The first full weekend of college football is at hand, and that means it’s time for our panel of experts to offer our picks of weekly winners – risk of public humiliation notwithstanding.
Some of the Top 25 teams in the US LBM Coaches Poll will be feasting on cupcakes to kick off the season, so we’ll concentrate on the ranked squads competing against actual Bowl Subdivision competition. The slate features three pairings of top-10 combatants, and a few other high-profile clubs facing road challenges.
The highlight is No. 1 Texas traveling to No. 2 Ohio State in the first matchup of top-ranked teams in Week 1. The other big showdowns are No. 6 Clemson hosting No. 9 LSU and No. 5 Notre Dame visiting Miami.
Here’s how our experts think those games will go. Feel free to check back on a weekly basis to see how we’re doing.
