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

I think it may be that they are still in mourning. I am sure after reality sets it they will be back. Their Gators are as important to them as Alabama is for me. Actually, I felt very bad for BR and Big D yesterday, I knew they probably were very sad.

Alabama just outplayed the Gators. It never entered my mind that we could lose, so I was really ticked off last night ... and crying.

Sorry for the delay. BR and I are in mourning and traveling back from the beach.
Congratulations to cp for continued leadership. Cp is the regular season champion!
Congratulations to Red Dawg for a great week of 8/10. This is four better than the top three leaders. F4S also had a great 7/10 picks. The highlighted names rose in the rankings.
Note the first column is last year's total ranking of regular season and bowls.
We will again have all 34 bowls. It is a great chance to overtake the leaders for the season championship. Those who did not participate in the regular season are welcome in the bowl picks.

No Aggie, that is not me or my son. I am registered on foxsports.com though to do the pick'em. I should have posted a comment to one on there saying bad things about the SEC and that the SEC and its fans were nothing but inbreds. Don't remember exactly how it was worded, but the word imbred was included, tried to find the post last night, might have been removed. Pissed me off. :pissed:
