I know it is a short slate of games this week, but I'm fired up about football, and hope you are too. Let's go ahead and get this party started. I'm also making up a couple of lines so that we have more to choose from this week. The place I use only had five lines this week, and this will make it with nine choices.


THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 3
SOUTHERN MISSISSIPPI -14.00 South Alabama
ALA.-BIRMINGHAM -30.50 Central Arkansas (FCS)

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 5
MEMPHIS -20.50 Arkansas State
ARMY WEST POINT -5.50 Middle Tennessee
MARSHALL -27.50 Eastern Kentucky (FCS)
NORTH TEXAS -16.50 Houston Baptist (FCS)
Southern Methodist -21.00 TEXAS STATE
TEXAS-EL PASO -5 Stephen F. Austin (FCS)

MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 7
NAVY -3.00 Brigham Young

BYU.
Only game left. I forgot you were starting this week. :sHa_dielaughing:
Does that count or do I have to make my pick before game 1?
If not, it is OK and I can start next week.

I'm quarantined overseas and actually (seriously) lost track of the days somehow... Or I've lost my mind...not sure which.

I don't even remember now what I picked first, but regardless, it had to have been better than that dumb pick.

That wasn't a bad choice at all, but no cigar for you either.

Very well done, Blueboss. That's a big 14 points on the board.

No points for the pick, but you deserve credit for the picture. Still no points, though.

A pick as bad as mine, Pedro. Sorry.


South Alabama
USA!
Pappy with a big 14 points to match blueboss. Well done, guys.


Middle Tennessee
Flounder, you should have peeked at my pick and you would have known that was a bad pick.


No idea. I guess give me

Middle Tenn.
See what I told Flounder. Sorry. It's generally a mistake to pick the same thing I do. I try to take that same advice, but somehow it never works for me.


BYU.

Last man standing, unless somebody else plays this week. Will be watching to see if you join the leaderboard. Good luck tonight.

Had to take USA, UAB is not sneaking up on anybody this year; and they were my horse for a couple of years...

I knew USA was a lock when Darrell didn’t pick them, being a Birminghamian and all.

Southern Miss. Coach resigned today.

Apparently he had a rough offseason with his father dying, and many of their players opted out of the season and transferred. Still, I would have thought they would beat South Alabama. Obviously that was not correct.
