Week 3 2012: Early Week Picks

Posted on September 13, 2012 by gamedaycole

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: Early Week Picks

Posted on September 6, 2012 by gamedaycole

Sorry for the late update this week ladies and gents. Its been sort of a slow week as far as predictions go. Not a ton of people picking a ton of games so far. The early week slate of picks are below. There’s some real cupcake picks mixed in here, but picks are picks. Trevor Matich’s prediction strength of schedule is pretty laughable this week coming from the pollsters (i.e. me sitting here on the couch eating chicken nuggets). The most notable prediction not part of the official record is that of one Dr. Lou Holtz, who earlier this week predicted Notre Dame would post eleven wins this season. Last time he made this prediction, I believe they won six games. Check back tomorrow for updates as they roll in, and as always we will be here live all day Saturday.

Week 1 2012: Friday night picks

Posted on August 31, 2012 by gamedaycole

Well ladies and gents, the picks are rolling in as I continue to play catch-up on this Friday night. As I sit here sipping on a rum and coke, we have put together an updated spread of predictions for you below. You can see the early week picks HERE if you want to see what has already been picked this week. Of particular note is the fact that as of the end of our business day here on Friday night, the predictions for this week’s big game are in favor of Bama over Michigan at a staggering 15 to ZERO. Not one of our experts so far has picked Michigan to knock off the reigning champs. About the best you’ve heard this week if you’re rooting for the Wolverines is Todd McShay saying something non-committal like “Michigan has a chance to upset, just not much of a chance” on today’s podcast with Ivan Maisel. For anyone that cares what Bill Plaschke thinks, he also said Michigan has a chance to upset on Around the Horn this afternoon, but I couldn’t really tell if he was calling for the upset or just trolling the rest of the panel for picking Bama. Take it for what you will. We’ll be back first thing in the morning with the REAL picks from the Gameday crew, so until then enjoy your evening.
