ATS picks for all games are evaluated against the first available spread, with pick'em games treated as a one point spread for this purpose only because there are no ties in college football.
Again this year I'll be keeping track of games where my methods might dictate a wager against the spread if you're into such things. Picks against early spreads (basically the first spread available after I complete these ratings) are the ARGH Early Bird Picks, and are listed below. Picks against spreads (generally Thursday or later during the season) that have moved to a favorable number are ARGH Buzzer Beater Picks, and will be posted when available.
