Long Live College football-greatest sport ever.

Week 1 Pick'm
Rules same as last year.
No point spreads
Pick the winner and the tie breaker.

Obviously on 9/3
WVU vs VT at Fed Ex
Tie breaker is # of points scored

It is sad after near 9 months of no college football that there isn't a lot of great P5 vs P5 matchups.
There's a few but not like there should be imo. I had to pick some P5 vs G5 cause some of the P5 vs P5 games are just not that good (20 pt spread with tOSU @ Indiana, and Washington @ Rutgers is over 30, and Louisville vs Purdue is 25) and just not putting that on the slate.

9/1
Colorado State @ Colorado

9/2
Maryland @ Texas
California @ UNC
NC State @ South Carolina

Correction not in the swamp- Michigan vs Florida in Jerry World - Arlington, TX

Kentucky @ Southern Miss

Florida State vs BAMA - Atlanta Mercedes Benz Dome (Still a home game for BAMA)

Correction BYU vs LSU at 9:30 in New Orleans-latest I'm hearing

9/3
Texas A&M @ UCLA

9/4
Tennessee vs GA Tech -Atlanta Mercedes Benz Dome (probably a home game for Tennessee)

My picks

WVU (60)

Colorado

Texas
UNC
NC State
Michigan - cause Florida has 10 players suspended over a credit card scheme-just learned that.
So Miss-still have no faith in the other Stoops

BAMA

LSU-not a neutral site and not losing in New Orleans to BYU

UCLA

GA Tech (have no faith in Butch Jones as a head coach.)

It's a pleasure to put it together. It means for 13-14 weeks, we got college football. Expat will hopefully keep track of wins and losses.

Btw xgunnx,

You should probably pick a winner in Cal @ UNC . You don't have that one picked.

One last chance to do it.

Btw Florida has had 10 players suspended for a credit card scandal. Between the hurricane (LSU vs BYU) and this scandal 2 of 11 games are totally different. At least the games are being played.

Week 2 has a lot better games and more of them.

Eligible to change out Fla for Mich still 3x? Were it in the swamp I might still keep it, but neutral site? Shitstorm round Gatorland now...if able I will pick Mich whilst I hold my nose...

Those ten Gator suspensions are 80% scrubs that wouldn't have seen the field anyway. Should be close game, and a hard one to pick for certain.

You're eligible to change as long as before kickoff. There's 2 starters out of the 10. One is a starting WR. Another is a corner. Florida looks shaky with this type scandal. I've never heard of an under dog pulling an upset after 10 players suspended.

Texas is getting run off the field
It's 27-7 in the 2nd qtr.

The defense is a sieve and the offense is bad. Oh and the ST not to out done has missed a fg and had a blocked fg returned for a td. Yeah it's bad.

44-34 Terps

Texas went for it on 4th and 2 at midfield instead of punting and making a freshman qb start inside the 20. Tom Herman ain't that genius everyone thought was. That was dumb.
