The Civil War and Apple Cup arrive in Week 3 of the college football season. I feel like I should ask you how your Thanksgiving went. Instead, I’ll just give you my picks, predictions, and thoughts for the week.

I went 7-4 against the spread in Week 2 and 10-1 straight up. Very respectable, but not as great as my opening-week performance. There’s a lot of emotion and some interesting variables involved in the matchups this week. I picked 10 games.

My 2024 season record vs. the spread: 19-7 (.731)

My 2024 straight-up record: 25-1 (.962)
