If you've never played before, this is a fun way to while away the upcoming college football season. In a nutshell, pick one team that hasn't lost yet. If they win you get to pick another team the next week. Lather, rinse, repeat. No prizes, just for fun. By the 8th or ninth week of the season, the number of undefeated teams usually gets down to 10 or 15, so you might want to save the top teams for deeper into the season. Rules 1) Pick one college FBS (aka Division 1) team per week. (136 choices week 1!) 2) The team you pick MUST BE UNDEFEATED and PLAYING THIS WEEK. 3) Once you pick a team you MAY NOT PICK THEM AGAIN. 4) If your pick loses you're out. You only advance to the next week if your pick wins. 5) If you fail to pick in a given week, you're out. 6) Last player standing wins. 7) Picks must be posted in that week's thread. 8) If all the undefeated teams lose in a given week or no survivors can advance to the next week, the tie breaker is the player who posted earliest in that week's thread. 9) Each succeeding week, post your pick for that week, as well as those of your previous picks. This helps YOU not to repeat a pick. 10) If you decide to change a pick, don’t edit the original post, just make a new post. I use the last post you make for your pick. This will also affect tie breaker (Rule 8) 11) Be very clear with your pick. Follow the name format of ESPN Conference Standings. (i.e. OSU could be Ohio State, Oklahoma State, or Oregon State) 12) Schedule weeks are per ESPN. 13) Keeping up with your picks is part of the game. If someone picks a team that has a loss or is not playing that week, don't feel it is your civic duty to point out the error of their ways. 14) Pick must be in thread before kickoff of your game. Here is a link to the Week 1 https://www.espn.com/college-football/schedule Tricky bit in week one as 8 teams play twice in “Week 1” (Rule 12). If you pick one of those, you must designate which game. Post your Week 1 picks in this thread.This message has been edited. Last edited by: jmtgsx, Redeemed! | ||

No link above. I think this is it: https://www.espn.com/college-f...ll/schedule/_/week/1 "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

Nicholls defeated #4 Incarnate Word today. I'm still picking Troy to beat them in the second part of week 1 because that will be my only opportunity to pick Troy. Troy travels to Clemson in week 2. So my pick in week 1 is not super easy, but at least Troy will be at home at The Vet and it is still a FBS hosting a FCS situation. Good Luck everyone! Beagle lives matter. ______ (\ / @\_____ / ( ) /O / ( )______/ ///_____/ | |||
