This season we continue our annual competition of picking against and with the Dayton Daily News, Columbus ThisWeek and the Cincinnati Enquirer. Here’s who we say will win the big games in each region on opening weekend. Do we like your team’s chances?
DAYTON DAILY NEWS Last Week’s Results: (none) During my three-year run with the DDN, I had finishes of second, third and fourth in the Football Pickers Contest. Last year I “unofficially” won it by beating second place finisher Greg Billing. We’ll see if we can make it two in a row this year.
