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

Just in case some of you might want to change your picks for the BIG Game. ;-) . Ok, maybe you won't want to change your picks, but I thought you might want to read this. I kinda liked it. 😀

It should be a close game. Dunlap being out might hurt them some, but remember last year the Gators played Alabama with out Percy Harvey, and still be them. I just think when you get down to it, the difference in the two teams is the QB, bama's is good, the Gators is Great.

24 - 14 Gators.

Well, that is the end for Florida also. :cry: Cannot believe they played that badly. Now they know how it is to play bad and be on the losing end unfortunately for those who went with Florida. Not what most expected.

C'mon lady D. The SEC just has no equal! Last week proved it.

Although Colt McCoy is the most appropriately named college football player - when you consider his team and his position - EVER. For that alone he should win the Heisman. 😀 Assuming they win tonight.

Texas will have to play a better game than they did tonight to even stay with Alabama. Bama came out playing very aggresive and played great D, have to hand it to them.

Some tough picks tonight, but sure is fun to get on here and try to make picks. To bad everyone that post on this board does not do it. You missing out on a lot of fun.

Pathetic that Texas couldn't even get enough points to beat Nebraska and their spread. They played as bad as the Gators. I never am in a good mood when starting out 5-2 and then Florida looked like Tennessee did against them, just not quite as bad, and #19 California let Washington run all over them, and then I cannot rely on Texas to help me finish good. Instead I have to settle for a pathetic 5-5. :bang: I've been unhappy with my picking all season and being near the bottom.

Wish I would have gone with Bama. I have to give it to them though, they outplayed florida by a BIG margin. I don't really like Bama, but they did play really well. I think Bama will win against Texas in the National Championship game if Texas plays as bad as they did last night.
