Week 3 2024: CFB analyst picks are graded; results are in!

Posted on by gamedaycole

Week 3 of our 2024 college football season is in the books, and the picks from our analysts are graded.

Tom Fornelli managed to go 17-0 on straight-up picks this week, with Shehan Jeyarajah coming in at 16-0. That is pretty impressive in my book regardless of the slate you’re picking. Congratulations to both on a great week.

Lee Corso went 9-3 on the week, including a correct headgear selection of LSU over South Carolina (by the closest of margins). Herbie went 9-2 on the week. Desmond and McAfee both went 7-5. Rookie of the year candidate Nick Saban went 9-3 to match Corso. Celebrity guest picker Dawn Staley went 9-3 on the week as well.

Everyone else is in the mix below so check out the results to see how your favorite (or most hated) personality did this week.
