Sean Kennedy won the opening round of our playoff fan contest with four correct picks against the spread. Our regular season champion, James Dailey, had a rough opening weekend as every single one of his picks failed to beat or cover their spread. Because of that, Andrew Perez pulled into a tie with him in the combined contest; both of them have 124 correct picks in total this season with Sean five picks behind them.
