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

Alot of outcomes disappointed me today. :( Hope I do better next week. And wouldn't you know it, the Tennessee game next week against Vandy is PPV only, fourth game this season of Tennessee's that is PPV only, and the last game against Kentucky is not being televised at all, according to the schedule on the Vols website. :bang:

Welcome to my world...I can't tell you how many buckeye games have been on the "Big 10 Network" this year. I think you had to have dish to get them. :angry:

Sorry OL. I feel your pain.:wave:

:wave:I know, gull I know..it wasn't a good day. At least the second half anyway. We were driving by the stadium today right before the game started (very near the hospital and on the way to my moms) and we saw 4 F-16's coming for the flyover at the Shoe. It was very cool.

Take you time posting the standings tomorrow Skunky.:biggrin:

Get on that Moo U. bandwagon. I really feel happy for coach Croom and his long suffering legion.

Back in the day,I wore a airbrushed tshirt with Go TO Hell Ole MIss on the back and USM something on the front. Can't you see my good friend and me up at Ole Miss in Sept. in shorts and that shirt? They of course had suits with wool vest on. (trust me I saw no sundresses BR) WOOL I say in the Ms heat. Hotty Toddy on them. The stories I could tell about USM-OLe Miss games...........back in the 70's and 80's.

:wave: Hey CP. I definitely think Tennessee will beat Vandy. Being at home makes a difference. They have not lost at home this year. They need to beat Kentucky also, they will have to in order to be in the SEC championship game. So here's hoping. :biggrin:

Actually this week was my picks. She did call the Ohio State upset, but might have missed USC-Cal so I guess that makes us even. ;-) One thing though, we are only four behind the leaders so we made up one point.

Here kitty kitty and the other white meat :biggrin:

Skunkster...you outdid yourself this week. :wave: So, here's one for you....I am driving west on 20 and pass a pickup with LA tags and a small purple sticker that says "Nick Who?" Next thing I know that pickup is behind me...all I can see in the rearview mirror are these words...

GEAUX TIGERS! :biggrin:
