First week. First round flops.

The 5-day opening weekend of the season is in the books and it’s safe to say we’ve never seen more carnage for 1st round picks in CFB Pool history. 5 of the first round picks in the CFB Pool Draft suffer losses.

#1 pick Texas goes on the road and loses a ballsy head to head double game showdown vs. Ohio State.

Sergio takes full advantage of the rare road, ranked bonus points setting the tone for a huge Saturday. Later that day his LSU Tigers win in the “other” Death Valley at #3 pick Clemson. Another road, ranked bonus win and Sergio tops the charts with a blistering 62 point week.

#4 pick Notre Dame heads to Miami and loses a double-pointer at the hands of the Hurricanes. Champ takes the double loss.

#7 pick Boise State gets slobber-knocked at South Florida. Squiggy is certainly second-guessing that strategery and enters the cone of confusion for the 2025 season.

Joining Boise in the the Twilight Zone of uncertaintude is #9 pick Alabama. What in the hell was that? and how do you trust them going forward? The Tide lose our 3-time defending champ’s doubler. From the penthouse to the outhouse. A riches to rags CFB Pool crash for…

Navin.

Bronko bucks up in week 1 with 6 wins – even with his #1 (Oregon) on the bench. Iowa State picks up 2 wins and 15 points for the week. He cracks 50 points and gets the task of being closest in proximity to Sergio’s backside.

Cletus sits in 3rd – Patience pays off as his Utah Utes throttle UCLA in his double win.

Wile E. takes advantage of getting Georgia at #8 – beating Marshall by 38 points points in his double game. The rub? The Dawgs were a 39.5 favorite. That’s an 8 point swing.

Squirrel leads the pack at the bottom half of the pool – on the “Pizza Line” in week 1 despite the double-loss by his Longhorns.

Operaman had an FCS opponent drama-filled weekend. 5th round pick Amy loses to a plucky Tarleton State team and Kansas State had to rally at home to beat the SiouxHawks.
