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.

SoWal 2017-18 NCAAF Pick'ems Week 8 Results
Congratulations to aTmMom for continuing the Season leadership with a three game margin. Congratulations to Beach Runner for the Week's leadership with 11 picks. It is interesting that no one picked Boston College and we all lost. Also Bob Wells was the only one to pick Louisville over FSU.

Happy to have had a great week. Congrats to aTmMom! ShallowsNole, sorry your Seminoles lost. That cost me one, too. We still love you.

Note to self, pick against Tennessee, they are showing underdog to Kentucky and Southern Miss, and with the way Missouri blew out Idaho probably BIG underdog to them, just don't see us winning any other games without a miracle.

Lots of “shadowing”going on here.

A week of Mid American , Sunbelt, Conference USA, Mountain West picks-and -pans, with plenty of points could get LD, MurrayB, etc. back in the hunt.

Paddle boarding in Late October, suggests Otter? (Could just have well been kayaking @ WaterColor on a windy day.....same thing!)

........Now that is swimming up-stream

Sooooooooo, given we are nearing the “bewitching hour”, should be like taking candy-from-a baby. ( not that I suggest that!!). Unless he/ she has a piggy bank full of dinero, and come November 15 when the spoils of Halloween are gone, amazing what somebody will pay for a bag of Skittles...or a half-unwrapped Snickers bar...

( Just Saying...)

Boston College
Mississippi
Oklahoma State
Wake Forest ( hey you be called TheDemonDeacons, and it’s Halloween weekend? Are you kidding me?????
Pittsburgh ( Natasha Kinski does a Panther suit proud!)
Northwestern Wildcats ( Michigan State about to be blinded by the purple-people-eaters)
Ohio State!
Florida, plus the points
Iowa State ( TCU , as a road favorite, just does not fair-thee-well Halloween Weekend...)
Vanderbilt ( them Commodores got that Intercoasal Waterway all figured out late Fall...too much, too little ‘ too late for the Gamers)
Mississippi State
Tennessee ( you named Butch? On Halloween? You better be good...)
Georgia Tech+ the points
Arizona
@rizona State ( USC forgoes the knee, and instead takes a swan dive)

It’s time to go out on a limb...
Or shimmy-shimmy Coco-puff, right up the trunk...

Congratulations to aTmMom for continuing the Season leadership and holding a three game margin. Congratulations to Bac and Murray for the Week's leadership with an incredible 10 picks. The rest of us averaged 6 winning picks. I think this has been our most challenging all-time week.

Wow! Only two pickers in double digits. It will be hard to make up for this week although the bowls should help. Gators, you were awful and your coach is cray cray.
