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

Thanks alot Fresno State for finding a way to lose in the last 8 minutes of the game. :bang:

The four that picked Colorado State were the smart ones. Glad to see no one picked Memphis Tigers High. :lol:

And now Boise State. Another unbeaten goes down. They just did not play well. Made nothing but field goals, other than one td. Reminded me a good deal of the Vols. I can forget the money pool now for sure. I'd have to get the remaining 28 correct to have any prayer.

TCU! Yesssss!

But because I picked USC (instead of UF -- how could I have been so bold in August?) for national champs, Big D predicts that cp will be the winner of the Kitty Cup. Size A, B, C, D, double D, ...? :idontno:

And now OK State went down last night. Double :bang:

That poor QB kept getting nailed. And that QB for Oregon and the player Thurman, running back maybe, no one could stop either one of them hardly.

EDIT: Wrong on cp. See my next post.

Jesus, tell me about it. Guess their stingers got limp last night. :floor:

You and I had the same picks yesterday. We did terribly. :bang:

And then to add insult to injury, we picked the loser in the most pathetic bowl game ever, Oregon State vs Pittsburgh, 3-0. ARGH!

That's what the announcers were saying last night. Let's just hope that the remaining SEC bowl teams keep it up.

I did not think it possible for Pitt to be held scoreless in a game since they averaged 360 yds per game. But it sure happened. Yesterday sucked.
