This is the Monday rewind regarding our picks, which we went over in last night's podcast (subscribe on iTunes or your favorite podcast app)!
7-on-7 Head-to-Head
In head to head, I stayed right at .500 on my picks in the biggest games of the weekend against the spread. That's the hardest thing about these games... we don't just pick games straight up. Chris and I are going against the number every single week. 28-28-2 isn't a bad number, especially in games that we don't necessarily want to be picking. That's why we have a different section for our gambling picks, vs the biggest games of the week. This week we both went 3-4, with some confusing games (how did Arkansas lose by 53 at Auburn?) that we talked about being scared of, but knew could go the wrong way.

| TOTAL | 28-28-2 | 21-35-2 |
College Football gambling picks
In College Football, both Chris and myself are rolling up. If you've been following these, your bankroll is definitely up. For example, if you'd have bet $100 on every pick that I've given, you'd be up $545. Not too shabby. Basically, look at the college football season like stocks - you may have a few losing weeks, but the season is a grind, and if you come out over 55% on your picks, then you're doin aight. Chris and I are both sitting at 58% (Gary: 22-16-2 / Chris: 18-13-1) right now, which is pretty good. Our goal for the season is 60%. We're definitely within range of that through 8 weeks.
| Gary | Chris | ||
| Texas (+3) @ Kansas St | 0-0-1 | Mich -36.5 over Illinois | 0-1 |
| E Mich (+23.50) @ W Mich | 1-0-1 | Wisconsin-3 over Iowa | 1-1 |
| Oregon @ Cal (-3) | 1-0-2 | UNC -8.5 over Virginia | 2-1 |
| UMass (+20.5) @ S Carolina | 2-0-2 | ||
| Colorado (+2.5) @ Stanford | 3-0-2 |
NFL gambling picks
The NFL continues to perplex both of us. Some of these games just made no sense. Looking back, I should have bet on the Pats since Landry Jones was starting for the Steelers, but I'm a Steelers guy so I couldn't pull the trigger. Let my heart come before my head. I thought the Rams and the Bills would look much better, even in games away from home - and both teams looked bad. Chris went 2-2, with his best pick being the Chargers over the Falcons. We're not doing that great on these (Gary: 5-10-2 / Chris: 9-13-2), but hopefully we will pick it up this week.
| Gary | Chris | ||
| NFL: Giants @ Rams (+3) | 0-1 | Browns +9.5 over Bengals | 0-1 |
| NFL: Bills (-3) @ Dolphins | 0-2 | Chargers +6.5 over Falcons | 1-1 |
| Pats -7.5 over Steelers | 2-1 | ||
| Vikings -2.5 over Eagles | 2-2 |
SEC Fantasy picks
Chris is on a hot streak right now... after I won 3 of the first 4 weeks, Chris has now won 4 straight weeks. Fournette absolutely saved him, because Crockett got me 4 TDs and 156yds rushing. Fournette was other-worldly in his comeback. And I almost took Derrius Guice because I wasn't sure how much they'd use Fournette. Turned out, he only need 16 rushes for 284 yds and 3 TDs. Jeez.
| Week 8 | Gary | 3-5 | Chris | 5-3 |
| QB | MO Drew Lock | 25.54 | Drew Lock MO | 25.54 |
| RB | MO Damarea Crockett | 39.9 | Leonard Fournette LSU | 48.9 |
| WR | AL ArDarius Stewart | 5.7 | J'Mon Moore MO | 7.4 |
| Defense/ST | South Carolina | 8 | Gamecocks | 8 |
| 79.14 | 89.84 |
