Week 3 2012: Early Week Picks

Here’s some early week picks for everyone’s viewing pleasure.  Its turned into a really slow week for picks.  With Notre Dame joining the ACC (except in the only thing that matters: football), everyone is sitting around giving their generic opinions on this move by the Fighting Irish instead of breaking down games and picking winners.  Here’s what we have so far, and I’ll update this post later if there’s more.

Week 2 2012: Results are up!

It was a great day for all Americans and fans of college football in the world yesterday.  Lots of picks rolled in, lots of exciting games for such a supposedly boring schedule, and a few upsets to shake things up.  The results for everyone are posted below, so check it out and see how your favorite or most hated personality did.  There were quite a few cupcake picks on the schedule with so much FBS vs FCS action, but picks are picks.  Trevor Matich had a great week at 6-1, but his strength of schedule was the worst by far.  Lee Corso went a solid 7-4 after struggling last week (even though he lost his headgear pick of TAMU over Florida).  Charlie Arbuckle has to by my favorite results of the week going 8-4 but with a pretty difficult slate of picks and not a single easy game.  Pat Forde has been on an absolute tear through two weeks and went 24-7 this week.  We welcome to the rankings Brian Griese (2-2) and Christian Fauria (4-2) as well.  As much as I don’t want to track Christian Fauria’s picks, it appears ESPN will not make him go away, so he’s here for good.  And the rest are below.
