Week 2 saw great action on the field this week, with a few cupcake games being a little too close for comfort, along with a few big games that lived up to expectations.  Results from our expert predictors and prognosticators were mostly so-so with a few standouts this week.

Big winners this week include Desmond Howard (10-2), Greg McElroy (5-1), Danny Kanell (4-1), Ryan McGee (4-1) and Phil Steele (14-3).

Our biggest winners on the week were David Pollack at 7-0 and Scott Van Pelt at 6-1.  SVP went 5-0 against the spread on his ‘Winners’ segment, so we tip our cap to him.

Our only loser of note this week has now started a 2 week losing streak.  He is none other than Mark May, who last week picked VT to beat Ohio State.  This week, Mark May and myself were the only two idiots who picked Oregon to beat Michigan State, but we give May the loss this week since this is my site.

Lee Corso went 6-5 on the week, including a loss on his Oregon headgear pick, which brings him to 1-1 on the year on headgear picks.  This week’s celebrity guest Draymond Green went 5-5 on the week.  Bear’s Bank went 2-1 on the week, bringing him back to .500 on the year at 3-3 ATS.  Jennifer’s picks went 6-3 on the week while Charley the cat went 0-1 on the week picking Oregon to upset Michigan State.
