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.

In the process of compiling the totals for week 3 and and total wins and current rank. Please try to make sure everyone has their picks posted by deadline, whatever that may be so you don't have to forfeit a point. Also make sure all 15 games are there. I try to make sure all games are posted for everyone each week. One left off a game and was notified but never posted the missing game and their choice. Please make sure when your post your picks they can be seen by me, I picked up on one barely seen in Italics but it wasn't noticed by someone else just doing the spreadsheet as a help to me so I can compare mine, looks like they were selected via the quote option or something. Thanks.

Will have Week 3 results posted sometime tomorrow morning. I have it in spreadsheet format, just going to get verification that it is done correctly. I also will be posting week 4's picks tomorrow night. Thanks for being patient while I try to learn how to do this spreadsheet stuff using the sort features to get the data in order by column.

Should have picked Connecticut for the points. I just can't not pick my home state team. Unless they are playing Gators.

Yes, I felt pretty dumb for not picking them due to the number of points. Oh, well. :)
