Thanks Tazman, here are my first picks for week 1-a.

Nebraska -35.5
Mich. State OVER 42.5
Texas A&M +15.5

Will the standings be ranked by won and loss versus the spread, or will it take the betting vigorish into consideration?

Mich State -3.5 and Under 42.5, USC -7, A&M +15.5, Broncos +1.5, Steelers -5 and OVER 36.5

Any PRIZE in this contest? Or, just good for knowing who has the hot hand from week to week and get the prize from one's own bookie?
