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

Not a funn night. At least they were giving full pours of wine in 16 ounce cups in the clubhouse to ease the pain.:(

As if it were any consolation, it was really a funn topic of conversation that the VT main starters had their jerseys stolen by Georgia Tech students, and they played wearing borrowed Georgia Tech jerseys with their names written on them with Magic Markers.:funn:

Also it is interesting that all classes at Georgia Tech on Thursday night and all day classes on Friday were cancelled due to the game. It is the South, and football rules -- although tonight's game wasn't worth cancelling classes. I guess the students would disagree -- many will be too hungover to attend classes if they were held tomorrow.

I'm sure you're wishing your classes were cancelled tomorrow!!!

No, kidding! I am so tired this morning.:yawn:

The ones with the yellow wigs sit in the end zone. I sit 5 rows behind the visiting team's bench. I was the one with no shirt and boobs painted yellow.:floor: Just kidding.

Sorry. Been really busy with trying to work and spend 3 hours a day driving to/from visits to Mom. Guess that's my payback for scamming her when I was at Tulane.

My daughter does it, too. I don't want her to be out of money, run out of gas, and get stranded in some sketchy neighborhood in Atlanta. So, I gave her my Chevron card. Unfortunately, the Chevron near Georgia Tech has an array of grocery items, including beer and wine. So she uses the card for groceries as well as gas when she is low on funds. I can tell which charges are gas and which are not just based on the amount. We've "talked" about this, but we need to have another "talk."

Back on thread, I just hope Tebow is well tomorrow (but I know he won't be after the pounding that UGA gave him). I still don't understand why Meyer didn't have a backup plan in case Tebow were injured which was inevitable since everyone was out to injure him. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to know that Tebow (with Harvin's help) equals the Florida offense. There are five top-quality quarterbacks at Florida who have never gotten to play.

INTERCEPTED AGAIN!

The SEC is just too damned good. We beat each other up. If we weren't having to beat each other up, we'd rule the college football world! YESSSSS!

The two divisions is a bad idea IMO. If we had one division, we could focus on NCAA wins, instead of guaranteeing that we'd have to have losses within our own conference due to beating each other up.
