CFB · week 0 + week 1 · Sat, Aug 29 to Mon, Sep 7
The kickoff slate: week 0 and week 1. Our call on the spread and the total, on every game we called.
What am I looking at?
Every FBS game on the 2026 kickoff slate with the latest captured line, the book that posted it, and our rating read beside the market. Every card carries our call on the spread and our call on the total, or says No call yet where our analyst panel has not made one. Ace, Stack and Buck, our three panelists, work every game we call. Members see every call. Where books have not posted yet, the slate says lines pending.
Week 1 is final. Every pick on it grades against its locked number on the record within 24 hours. The week 2 board publishes Tuesday at 2pm PT. See the grades → Week 2 schedule →
Every card has an Open game link to the full game page.
What the cards show, stated plainly
One card per game, the same on every card. The kickoff. The matchup with the market spread on each team and the market total with its book. Then two calls side by side: the spread and the total. Each call carries its tag, Pick or Lean, the side and the number, the panel meter, and three faces for Ace, Stack and Buck: a lime ring means that panelist is on the call's side, and a red ring means he took the other side. A game with no call says No call yet, because an absence is a result too and we would rather print it than leave a hole.
The calls come from our analyst panel: Ace, Stack and Buck work every game we call. Nothing else on this board is a call.
The line is the latest capture per game at DraftKings, FanDuel or BetMGM, book named on every row. The rating read is our number for the game, shown when both teams carry a rating; it includes about 2.5 points of home field, and none at a neutral site. That number is context, never the call. Where the market has moved off the number we took, the call says both, ours first, so the reader knows which number is ours. Calls and the line movement open with membership until kickoff. At kickoff the calls lock. The number we locked at sits next to each team from then on, every call on that game opens to everyone, and nothing on that card moves again. Every card is the whole read. The Open game link opens the full game page: the call, Ace, Stack and Buck one by one, the matchup context, the line history, and every trend on the game.

Where the numbers come from. Schedules and finals come from the league data we load each night. Lines are the latest capture at DraftKings, FanDuel or BetMGM, with the book named beside every number. Every Pick locks when it posts and grades at that number on the public record. Our number is context; the panel makes the call. Research, never a guarantee. 21+.
