And so we begin! Two first-year SLC coaches at Lamar and TAMUC make their coaching debut with their new schools.
All three games are scheduled for Thursday, August 31, and are home games for the SLC against ranked Big Sky teams. How will the visiting teams deal with the heat and humidity “down South”?
The rest of the league gets underway on Saturday, September 2.

No awards or prizes. Keep track of your own record during the season. When all is said and done, we will recognize the winner or winners. I hope to have a poll, but if not, just copy and paste and bold your selections.
The poll will close Thursday before the first kickoff of the Thursday night games.

[McCowboys]

It only takes a minute to complete the poll. Just scroll up and make your game picks.

The Southland Conference has contests the first week with the Big Sky, the UAC, the SEC, Conference USA, and the Sun Belt.

Was gonna go with nicholls AND Lamar and elevation/temperature…but it doesnt appear nicholls has a qb. And Sacremento is pretty low and hot.

altho we dont have a qb, im going with the heat, humidity, elevation and time change to have Idaho puking by the 2nd quarter. 50 degrees cooler up there right now. Going with the wtf shock factor! Maybe Entergy will have a random blackout at their hotel!

I like that the Southland is playing the Big Sky. Just wish it wasnt the SLC cellar dwellers!

LOL!
I haven't made my selections yet, but I am also pondering the effects of our lovely weather on the visiting teams.

The Big Fluffy wouldn’t have it any other way…

He graduated 9 years ago. Since then its been line of “dual- threat”, no-threat players.

We have a juco transfer from cali thats supposed to be good. But i dont know if hes beat out the guys from last year

we also have one of josh mccown’s sons. But hes a true freshman and needs to put on some lbs.

[Puddin Tane]

110 right now. But thursday is supposed to be a chilly 100. (But humidity should be higher thursday)

mother nature has confused the swamp with arizona


its payback for sending the Southland to play in the snow during playoffs

[McCowboys]

Only two days left to pick the winners in the poll. Easy as pie. Just scroll up to the top, put a check mark by the team you think will win in each game, and then cast your vote.
Good luck to all!

[McCowboys]

This poll will close in around 24 hours before the first Thursday kickoff. Vote in the poll above soon.

Good luck to all SLC teams!

We may suck more than last year…..being a Lamar fan is fricking torture

Tough night. Nowhere to go but up and lots to work on. But remember it was the first game under a new coach against a very good team who had lots to prove.

[McCowboys]

This was a horrible first week for the SLC. HCU is the only SLC team who came away with a victory. Granted, some faced FBS opponents and ranked FCS opponents, but they were still losses and many were losses at home.

Tally for the first week Pick 'Em (Please let me know if I have yours wrong):
