Well here we go. Tomorrow is the first day of college football. I can't really give you an exact formula of how I determine which games are the best picks, but I am working on some numbers you can crunch to help narrow. Much of this is based on a relative power index, strength, opponent, player performance. Tread lightly these first few weeks.

0 - 0 - 0


Wisconsin -35
TCU -4.5
Ohio State -34
Western Michigan +13.5

I'm not sure if I should be worried or not. The fact that this site has the exact same picks, bothers me a little.

I have to admit this site has a ton of useful information.

Pretty cool, RealityCheck pointed it out to me. I figured I would try to apply similar filters that B2W did in MLB. Week one seemed to work OK, lets see where week to gets us.

Feel free, kinda working out system right now. I want to narrow my game selection to just 1 or 2 games per week. Looking for the best chance of getting a win.

Stanford looks good, but Arkansas as a 35pt favorite is right on the edge. Arkansas could easily score 35, but they will take mercy on NM. NM is awful and they are going to get pounded. I think the bigger question is......will they score at all? The under looks more promising.

The other game I really like is N. Illinois. Great speed should give them the edge in this game.

I am also looking at USC vs Utah. First big PAC 12 game for the Utes and they are going to get an eye opener. With some of the best recruitment in the west USC will make a statement and welcome the Utes with a bust to the chops.

Pass on Thursday game. I want to play something to much. Wait till Friday Missouri looking good. Don't play this game if the line drops below 7.
