2012-13 Bowl Season: BCS BIG BOARD BONANZA!

Posted on January 7, 2013 by gamedaycole

The day has finally arrived folks. Tonight is a very bittersweet night for college football fans and insane gamblers alike, as we crown this year’s champion and put the sport to bed for 8 months. For this reason, we must make the most of it and savor every minute of today, which also means it is time for Cole’s BCS BIG BOARD BONANZA WITH PICKS AND OTHER THINGS!!! I will be updating all day long burning up the DVR to make sure I get you the updates on who is picking which team in tonight’s big game. I will be taking you right up to kickoff where we will *HOPEFULLY* get one more headgear pick from Coach Corso before college football hibernation. So make sure you check back throughout the day because who knows how things will develop.

With a current tally of 36 votes, our panel of experts is currently sitting at 24-12 in favor of Bama over Notre Dame in tonight’s game.

Week 9 2012: Friday Pick Bonanza!

Posted on October 26, 2012 by gamedaycole

Afternoon ladies and gents. We are continuing to get geared up for a big Saturday tomorrow, and that means more picks for Friday as everyone wants to get their opinion on the record. Updates will continue throughout the evening, so check back for Dr. Lou, Mayday and others later on.

*Update* Dr. Lou and Mark May did their picks tonight. For the record, the graphics displayed on ESPN said Lou picked Penn St over Ohio St, but he made it VERY clear he was going with Ohio State and that the graphics were wrong.

Week 14: Championship week results

Posted on December 4, 2011 by gamedaycole

Here’s the results from Week 14 of the 2011 season. Quite a few mediocre weeks with Southern Miss upsetting Houston and VaTech upsetting Clemson. Our winners this week were Jesse Palmer (4-1) and David Pollack going 7-1. David Pollack was the only person who picked Southern Miss over Houston, and he also nailed two tough ones in Baylor over Texas and Okla St over Oklahoma. Robert Smith is this week’s loser going 2-3. Robert, unfortunately you can’t just pick the favorite in every game and win. I’ll be posting our regular season overall records soon so everyone can see where we stand. But now we’re entering Bowl Season, where legends are made and dreams are shattered. Look forward to big slates of picks from all of our experts and check back often to see who is picking what games, and to see who you should be following.
