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 again posting the picks 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.

The results will still be the same, probably, but isn't USF playing Cincinnati tomorrow?

Thought I saw UMass on the schedule but saw something that said canceled also. Must look again. I remember now that the UMass schedule showed their game against USF canceled for tomorrow. I mentioned it to BR.

VegasInsider had USF in two games. Cincinnati was a high spread, so not it my radar. UMass was a pick'em. CBS show Umass canceled. Covers.com only shows Cin/USF. All picked USF, so if they win we all get a win, otherwise a non-game. Sorry for the confusion.

Wow, you weren't kidding[/QUOTE

This is one pick I would not mind missing if we could get a W but I would love for us to be able to get some yards passing and have more than FGs. Need TD's.

Air Force
FSU
Virginia
Michigan State
Georgia Tech

( now , for the other 10, am going to have to “dig deep”into the seers, the hypnotists, and even a few local HoreseRacing experts ( track hounds) to see whether its The Jockey, The Horse, or The “track”matters most this week...)

And The Secret Sauce?

- Gonna’ have top it off with a few picks-and-pans from the RocketScientists leading their local FantasyPools...

Who else you gonna’ call?

GHOSTBUSTERS?

( nope, saving that for next week...)

Last year in week 8, Skunky scored the first perfect week since our inception. I think it may happen again this week. Who might it be??
