Important notes:
>>> Our 10 picks in the table above are made "Against the Spread." For example: If one of our staff members predicts Michigan to beat Penn State, 21-20, he may have Penn State listed on the chart because he is predicting a Michigan win but does not believe the Wolverines will cover the spread (which is -3.5 points in this case). For those unfamiliar with how ATS picks work, head to this link for a full rundown!
>>> The spreads are locked in at 2 p.m. Wednesday every week. Each staff member had the same spread to consider.
>>> Scoring System: 1 point awarded in the season standings for each correct pick, 1 bonus point awarded for correctly picking an upset straight up, 1 bonus point awarded for predicting the exact score + winner of Nebraska's game.
>>> We will do weekly picks during the regular season, and we will extend it into the postseason if Nebraska reaches a bowl game.
