Damaramu Posted August 28, 2005 Report Posted August 28, 2005 I thought that South Carolina and Central Florida kicked things off this Thursday. I forgot.....did you change it to where we aren't doing obvious blowouts like OU/TCU and so on?

I forgot.....did you change it to where we aren't doing obvious blowouts like OU/TCU and so on? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes I select the games myself instead of going with just the national t.v. games like I started doing the last few weeks of the year in 2004. I felt Oregon/Houston, while not a great match up, will be more competitive that CF/SC. I still will always have a Thursday and Friday game every week since they will be related the tiebreak quesiton regardless if there is a good match up or not. There is actually about 10 games on Thursday this week but none of them are very good.

Bored Posted August 30, 2005 Author Report Posted August 30, 2005 As CanadianChris mentioned in the TWiCFB thread the Tulane/Southern Miss game has been postponed so I've removed it from the games to make picks for list. No one had picked Tulane yet so shouldn't make any real difference.
