Bloguin College Pickem Week 2

Written by Ben Koo on 09 September 2010.

pickem

If you're new around here, we're trying to figure out who wears the pants among our college football bloggers. Last week we asked them to pick five of the most intresting games of the week and rank their confidence in those games 1-5. We also also wanted to see if they could guess if 3 very big favorites would cover a very large spread against a big underdog. All in all 21 points were on the line and below are the results after one week of picking.

As you can see out of the gate we have a lead pack out to a great start with a deep pack of sites right behind. Some sites had a rough week but its a long season and a couple good weeks will have them right in contention.

Moving on to this week, our bloggers still have until Saturday to get their picks in but with a trip on for myself here is a look at some of the early picks.

With the limited amount of picks in, I'll holdoff on the quantitative analysis for now but you can see that Ohio State and Oregon are both unanimous picks with Notre Dame vs. Michigan, Florida State vs. Oklahoma, and South Carolian vs. Georgia splitting the group to a certain degree.
