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. Cnest8gr is taking back over the picking the games this year. 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. REVISED: Saturday picks are due before the scheduled game time (not kickoff time) of the first Saturday game which is usually 11 a.m. CST/CDT. If your picks are submitted late on Saturday, you will forfeit all games for which the scheduled time is prior to when you submit your picks. For Thursday/Friday night games the picks need to be posted before the scheduled game time (not kickoff time) of the first game which is usually 6 p.m. CST/CDT unless the game time is earlier, in which case they will need to be posted before the earlier start time. Just as on Saturday, you will forfeit all games for which the scheduled time is prior to when you submit your picks.

cnest, on the National Championship game we do pick just who we think out of the four will win the National Championship? Is that correct? Since we already are picking who we will think will win in the Bama/Washington and Clemson/Ohio State game?

Your pick on the last game answered my question. This is how I thought we chose last year.

Lady D, I am not sure what to say other than I don't think any of the above listed teams are going to beat Alabama this year:cuss:

I agree with cnestgr. Of course we pick who wins in each semi-final game. But if someone loses one or both of their semi-final picks, I think s/he should be allowed to re-pick the winner of the championsship game. Like Skunky said to begin with, this is a friendly game. Everyone should have the fun of picking the champion, regardless of if s/he didn't pick the semifinal winners correctly. There's always a chance for the need of a tie breaker. That can be managed if a tie occurs like it has in the past, such as questions like how scores the first point, etc.

That can't be done until after the semifinals are played.

Well, 30A Skunkape picked Bama ahead because he probably is right about no one being able to beat Bama. Totally forgotten how this was done last year but mine is what it is. And I can't remove it.

Everyone will have a chance in the dead week to repick the Championship with possible tie break picks. I'll enter your initial Championship pick (if you pick one). During the dead week, anyone can change that game if they feel the need. If not, your original pick (if made) stands. Sorry for the confusion.
