I really enjoyed keeping up with this thread last year, so I wanted to continue with a new thread for this season. I hope some of you enjoyed it as well. If there is another way you would like to see things formatted or any additional information added, please let me know and I'll look into it. Here's to a fun and healthy 2017 season! Go Dawgs!
I will keep the same format from last season tracking this year's schedule with opening lines, closed lines, Sagarin's predictor of win margin, Massey's score prediction, and USA Today's ranking for each week. For the opening lines and closing lines I will use VegasInsiders consensus and the line will be listed as it pertains to Tech. I will update the top post as the season progresses.
