Oh heck it's close enough!
And we've waited LONG ENOUGH!!!!!


15 games -- tried to pick all P5 vs P5 but options are limited til conference play starts.

No point spreads!
Just straight up pick the winners!

Tie breaker or this season lets make it the BONUS is the total points scored in the WVU vs Tennessee game. Who ever gets closest gets the bonus gets an extra win for the week. I'm hoping the stats keeper ExPat is back this year. Haven't seen him or Mr Canada in a while.

Meat Chicken and idk why

Interesting note on 8/17 Bobby Petrino was braising enough to publicly state "We're gonna win!" Lamar Jackson was drafted btw. WTH is he drinking to say that publicly before playing Nick Saban? Does he think he's Joe Willie Namath or Steve Spurrier?

You like Oregon State a 1-11 team who's only win last year was over FCS 0-11 team Portland State Vikings. By a 35-32 score. Scoring in the final minute to win. Plus they gave up 58 to G5 team CSU.

Coach or no coach they can win this one running backwards. But truthfully I hope you are right.

In honor of Dana Holgorsen's movie where he costarred with a younger Liz Hurley going opposite Wesley Snipes in Passenger 57, I'm changing my total points scored to 57. I got a feeling!

I got the sheet out early so everyone would have about 2 weeks. The anticipation was getting to me.
I'm in, thanks for the tag. Spending most of my time with on the BL. Didn't think you have anything out until Monday. Time to sharpen up the picking skills and spreadsheets.

Glad everyone is in I can remember from years past.

The spreadsheet is built and ready for action for another season of MMB Pick 'Em!

Welcome new players: @SeronimusPratt, @triplepotts, @Panhandleer, @mtneeer1 , @WVGeek , @Wessew , @BobbyBoucheer .

Of course, welcome back to all the returning players. A couple of semi-regulars still not heard from: @WVinUSAF and @BlueNGoldBlooded.

A few insights to share: UConn, FAU & Louisville should forfeit because they have no chance according to our players. And we always make the right pick!

The Bold & Fearless Award for the week goes to SeronimusPratt for picking Oregon State over tOSU. o_O Runner-up is triplepotts for his pick of LSU over Miami, only one to do so as yet.

Average tie-breaker score: 63.35. My prediction: WVU 44 - TN 17.

Also, I will be at the game on Saturday and it would be great to see some of you there. Shout out for EX-PAT wherever you go and I might be able to respond, if not too drunk yet!

For any possible new players the entry deadline is prior to kickoff of the first game, Thursday at 7pm.

The last game is Monday, so I'll get stats together on Tuesday if sober enough.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL AND LET'S GO MOUNTAINEERS!
