SLC Week One: Pick 'em

[BEAR]

Let's hear your picks and see what SLC fan can come the closest at the end of the year. I'll throw in a prize and if anyone wants to match it with other prizes then GREAT! You must play from week 1 until the last week, not including playoffs.

Choose the correct Win or Loss for each game and get 1 point.
Person with closest score difference for each game gets 1 point. Only 1 person gets the point unless another picker gets the exact score difference as the other. For example: FPC picks Cowboys by 7 and I pick Cowboys by 7...we both get a point. All picks must be in by midnight the day BEFORE the game. If we both pick the Cowboys to win and they lose and coincidentally by 7 neither of us get a point for the score difference. You must pick the winner AND the correct score difference to get both points. Any questions just bring the REV a beer and he'll answer them!

Now onto the fun.

Week 1 Games:

All picks must be in by midnight August 28th.

If anyone has any details about one of the opponents this week please share.

UIW was ranked #120 in Division II football to end last year.

That's why I put such a large margin of victory for the Bears.

And Sam Houston by 70

Unless HBU gives up at halftime like SLU did last year, or they can't stop our 2nd and 3rd stringers (also like SLU) there is no way Fritz embarrasses the HBU program by hanging 70 on them.
