Re: Survival game--play here
I like the anticipation of outcomes getting crazy which starts to happen about this time off the season..
“Before I leave I’d like to see our politics begin to return to the purposes and practices that distinguish our history from the history of other nations,
“I would like to see us recover our sense that we are more alike than different. We are citizens of a republic made of shared ideals forged in a new world to replace the tribal enmities that tormented the old one. Even in times of political turmoil such as these, we share that awesome heritage and the responsibility to embrace it.”

Re: Survival game--play here
Woof. Tennessee should be the surefire bet but man, they are having some trying times. While that's good for us, potentially, next week it makes it tougher this week. My other pick would be Ole Miss but they're not exactly lighting it up and neither one affects future weeks for me so it's a tough call.
I'm going to go Tennessee, but I'mma hafta pray on it and maybe come back and change it if the spirit moves me.Follow my insane ramblings on UK sports and this crazy world we live in: @UKSalsaKat

Re: Survival game--play here
Also, Doc, I had another thought: what if we were required to make our picks according to real-world scheduling principles? Like, you may pick a maximum of 5 non-SEC games (since we're playing 13 weeks instead of 12) and a maximum of 1 FCS game. Once you've played your FCS pick you are not allowed another, and once you've played your 5 out-of-conference games you may only pick SEC games from there on. Of course the rule of not reusing teams would apply as well.
Of course, I realize that might be too much to manage, keeping track of that for every player, but I think it would be a fun balance of difficulty as well as forcing everyone to think ahead. And it wouldn't run into the problem of weeks where there are no SEC games, or only one or two where everyone would be forced to make the same picks.Follow my insane ramblings on UK sports and this crazy world we live in: @UKSalsaKat

Re: Survival game--play here
It would be difficult but not impossible. Maybe limit the out of conference to the first couple weeks but then I like the idea of people having to take a risk here and there. I think double plays are going to be in, whether it players choice or one designated week is to be determined.

Re: Survival game--play here
Running out of options, especially with the East being so unpredictable, so I guess I have to burn my back-pocket bonus card: Alabama
I probably should take Florida. Picking SC as my SUP pick means they're likely to lose by 3 TD now.Follow my insane ramblings on UK sports and this crazy world we live in: @UKSalsaKat

No worries, Doc. Plus every time you post, I get a smile in seeing the two hot babes, and remember one of my favorite movies of all-time, so it's all good. (Yeah, I'm pretty surface level, WYSIWYG.)
