CFB – Expert Recap and Grades – October 2nd
CFB DFS Recap October 2nd
The first weekend of October did not disappoint at all! Four top-10 teams went down, though 2 of the 4 losses were to other top-10 teams. Clemson dropped out of the rankings for the first time in seven years. We’re just getting started this season and it’s already been a crazy one. Be sure to check out our full CFB Expert Grading and make sure you’re reading our weekly Consensus article which we will try to get up on Friday evenings this season. If not Friday, it’ll be up Saturday mornings around 9am CT.
