I would like to organize a friendly little football contest as I know there is at least a modest amount of interest regarding this topic. All you have to do is pick the winners of the week's upcoming games that I post. Each correct pick earns one point;there is no penalty for incorrect guesses. I will keep a tally of everyone's points as the season progresses. Picks must be posted on the board BEFORE KICKOFF (duh), or they will not count. The SOWALer with the most points at the end of the year wins a, hmmm, not sure about that, but isn't glory reward enough?! Now get picking!

WEEK 1 NCAA Football-Deadline to submit picks is 5PM central Thursday August 30

LSU at Mississippi State

Georgia Tech at Notre Dame

Tennessee at California

Kansas State at Auburn

Florida State at Clemson

Copy and past the schedule in your response and highlight your winner!
For example, here are my picks:

LSU at Mississippi State

Georgia Tech at Notre Dame

Tennessee at California

Kansas State at Auburn

Florida State at Clemson

Whatever. :roll: Ok, I have to admit I am a wee bit nervous about this one. I know they will be ready, they always are. Do you think I could get to SABAN and tell him to keep our boy's on the field at halftime? They seem to take naps or sompin' in the locker room at half-time. I still feel in my gut it is ours though.

ROLL TIDE!

Sorry. Since you were over an hour late, I'll have to count tonight's game as a "dnp." :blush:

Skunky, feel free to overrule me. We were at "Little Shop of Horrors" and hubby kept checking for your post. If I had your phone number with me, I would have called you.

How about that come from behind win of West Virginia? That was probably one of the best ones I have ever seen. Tell me, why is that this little guy Noel Devine isn't in the Heisman running? Seems like all you ever see anymore is quarterbacks. BTW, BR I see you chose WV over Auburn, excellent choice. :clap:

Finally 2-0 again starting off. Thought for a bit that Boise State was going to blow things against San Jose State. But luckily not.

LadyD, I'm pullin' for ya.

I'm taking a gamble DD going with Boston College and Wake Forest as they are both down now, were leading earlier. BC is down by 7 against NC and WF is down 3 to Miami (FL) but they are not out of it by any means as far as I am concerned.

That is easily reachable. My point of view is that favorites cannot win all the time.
