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!:biggrin:

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

Week 11 Results

Congratulations, Alabama! I know Darlene is happy! I had a feeling GT would lose, but I had to go with my team. :wub:

Oh, the bonus was 76. So everyone who picked over 75 (not me :bang:) got the bonus point.












And the details:

And the details:

Now to just await the week 12 picks. Have the teams not scheduled more games this season than usual??? It seems all of them have. I don't remember Tennessee having more than 10 regular season games but this season they are playing 12, well if you can call it playing! I call it barely being there.

Anyway, I'm going to hate for this to end, I look forward to this every year. :biggrin:

And the details:

My husband could not believe that there were 76 total points in that game between Ok. St. and Texas Tech. He told me to put less than 75 as there was no way that many points would be scored. I told him in the Texas-Texas Tech game there was 69 points, at least I believe it was.

The Gators have THREE regular-season games left -- South Carolina, the Citadel, and FSU!

I was thinking about it this morning and come to think of it, Tennessee did play 12 games last year. They finished the regular season I think 8-4 and then played and won their bowl game which let them finish at 9-4 for the year.

:eek:...OVERTIME!

Whew...Roll Tide! I bet Darlene is screaming!

So I am just now able to focus. :eek: Screaming is an understatement. My house was shaking. It was a house full of Bama fans in all their glory. Great food, great drink, great game!!!!!!

I KNOOOOOOOOOOOW she is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ROLL TIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:wub::wave:

What a game.

I have no nails left.

I peed on myself.

My throat is sore.

Put Jefferson in. :angry:

Good game Bama.

Ditto, Ditto, Ditto.......:wave:

I called her. She is so excited! :lol:

Didn't call you, IBD. I know you are disappointed. I really thought LSU might win. If the game had been at night (the civilized time for games in the state of Louisiana), things might have turned out differently. This observation is coming from my experience as a Tulane alum.

:blush: I am surprised that I made any sense at all. The ML's were flowing, and a lot of them!!!! I was excited that is for sure!!!!


Awesome- I just listened to a phone message from Darlene - saying the same thing.;-) Were you having some big fun?

:wub::wave: to you too! I love that AT &T is just now making your message available!:bang:

:blush::blush::blush: Ummm....yes, jdarg big funn. I guess you could tell by the message. I am pretty sure I was slurring just an itty bitty bit. :wave:

I am a Happy, Happy Bama girl!!!!!! ROLL TIDE!!!!

I Wish my son and I and my hubby lived down there. My son and I would go. That will be one heck of a game, BC against Fla. State. Someone will take you up on that I'm sure.
