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

No offense taken. It is just surprising to me that people actually put one another's academics down when talking about football. :idontno: Personally, I have never made fun of anyone's college of choice, I am just pleased they are pursuing a degree!I thought Skunky and I were just talking some smack. All in fun (at least, from my point of view). Once when I got my feelings hurt on a sports thread because people were disparaging the University of Florida, someone said that on this (or any) message board, you ought to expect some smack on a sports thread. Since then, I try not to take any of the sports talk to heart.

Your comment about Alabama's attitude almost sent me over the edge. You might not have been speaking directly about me or any other Alabama fan on this board but you of all fans should've known that was a low blow (even if it was just an opinion.)

I think I see now. You are lonely Kimmi and just need a place you feel at home. You are welcome in the Sabanation anytime you'd like. 😀

They wore those helmets once for a bowl game about 10 years ago. Not sure about the unis. Love the pelican.
Skunkape, I got this off the Dandy Don web site ::
LSU will be playing Tulane this Saturday at 11:00 a.m. on ESPN2 and the Tigers will be wearing new uniforms designed by Nike. The uniforms were designed to help fundraising efforts for hurricane Katrina victims. Personally, I do not like the new uniforms because they break tradition and are a little too flashy for me, but I am an old timer and do not like change too much. The new uniforms will be used for only this one game.

SoWal NCAA update...BR and Miss Kitty are all :clap: again! JB still has an attitude to go along with that degree. Kimmi is choosing her words very nicely!!! Dr, Skunky still cracks me up with the pick'em results. Darlene is slowly recovering and we are so glad she is back!!!
I am having a hard time with my picks this week. :bang: tried to use this week to bond with PawPaw and Steven and they gave me 4 games with opposing choices. (you know how men like to help the little woman ;-) ) So, bear with me while I get some darts. :wave:

If you work for said institution why didn't you print out a PHD instead of a Master's? :lol:
