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

Wow, Florida has one hell of a coaching staff to get the team so focused after the Auburn loss. We'll see if Miles can make adjustments, otherwise, I think Florida wins. Still have a half...GEAUX TIGERS!!

I just told Mr. K not to call you right now. ;-) You are a good fann! Mizzou is up 14-0 over Nebraska!!!! :clap:

Go LSU!

Florida's favorite number seems to be 49. They have 49 team penalties which leads the SEC. Not a thing to be proud of. :scratch: That never gets mentioned on here.

LSU is back within 4. Plenty of time. I am doing good on this round. I have 8 of 10 correct so far. I have picked Ohio State to win also. Will end up with at least 9 correct.

I tell you, what a great game. Nothing but applause for Florida for bouncing back from a loss with such heart and focus. Kudos to Miles for going 'all in'...I guess he wants that Michigan job;-)

I'm obsessed with the fact that SC lost to Stanford. And that the SECOND has a hold at 1.

Go Vols.... And bammy came close to losing old homecoming again. Thank the lord they pulled that out. 2000saban.

Congrats, Skunky. Florida looked great, but Miles won the game for LSU with his gutsy calls.

It's still great ... to be ... a Florida Gator.

That was a great game. I went to bed wound up and am still wound up after that one. One of the best games I have seen. That is the kind of game I like.

Thanks Beach Runner. I was really happy with the way they looked and played yesterday. That is the old Tennessee I am used to seeing. Florida played a great game. I love a close football game. It makes for a better game.

The Tennessee fans and boosters have really been after the coach and the players about their play, or lack of, in games that are important, ie, California and Florida, so Fulmer and the team had something to prove. Not to mention every article I've seen mentions his job being on the line if they don't turn things around. So hopefully this will continue.

I'm ready for the next weeks games now. I ended up getting 10 of 12 correct yesterday, I think if Ohio State won. The best I've done so far this season, hadn't had much luck on the previous weeks but I made up for it this time. Bring them on Skunky. ;-)

Yeah, I did mention it. And every team has it's negatives.

The announcers sure made sure they mentioned it last night. It was mentioned in another Florida game several weeks ago, them averaging 9 penalties a game.

And Tennessee has had its share of negatives this season. Lack of defense for one in games that really count, for example, against California and Florida mainly. And lack of ability to have a running game, like against Florida, not just this year but last year. But both those things improved in yesterday's game. And they need to keep improving.

Sorry Skunks. Looks like you fell into the call rotation this weekend.

We held an LSwho fan hostage last night. True story. And we shared a drink out of a bucket. It was true love.

The game last night was a great one. It certainly kept you on the edge of your seat.

Tebow is impressive.

Thanks Florida for a great game that certainly deserved the prime time slot.
