Separation Saturday may have brought a bit more clarity to the college football playoff rankings this week, but brought little clarity to our season-long competition amongst our expert panel of predictors and prognosticators.

Big winners this week include Lee Corso (8-3), David Pollack (4-0), Booger McFarland (6-2, 1-0 ATS), Andrea Adelson (5-1), Chris Doering (5-1), Chris Fallica (16-7-1, 8-4-1 ATS), and Phil Steele (12-7, 6-3 ATS).  However, our biggest winners on the week were Colin Cowherd and Jason Sehorn who put up 7-1 records this week.  The tie will go to Colin Cowherd for picking Oklahoma State over TCU amongst his picks, and we value quality wins in this thing.  So let’s all take a minute to congratulate Colin Cowherd and his new 2015-16 season hairpiece.

Losers this week included Stanford Steve Coughlin (6-6, 3-3 ATS) who continues to struggle after a sensational 2014-15 season.  Trevor Matich (5-6, 1-2 ATS) continues to struggle with learning the fine intricacies of picking against the spread after living a full Mormon life without engaging in gambling.  However this week’s loss will go to Robert Smith at 4-6 on the week and 2-3 ATS.  He has put up some spectacular weeks and also some duds, and it seems that with him it is feast or famine.  Tough week Robert but I’m sure we will see you back on top soon.

Lee Corso went 8-3 on the week but lost his headgear pick of LSU over Alabama.  Special guest celebrity picker and self-professed fan of pears Rick Ross went 5-4 on the week.  Jennifer booked a winner at 7-4 on the week while Charley the Cat steals a game back from Corso picking Alabama.  Corso now sits at 3-7 on the year for headgear picks and Charley has taken a come-from-behind lead at 4-6 on the year.
