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

Sowal ncaa pick em

Hello Sowaler's!!! I'm back!!!! Been meaning to get on here for a while. I can't wait for football pick em to kick off into high gear, especially since I will be able to do the whole thing this year. So how is everyone? I hear skunky isn't doing it this year, hopefully skunky will be able to at least do the pick em though.

Sorry guys, I've got waaaay too much on my plate this fall to keep up with anybody else but my team. Of course, I wouldn't do much worse as the ACC and SEC are basically all I traditionally keep up with anyway...:lol:

Hey Fulmer4senate, I am ready for the pick'em also. I guess you will have to get Kurt to change the title of your user id now to kiffin4senate since Fulmer is out. :idontno: I hope you will post my picks for me for the games for the 5th since I will be at the beach. I will have to get with you by phone when the games are posted to tell you who I want to go with.

I understand what you are saying Sonny. I've been dealing with being a store manager. Work, work & more work. But one thing is for sure, not even work can come between me & tennessee football this year. College football for that matter. I'm getting real antsy for college football to start & for some picks as well. *Patiently waiting BR :biggrin:*

Rules for the 2009 SoWal Pick'em

1. The games for each week's SoWal Pick'em will be posted on or before Monday evenings.
2. The deadline for posting is 9 AM Central Time on the first day of play for that week?s group of games (either Thursday, Friday, or Saturday, depending on the week). No changes or additions can be made after this deadline.
3. Anyone who misses the deadline (as defined in #2 above) can post by 9 AM Central Time on Friday or Saturday, forfeiting all games already played that week. Those who miss the deadline only get one post ? edited posts will not be accepted.
4. For those who post their picks prior to the deadline (as defined in #2 above), any changes in their picks must be made in a new post rather than by editing an earlier post, but no later than the deadline.
5. Each correct pick earns one point.
6. The winner of the SoWal Pick?em will be the person who has the most points, not the highest percentage of correct picks.
7. Bonus questions may be included later in the season in case a tie-breaker is needed. The points from these questions will not be added to a picker?s total points for the season.
8. Leaders for each week, for the regular season, and for the bowl games will be recognized. However, the winner of the SoWal Pick?em will be the person with the most wins for the season, including bowl games.
9. This year?s winner will receive double the reward received by last year?s winner.
Happy picking!:wave:

Remember, if you don't post by 9 AM Central Time tomorrow but post by 9 AM Central Time on Saturday, all you lose are the Thursday games because there are no Friday games in the group of pickem's for Week I. The only penalty for not posting by 9 AM Central Time on Thursday for Week I is that once you post, no edited posts or further changes will be accepted.

Have funn, everyone!:wave:
