Official TBE NCAA Football Pickem Sign-Up!

Yes, I know it's early. I just want to get this up and going so it doesn't catch anyone by surprise.



1. College football season begins September 3rd!



2. I've already put together a spreadsheet together, very similar to the one we have for MLB Pickem. Check it out by clicking here.



3. I'd like to have the same number of people making picks each and every week. I will have the games posted at least 2 weeks in advance, and of course you only have to make your picks once a week, instead of daily like for the MLB Pickem.



4. I follow college football religiously, so I think I have a good idea of what games we should pick for. I'm a Jayhawk fan, but I'm not going to litter the Pickem with games like Northern Colorado at Kansas, for example.



5. Here is an example, of the games I chose for Week 1. Rankings and game sites will be added when they are available...

Here is the full NCAA Week 1 schedule



6. I'm open to any ideas, comments, suggestions on this. If somebody else wants to take the lead, that's cool too. Whatever everybody wants from this, to maximize participation. If we have say, 15 people in on the Pickem, I'd like to have those 15 people making picks every week. So whatever it takes to make everyone satisified...



Note: I also participate in Yahoo! Sports NCAA Pickem each year, and I will do so again this year. If you are interested in that as well, send me a PM and maybe we can get a TBE group going. All you need is a Yahoo! account, and it would actually be quite different than this, as I would not be picking the games, and we would have confidence points to assign to our picks. PM for more details.



[center][size=4]Please post if you want in on this! I hate rules, but please only join if you intend on participating every week! [/size][/center]

Even though the Big Ten [spoiler]Eleven[/spoiler] sucks, I'm sure there will be plenty of good match-ups...

I'm in for this. I could also do the Yahoo! one

Added you guys, only 8 of us so far...

Shameless bump. I was wondering, do you guys want to just go with straight W/L records, or a points system?



I was thinking 1.5 for each win (like MLB Pickem), 3 for 'game of the week', and 5 for 'upset of the week'?



What do you guys think?

Im in
