 by gamedaycole

Here’s the slate from Week 11, 2010. Individual pages and overall standings are being updated. We’re welcoming Skip Bayless to the group and would like to give a big shoutout to Rick at the Reverse Bayless gambling system blog. You can find him at http://reversebaylessgambling.blogspot.com/. He is a true American hero as he fades Skip Bayless’ predictions each week and backs them up with his own hard cash.

As for this week, Desmond Howard finally had a monster week only picking one game wrong. Skip also had a pretty good week picking straight up (although Rick is still profiting nicely betting against the spread fading Skip). Corso and Herbstreit had solid weeks, and Derek Poundstone had an average week. Here’s the actual breakdown:
