I would like to organize a friendly little football contest as I know there is at least a modest amount of interest regarding this topic. All you have to do is pick the winners of the week's upcoming games that I post. Each correct pick earns one point;there is no penalty for incorrect guesses. I will keep a tally of everyone's points as the season progresses. Picks must be posted on the board BEFORE KICKOFF (duh), or they will not count. The SOWALer with the most points at the end of the year wins a, hmmm, not sure about that, but isn't glory reward enough?! Now get picking!:biggrin:

WEEK 1 NCAA Football-Deadline to submit picks is 5PM central Thursday August 30

LSU at Mississippi State

Georgia Tech at Notre Dame

Tennessee at California

Kansas State at Auburn

Florida State at Clemson

Copy and past the schedule in your response and highlight your winner!
For example, here are my picks:

LSU at Mississippi State

Georgia Tech at Notre Dame

Tennessee at California

Kansas State at Auburn

Florida State at Clemson

Woot. I've been waiting over a year for next week. I'm missing a wedding just so I can tailgate. Anybody got tix? :idontno: :wave: :wave:

I'll be there. Normally, the stadium is 70 percent Bama folks, but the Vandy fans seem to have an unusually high interest in this year's team, so tix are a little harder to come by than usual.

Tickets sold out the day they went on sale. Yes, I'd agree that Vandy fans have a little more interest this year.

Tickets online are double or triple face value . :(

I'm sure someone in my group will have an extra floating around somewhere. Problem is, I probably won't know until two hours or so before kickoff. PM me your cell number and I'll call you from the tailgate if I can locate one.

I know I know but I've decided to go on a mini vacay for Labor Day. My last chance before "cooler" weather rolls around. :D

If they don't watch it, another way may be to go to the "yard" and watch them play a pick-up game with their new roomies! 4 arrests is a good summer and now two suspensions.

They at least have enough for a pick-up game of basketball plus one reserve? :biggrin:

And your team is?....

You obviously don't keep up with teams who actually have kids committing crimes involving a VICTIM. Smartass.

So sensitive :wave: , I can't help it when you open the door that wide!! :idontno:

Let me just say our teams play every year. Well, for the last five years my alma mater was on the field with yours but I am not sure if both teams were actually playing :biggrin:

This makes me wonder though :scratch: , maybe we should do another thread on numbers of arrests and see who is number 1 in the country between the championship game and now. I know Texas has had a few too!

BeachSiO2 may have to watch his tongue, so I will speak for him. the alawawa game will not be on local T.V. because the High School games are on Friday night. Not to mention Alwawawa Sucks!!!! I cannot wait till they play in J-ville and hear how badly they were treated by the locals. J-ville is the only big city that could give a rats ARRS about tourism. Have a nice day ?:cuss: :wacko: :breakcomp: :moon: :banging: :trainwreck: :trainwreck: Let the trash talking begin. Observe rule #2 on Slowal, don't take anything personal:welcome:

Interesting you don't have the cajones to tell me who you pull for. Did you actually attend said school?

There isn't a school in the SEC that doesn't deal with this stuff (save Vandy maybe). Why does UA get a story on ESPN about it? Because of who we are.

And Greenroomwhatever, who asked your opinion? Aren't you due back in your padded room by now?

This is what we can call JB's "time of the year".

You know, like our "time of the month". At least we have the hormone excuse.

JB- it's football. The best part about it IS the trash talk!

JB:

Did you really call me out? Well, let me take my shot...

You must be an Alabama grad to have not understood my response. Let me Alabamize it for you with no smileys because it is trash talking isn't it. Please look up to the highlighted paragraph from my post.

1. Our teams play every year.
2. For the past five years my alma mater was on the field with yours.
3. I am not sure if you would call it playing football.
4. I took an early opportunity to blast ALA-BAMA.

Hmm, maybe this picture will help because I think most could already figure it out especially Kimmifunn, Whiteyfunn, and KDW.



You rightly point out that I didn't say specifically I root for Auburn but I thought it was more important to say that it was my alma mater because I didn't want to be lableled as a fan only by you since I knew the trash talking was underway. I did say our teams play so most would have inferred that if I was claiming them, I would be rooting for them.

Finally, you were the first to use nicknames about schools and the FSU one was "criminoles", so let me introduce you, "Pot meet Kettle."

By the way, that was a weak response about why UA 's dirty laundry was aired on ESPN, if I remember correctly the punter from North Colorado who stabbed the other punter in the leg got plenty of coverage. So, let me break it to you in all caps THEIR IS NO VAST RIGHT OR LEFT WING CONSPIRACY ABOUT ALABAMA AND YOU ARE NOT THE CENTER OF THE WORLD. Here is your ticket back to the real world and if you're going to come back with something, it better be with something stronger than "Auburn is a cow college", or "we have won more championships then you have" (since the last one was 15 years ago when I was in high school).

Trash talking is the game inside the game of college football and right now, it looks like you're down by at least two touchdowns.... Whoa Nellie!
