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

Skunky, I just noticed that the BCS National Championship game will be played in NO. Will you be going to watch your Tigers? I am sure they will be there. And of course the Sugar Bowl will be played there as well. New Orleans is gonna have a couple of weeks of rockin' football!!!!!!!!!

Looks like Reverend Nutt is out at ARK.

http://www.4029tv.com/cfoot459/14619737/detail.html

So what's next for the fightin' Wal-Marters? Who will they hire?

The answer? Whoever Frank Broyles tells them to. Don't be fooled by the fact he isn't AD anymore.

Frank has lost his pull. This was evident when Chancellor White picked Pelphrey for the Men's BB position against Frank's wishes. White will pick the next coach and there won't even be a selection committee. Frank also wasn't supportive of the new AD either, but White picked him anyway.

The answers: HDN will probably resign and take a new position making more money and getting out of the cess pool of the gossip forums in Arkeesaw. There are 5 schools that are actively looking at him, but currently have coaches that will probably be fired or retire.

SMU, Baylor, Nebraska, UCLA and A&M. There is strong talk about him to Michigan as well because Carr will retire, but I think that Myles will go there. My "gut" is either Nebraska or Baylor.

The new coach: Tubby wants it. Just got to pony up the moolah. (I think his goal is to coach at every SEC school before he retires) Butch Davis is possible. My "gut" tells me that Frank will be hired as the football coach on January 2nd after being bored with his 1 day of retirement.:biggrin:

Would Davis leave Chapel Hill after just one year? Tubberville? ARK would have to pony up around 3.5 to get him out of Auburn.

What about Kragthorpe from UL? He's struggled in his first year there, but IMO, Arkansas would be more in his comfort zone from a recruiting standpoint.

If I was an AD looking for a coach, I'd look real hard at Navy's Paul Johnson. Dude can flat-out coach.

OL, looks like you and I may have found the same online source. :lol: But most of mine I picked before posting on here and before looking online, just had to look at a few online before making up my mind. And I have a local source I check with before posting on here. But that is just to see what they think about who I picked.

Kragthorpe is overated IMO. Tubby is an Arkie and was going to be the coach when the good ole boy network did a round about and brought in HDN. Strong sources within the system are saying that he has "contacted" the powers to show his interest. I don't think it would take the 3.5, but would take 2.5+..... There is a cult following of Butch in Arkansas, but I'm not sure he would leave NC right now. He does have a buy out clause that is significant, but could be done. IMO he also is somewhat overrated. Most of his success has been with other coaches left-overs. Still, better than HDN. There is a strong comment being made by a couple of bloggers (who have strong ties and have been very accurate) that White has the "keys to the car"....this is stated repeatedly in their messages....Speculation is that means either: Carr will retire and come down from Michigan to the Hogs....doubt that; or car means North CARolina ie: Butch. It will all sort out in the next couple of weeks.
