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

Papa Scooterbug views this as concrete proof that no skill or knowledge is involved. :roll: Me, I just bought a lotto ticket to see if the luck holds!

Lady DSoWal InsiderMemphis, Tennessee, United States6,131 postsJoined View profileMessageSoWal InsiderDo you do this every football season? Do you have to pick every week if you do it?
Zebraspots, please join in next year. We start with the first week of football and there are usually around 15 games a week to pick. If I remember you can only miss picking for two weeks, but BR and hubby will have to verify that. But anyway, it is a lot of fun, hope you see your picks next fall! 😀

Look for the first set around August 30th. Rules(sorry) will be the same and will be posted at the same time. Let's see if we can get about 40 players this year.
Kurt, is there a preference to start a new thread from your perspective? Skunky?
Happy pick'ems!
