SOOO glad it's finally football season and we're playing games! Now it's time that I can finally get this thread going! This year I will be using an average ranking from Paul Myerburg's USA Today Re-Rank, ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI), and TeamRankings as those rank only the schools currently playing football. As always, please feel free to make any suggestions if you would like to see something changed to the formatting.
**edit for 9/26 game** The weekly rank will now comprise of an average from Sagarin's ranking, Massey's ranking, TeamRankings, ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI), and Paul Myerburg's USA Today Re-Rank. I will also start posting the weekly rank for all teams in the conference based on this model.

The schedule below will be noted as follows:
opening line, closed line, Sagarin's predictor of win margin, Massey's score prediction, and weekly rank (see above for description). 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!!
