Ok college football fans, it's almost that time of year again. For those that have not already commented on the other thread that they are in you can do so here. All are welcome to play. This year Iris and I are corroborating together picking the games each week. Here are the rules for this years pick'em, these are the same as last year.
1. The games for each week's SoWal Pick'em will be posted on or before Monday evenings.
2. The deadline for making your pick for any game is 9 AM Central Time on date of that game. (See #10 below)
3. Anyone who misses the deadline (as defined in #2 above) will forfeit all games not picked for that date.
4. Any changes after a pick is made must appear in a new post, not in an edited prior post, and by 9 AM Central Time for the date of the game for which your pick is changed. Failure to do this will result in your change being invalid.
5. For some games that are of great interest, but in which one team has a lopsided advantage, points may be added to the underdog's score by the person choosing the slate of games each week.
6. Each correct pick earns one point.
7. The winner of the SoWal Pick'em will be the person who has the most points, not the highest percentage of correct picks.
8. Bonus questions may be included later in the season in case a tie-breaker is needed. The points from these questions will not be added to a picker's total points for the season.
9. Leaders for each week, for the regular season, and for the bowl games will be recognized. However, the winner of the SoWal Pick'em will be the person with the most wins for the season, including bowl games.
10. The 9 a.m. CST/CDT deadline for posting your picks of course is for when all games are only Saturday games. If there should be a game thrown into the picks on Thursday night as there has been at times the picks need to be posted by 6 p.m. CST/CDT that day unless the game is earlier then they will need to be posted before the earlier start time, otherwise, that point will not count for you if the game is already in progress.

I agree with you. Letting a 2-8 team take you to overtime and you have to win it there. That is the kind of game that can make a team drop in the rankings. It would Tennessee if they were ranked. And there are some overrated teams also.

At least you aren't continually staying near the bottom like I am. Was told to move up I'd have to pick differently and that's nearly impossible with 16 playing. Because virtually everyone picks pretty much the same one way or another. And it backfires on me picking opposite as it has done all season. So I give up. Accepting the fact that I won't move up. I'm 12 back of the leader. I did well 3 years straight. I suck at this this year. Might just be enough to make me not do this anymore.

Congratulations to cnestg8r for keeping the lead at #1, even though I closed the gap in his lead to 1 point. Congratulations to Red Dawg I for having the weekly lead at 11 wins. It was tough to do that this week. Rivalry week coming up will be rough. So many great games to choose from. Good luck to all!

What a ballgame between Baylor and TCU. TCU always has had a good team it seems. The cold and weather definitely affected play in this ballgame. Happy TCU pulled it out.

Tonight hasn't been kind to me at all. How can a team have only 30 seconds left in a game and be up by 1 and find a way to lose like Notre Dame did? No way to finish in the positive now unless California wins. And my pick of California over Arizona State isn't going so well either for California. Not a happy person right now. At least my team won. Really only positive thing today. Did not like the late TD they allowed Vandy to score though near the end of the game. Oh well, a win's a win.
