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

:roll: I did horrible this week. I just need to go with my first instinct instead of analyzing the games. A woman's intuition is rarely wrong. :biggrin:

:roll:I've experienced a few of those also. Especially on week 8. And I should have gone with my initial gut instinct on the Mississippi State/Kentucky game on week IX. Kind of was thinking that I wouldn't put it past State beating Kentucky, but then I thought, no, it won't happen. But I have started analyzing the games over the past 4 weeks.

Considering UA's chances of winning are, uh, slim, I would have liked to seen GameDay come back for the recruiting value alone.

Win or lose, it's great PR for the program.

Oh, ok, voice of reason. I know we have a slim chance of winning. I also know that I want to do everything in my power to at least help us have a chance, even if it is a very slim one. GameDay can come back when we play Louisana-Monroe. :wave:

In order to improve your chances, I will root for LSU, my teams never win. :floor:

BATON ROUGE, La. -- Backup quarterback Ryan Perrilloux and linebacker Derrick Odom are not expected to play for No. 3 LSU against No. 17 Alabama on Saturday because of their part in a nightclub brawl.

May sound crazy, but I think this is bad news for Bama. Miles' inexplicable use of Perriloux has done nothing but screw up Flynn's rhythm and confidence.
