Dave and Scott are starting to pull away from Jerry as the college football season enters its fifth week.

Dave led everyone last week with an 11-4 record to take a one-game lead over Scott, who went 10-5. Hilldrup CEO and guest picker Charles McDaniel also went 10-5, while his son and fellow guest picker Charlie McDaniel tied Hootie with a 9-6 record. Hootie is now 7 games off the lead, but vows a comeback is in the offing.

This week’s guests include Chris Long, former UVA football star and member of the Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles; and Jonathan Coleman, a New York Times best-selling author whose works include the Jerry West book, “West by West.” He is a former Charlottesville resident and former UVa professor who now resides in NYC.

The three regulars on the panel have picked Virginia to win every week since the season started. The trio are unanimous again this week, but they all are going against the Cavaliers, believing N.C. State will win in Raleigh. The two guests, however, both like the Wahoos.

This week’s picks:

Another Day, Another Great Meal at Great Harvest Bread Company…

(updated )

From left, Danny Wilmer, store owner Aileen Magnotto, Jerry Ratcliffe, and Tom Payne at downtown Charlottesville location Over the past week, a couple of pals and myself have discovered “Bread Heaven.” That’s what Great Harvest Bread Company is known as among its customers, not only in Charlottesville, but in its 200 independently franchised stores around the country.
