Despite A Recording Snafu, The 7 Friday Night Team Still Managed To Log Their NorCal Football Picks For Several Key Matchups •

Host Chace Bryson’s failure to press record trickled down from Tuesday’s show, but co-host Ben Enos graciously showed up to make his picks a second time. And Ben has some work to do after surrendering his overall lead in the picks standing after holding it for just one week.

The guys make three main picks from a board of eight big games, and then proceed to their Challenge Round. Coach Terry Eidson also drops in for his picks and hangs around to rant his way through our first edition of a segment we’ve titled “Dumb Football.”
