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

For now BR, and it's about time, if the Vols win and it looks like no problem hopefully, our day will be even better. 😀 Stanford needs to win, Oregon needs to win and GA. The announcers on ESPN act like California could give Stanford a problem. I hope not.

Lady DSoWal InsiderMemphis, Tennessee, United States6,131 postsJoined View profileMessageSoWal InsiderOregon saved me from my last 4 games from the Vols on ending up a trainwreck. If they had lost I would have finished 1-4 those last 4 games because of Stanford and GA losing. And I am happy to be up some from near the cellar. :lol:

Lady DSoWal InsiderMemphis, Tennessee, United States6,131 postsJoined View profileMessageSoWal InsiderCongrats to you also for a good week. And I hear ya about the other 4 teams. I think we are not the only two that finished 11-4 though, I have looked at Red Dawg's picks. Red Dawg went with the Vols, Oregon, California and Kentucky, all of which won. They are showing Red Dawg with 10 correct.
