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

BR darling, no offense, really, but it's funnier than heck that you and TFT would complain about schools/teams with an inflated attitude of superiority...:funn:I personally don't feel superior. I just feel proud and lucky as hell when the Gators do well. Because what goes up will come down, so I just enjoy the ride when we're up. I definitely don't feel entitled.
I'm not offended by your comments. I can totally relate to people who have strong feelings for their college teams.:wave:
Is anyone else really looking forward to Iron Bowl week?😀Is there a catchy name for the FSU-Florida game?

I literally can't wait to Iron Bowl week, which is great because I haven't cared the last few years. Game ON!

I'm kinda banking on Gussie for tickets. He's pretty good at pulling them. Or Phead's girlfriend's family owns half of Jordan Hare, so maybe through them if he behaves.
Megan has a kick ass tailgate, if you can handle Joe. So that's a back up plan for me...

Maybe Gussie kind find me some? I can barely handle Joe with non-football conversations. Imagine trying to talk to him during the Iron Bowl when you are a fan of the opposing team. :boxing:

Come to think of it, no. The Tallahassee newspaper has dubbed it "WAR" a couple of times, but as far as I know (and I'm pretty good at keeping up with these things), we just call it The Florida Game. Vice-versa if you're from UF.
Remember, though, our rivalry only goes back to 1947, when both schools became co-educational. Bama and Auburn go back to when Jesus was a little boy.

Anthrax Scare at Auburn
Auburn football practice was delayed nearly two hours today after a player
reported finding an unknown white powdery substance on the practice field.
Coach Tommy Tubberville immediately suspended practice while police and
federal investigators were called to investigate.
After a complete analysis, FBI forensic investigators determined that the
white substance unknown to the players was the goal line.
Practice was resumed after special agents decided the team was unlikely to
encounter the substance again.
