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

HALFTIME 1 23 4 T Tulane
017 17 Southern Methodist
710 17

Hey BR....:wave: Pony Up!

That looks all screwed up! Tulane and SMU are tied 17 -17 at the half.
Go Greenies! (But I really don't care -- Gators won -- that's what really matters -- and TN lost)

Wow, IBD and Skunky, did you two about have a coronary? Talk about a great pass and catch with 7 seconds left. :clap:

And I believe that I am still tied with a certain someone where total points are concerned in the NCAA pick'em. :biggrin:

Yes, very good game. THis season has been full of them. The last touchdown pass Auburn made was a great one as well. Gotta love good football....

Mr. IBD is away and I am sitting here watching it by myself. :blink: So I am talking to, yelling at, arguing with, high 5'ing myself...:biggrin:

No probs. It was the biggest win over Tennessee since 1986. It's been awhile. :wave:

I wish you and Kathy could have been there. Unreal.

The Rammer Jammer cheer at the end was so loud, it gave me chill bumps.

Saban's "process" has officially begun.

Everyone kind of had a rough time with the picks yesterday other than BeachRunner and SeacrestKristi. I had thought a good deal about a few games before going with who I went with. Didn't think Vandy would pull off a stunner over SC, nor did anyone else. So go figure.

Anyway, it will be interesting to see the point totals on here now. :blink:

And I guess I am ready for the next weeks games to pick, I guess. :idontno:

On behalf of Florida State University, I'd like to apologize to everyone who picked us to win.

29 - 24, 1:16 left in the dadgum game, and we decide to play Hot Potato...:eek::shock::angry::bang::cuss::puke:

At least we made it home in time to see the end of LSU-Auburn. :blush:

I cheated -- Big D helped me.

I'm so sorry I missed the end of the AU/LSU game, but I had to be at church this AM at 7:45 for a gig. I was tired after tailgating and then hanging out at the hospital. Sounds like an exciting ending to a game!

Congrats, Skunky. Sorry, Kimmi.

:wave:Skunky. What a damn game. I have to say, that's my favorite game every year. You know...our ususal in-state rivals have kept it pretty uneventful, so I always look forward to the LSwho game.

Are you going to the Sabanation in 2 weeks? I'll buy you and Punz a round at the Ryan's Mega Bar.;-)

You probably won't believe this, but I was pulling for AU last night. I believe we would have had a better chance against a two-loss LSU team than one with national title hopes still alive.
