Oh Goodie!!!!!! Thanks Cane....... let’s see, now we have plenty of time to factor in all the factors that may or could impact a game. Things like game location, game time, temperature, wind, precipitation, player availability, coaching changes, system changes, scheme changes, matchups, COVID, etc, etc, etc.......... uh, is there a limit on the number of times I can flip the coin????? :lol: :lol: :lol:

___________________________________________

I may have to change the Picks soon ...

The Power5 heads are going to hold a meeting where they discuss the upcoming season, and how any games will be played.

On the table; 10 Game Schedules, Conference only Schedules, Whether the season should be delayed 2 weeks.


I'll leave the current Picks as they are, for now. Then adjust them if things change in the coming days.

____________________________________________

And we have Life ...

The Season is coming up, and quickly.

I have Re-posted the Picks with revisions. There is a reduced Opening Week schedule, because of the health panic, and overcautious politics.

However, the Season has arrived!

The first game is set for this upcoming Thursday, September 3rd. [4 Days from now, folks]


You can jump right to the Predictions page, here:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=12656&p=120492#p120492

A short list of 9 games to prognosticate.

To you who participate; Good Luck!

So far, 7 for 8 ...

I know there wasn't much to pick from, but there were a couple of close games.

One more for the Week. I'm hoping for a decent game.

Though, that triple option is tough to prepare for, especially when you didn't get a full camp to work the system.

Army shown what they can do with it. Now, let's see if Navy can match that efficiency vs BYU.
