CFB Forum Consensus - Week 1

I'm loving it.  I'll be watching my DAWGS parying they show some fight against LSU, my head says this is an easy one, but my heart says GO DAWGS.  GL to all.

Well that one leaves me speechless...

I assume the 8-2 was 8 cappers on Florida, 2 on OU..

Buster, if you read the first bowl thread, I changed it up a bit for the bowls because there were so few games spread out over three weeks compared to the regular season where you had 40 games a weekend.   From that thread:

Nos I hate to change up what worked last year....I will likely bet Minny, Troy and NC St myself  anyway....don't you sleep bro?

9:30am update...

Manifesto - great job last year and appreciate you doing this each week.

My only concern is that you are deviating a little too far with respect to the cappers you use. I have seen you willing to add cappers you are not familiar with and to be honest I think that is a recipe for disaster. If it ain't broke --- don't fix it!

Obviously, it's your show, but I'd hate to see a great thing go down the tubes for changing something that didn't need to, just so people don't feel left out.

he has already answered this question... why should he answer it twice when you can just spend 5 minutes looking through the thread and find the answer yourself?

i have to second Nos' sentiments to some extent... somewhat tragic that the Minnesota game becomes a no-consensus pick... but i guess that is the system in place, and you can't argue with past results...

Take it easy Ice....powerade going with the consensus was 33-10 starting in week 8 through the bowls...

Ice - I am going to play the Minny game regardless and also Troy...lets see how it goes with the one against games for a couple of weeks...if they seem to hit, we can change it up...

...look no disrespect intended, but, please tell me what UAB has proven...not once were they favored last year, this UAB team is ranked #91 which is way behind A$M...Im not the only one who likes A$M, so it's not stupid...Last year was last year, dont judge sherman on 1st year with a bad team...

...dont bash me for making an informative statement...Your Cappers are not gods and only a few of them are even respectable...

The UAB pick is more about Rice than UAB....decimated on the offense in terms of losing starters at ALL key skill positions...

As for A&M, I live in Houston so I know a little just a bit about the Ags.  I personally hope they have a great season - college football is just better in Texas when you have a real UT - A&M rivalry.   But as far as betting money, they are going to have to show me something first.   Two cappers on a game is OK, there are plenty of games that no one is on....
