NCAA Week One Picks

Its the most wonderful time of the year! This will be my 4th year making college football picks on this blog and whenever I get to making week one picks I always mention how this is far and away my favorite two month span of the year. I literally feel like the other ten months are just filler for the incredible months of September and October. Footballs back, pumpkin flavored foods line the shelves, cooler weather finally starts to creep in, and of course, HHN is back! Horror movies are a nightly staple, and the long days of summer give way to earlier beautiful fall sunsets. Is there anything that isnt perfect about this time of year? I just love picking college football games as well, which is what this blog is for. As every year, I will pick every Big Ten game and the top 3 non big ten games of the week. A fresh slate, 0-0 record presents endless opportunity. My playoff pick for the year is

Ohio State, Arizona State, LSU, and TCU. Lets get to it!
