 Power Rankings
Call me crazy or call me stupid (cus I'm probably both), but I felt I'd try something a bit different this week and something for my own amusement. I'm going to attempt to pick a winner of each and every side on the card. I'm going to put them in order of how much I like each and everyone of them and see how my thoughts change throughout the week.
The number before the team is the listing it is on the card for easy reference. If a pick changes sides throughout the course of a week I will underline it (for example if I change my pick from Wisconsin -6 to Northwestern +6 I will underline it). I will also list picks that have changed categories closer to a play in blue and those that drop down in my estimation in red. Obviously in a first list there would not be any of these circumstances.
There is a total of 52 games this week... During a given week I tend to play 20-30 games, but 12 or so of those plays are the same game just taking the halftime and full game plays. For the time being I tried to break them into five categories with about 10 games in each category. If the games were today, the plays would be for $75-$200, leans would be $50-$75, and some good guesses might be played for $50. Plays are listed from my favorite to the games I don't have a clue about (meaning I don't know either team or the game is just to hard to tell) being at the end. Submitted Plays - Amount of play in blue.
