It's that time of year again to get this thread going! I will keep the same format that was used from the previous seasons. As always, please feel free to make any suggestions if you would like to see something changed to the formatting.

I will track 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 closed lines, I will use VegasInsider consensus, and the line will be listed as it pertains to Tech. I will update the top post as the season progresses. ENJOY!!
