Ladies and gentlemen, happy Wednesday.

0:07.8

Welcome back to the Early Edge College Football Picks show presented by BedmGM, the sports book, Born in Vegas.

0:14.6

We have a lot to unpack from this past weekend.

0:16.8

We have a lot to look forward to this weekend.

0:18.8

A ton of chaos, a ton of chaos to react to and look forward to. And we're going to do it with the stars of the show, which today might just be one star. You know, sometimes we hit October. People have things to do. The show must go on. So myself and Mr. Emery Hunt are going to bring you through this awesome week six slate that we have ahead of us.

0:39.2

We're going to get through best bets.

0:40.4

We're going to get through underdog bets.

0:41.8

We're going to get through these marquee matchups that we have, a few ranked on ranked games.

1:26.2

Tech or even Iowa State. So hopefully they can rebound and show those voters, those pollsters this weekend why they should be ranked higher. But yeah, great weekend. That sets the stage for a very good week number six. I know. I'll tell you, as a Georgia Bulldog, definitely a tough weekend. One thing we can never do is just shake Alabama outside of the national championship, which I was boots on ground for. So I'll never complain as a tough weekend.

1:44.6

Outside of the national championship, which I was boots on ground for, so I'll never complain.

1:47.7
