The two schools with the largest groups of fans in the pool are Arkansas and Notre Dame, and many people are fans of both and can't bring themselves to pick against either no matter what. This week the Razorbacks and Irish make the list of games, and some people have taken to the strategy of always picking against both teams just knowing that a win can be a big swing their way with so many others doing the opposite.
Michigan is again at home and again the favorite. Sound familiar? This match-up is sort of a Loser Leave the Pool game because we may not see the loser making the top five games again this season. I don't think we've ever had a game featuring two 0-2 teams, but this one is just too intriguing to leave out. The top game of the week may be USC visiting Nebraska with heavy interest from Nebraska fan Ryan Harris and USC fan Tim Bichlmeier. Do the Huskers have it in them to beat the No. 1 ranked team? We've had an above-average amount of bonus-point games in the first three weeks. The question is, should you be taking advantage of them or not?
