On Thursday Night into Friday morning in the fall, Scott Van Pelt provides one of the more entertaining segments in sports media with his “Winner$” segment on ESPN’s SportsCenter. Admittedly not the sharpest bettor around, SVP picks his favorite CFB and NFL plays week-to-week and often times finds success. Each and every week, we cover his picks and track his record from previous weeks. Last week’s picks were successful, as SVP was 2-0 in CFB and 2-2 in NFL. Will Week 4 (or Week 5 in CFB) be the same? Let’s dive into SVP’s picks for this weekend’s football action.
