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!:biggrin:

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 guess that is good strategy. Don't you wish it worked? ;-)

:breakcomp:You just wait. I would pick Auburn based on some injuries on the LSU defense, but that would be karmic suicide. By the way, has Kitty picked yet?

I know that would be very hard for you to do skunky. Just like it would be very hard for me to pick TENN....geez, I can even type it anymore. :eek:

Do you think the injured players will be healed by next Saturday? :eek: I mean how serious are the injuries? Do you think they need to wait for about 3 more weeks before they play again? ;-)

Miss Kitty has not posted her picks yet. You might want to send her a friendly reminder. Do we have any Thursday night games this week?

Here is what I read today:
LSU came out of the Kentucky game with several injured players. Two of LSU's most important players on defense, Kirston Pittman and Chevis Jackson, left the game and are very questionable for the Auburn game. Craig Steltz also had to leave the game for a few plays but should be ready for Auburn. On the offensive side of the ball, Jacob Hester suffered a leg injury and did not play in the last of the three overtime periods. Brett Helms, Herman Johnson and Ciron Black played the game with minor injuries and Early Doucet is still questionable. The LSU-Auburn game is a very hard one to predict because of the unknown availability of so many LSU players for the game.

They usually stay mum about injuries. Still, the Florida game was very physical, the Kentucky game was very physical (and long) and it always seems to be physical with Auburn. They sure could have used an open week last week or this week, but that is life.

Pansies. :roll: All that equipment, and they still get hurt. :lol: Tell 'em to suck it up and get out on the field.

I love talking football with Skunky. I think we exhausted the topic of fashion as it relates to uniforms. Time to deal with manliness on the playing field.

Well, I can say this. I was at the Auburn LSU game last year, and with out doubt, it was one of the hardest hitting football games I have ever seen in my life. Auburn was not the same football team after that game, we won the game, but came out of that game one big bruise. Should be a great game!

I have absolutely no clue in about six of these. :idontno:

It may turn out that I don't have a clue in the rest of them, either. :(

It appears that I left off Army / Georgia Tech , and I can't edit the first one! So if Skunky will add this in...
