2017 College Football: Let the Sorting Process Begin

Week 3 is when we start to figure out what teams really are. We start to see 3 games from many teams, and for most 2 games against FBS competition. We'll have a better idea in a couple of weeks, but this is the start of the whittling down process towards the championship.

Week 2 was a good week, but not great, especially with a 1-6 record on games where my spread was between 3 and 7. Still looking pretty good to start off the year with every category except the aforementioned 3+ to 7 above 60%.

Vegas kicked my ass this week. On games that matter (FBS-FBS) they bested me by four points this week. Still competitive overall this year, but not a great trend.

Some good games this week headlined by Louisville-Clemson Saturday night. Overall, not as big of a drop-off as we’ve seen in recent Week 3s.
