NCAAF Prediction Contest . . Week #1

Don't get frustrated early on folks, this contest usually totals out at around 92-95 games to predict, and all too many times I have seen several folks go from a fantastic 6-1 one week then a paltry 1-6 the following week, and it's gonna happen this year too . .
Also, a week where you forget to make your picks and automatically fall 7 games behind. :(
 
Which champion are we missing?

THN11



@BillyL
Do you have PMing capabilities? I need an address where I can send my entry fee. I'd rather send it to you now and then you be responsible for the payout. Because I don't venmo or paypal or any of that stuff.

Terror Beard, I'm truly not worried about $20 right now, you may very well have a perfect week out of these 13 weeks. even, if, you do not, I got you covered come payout time and we can settle up later.

;)

I'm going to try to send out reminders this year, RH . . folks can always get something up on the board and edit them later.
 
Please send to:

P.O. Box 123
Roanoke, VA 24016

I'm not positive, because as you know, I'm fairly new here, but I think that GSD fella lives in Lynchburg. Not Roanoke. And I also think that he would be pretty disappointed that you botched that after fake knowing him for a decade.

Hey Bro' . . . you covered me for one of the contests last year, allow me to cover you for this contest this year,

I'd be honored to do so . . so, poast up some predictions on me and best of luck.

That Colorado game should have been some handicapper's super-duper lock pick of the week.
 
Billy, I'm changing my UNC pick to California.

***** New twist to this year's contest *****

I will cover the $20 buy-in fee to the first 3 poasters that put up a perfect score. So, all you have to do is be be very good for one week and this contest will cost you nothing whatsoever, other than the time it takes to make your selections . .

Should there be multiple perfect weeks, the 3 person(s) who have submitted their picks the earliest will be the ones I will cover. Time stamps matter . .
0-8 counts as a perfect score, right?
 
BillyL is changing his pick to California . . my fellow scorekeepers please note this change. TIA

Can someone please quote this poast . . gracias.
 
I had to change my pick. I'm playing to win and I always choose UNC as a life-long fan, but they're going to lose badly, I'm afraid.

Same here . . it's difficult to pick against UNC, knowing your pick is going against them. Even more difficult is hoping that you have made the right choice while basically having to root against the team you truly want to win just to be right in a prediction.

Mark Richt, for some reason to me, is either snakebit, or just is just plain-old not an elite coach. I'm sure UGA is pleased with their present coach and glad to see Richt in their rear-view mirror.

You sir, are just one game away from being perfect on an 8 game opening week. That to me is just simply amazing. Maybe, just maybe, the 5 previous champions of this contest should be thankful that you never participated until this year.

To my knowledge, no one has ever been perfect on an 8 game week. Just WOW . . . !

Thank you sir. It is certainly luck, although, Way back before I was married and had room mates we used to play against the lines for collage and pro. My roommates were moo fans and all I asked (after I took their $) is for them to address me as Mr. Football after I won. I beat their ass every week and they got rick sick of addressing the royalty each week.
 
I have updated the standings thru Sunday's game . .

If, you see a mistake . . please alert me.
