2020 WEEKLY PICK'EM - (Friday 9/11 Deadline)

Post by AGinNEIowa » September 2nd, 2020, 6:50 pm

2020 Pick'Em - like everything else this year - is going to be different.


KICKOFF and WTHCG will be on Hiatus in 2020.

WEEKLY PICK'EM - I'm skipping Labor Day weekend games - so week 1 will be the week of 9/11-9/12

Usually Weekly Pick'em includes 15 games for 15 weeks. This year, it will be 10 games for as many weeks as we can go. (If B1G, MWC and P12 go live later in the year in go into January, we'll continue getting 10 games per week). I'll do my best to select games that shouldn't be blowouts - but we will see what we get.

Each week is open to anyone who's interested, entry can be made through GOOGLE DOCS (link will be provided each week) or you may reply to the weekly thread in The Quad Forum with your pick for who will win each game - straight-up winner, no spreads involved. The weekly thread will not include a list of the games, but you can reply there with your winners for the entry.

Without Further Ado! Here is the GOOGLE DOC for WEEK 1

Quad Thread link -you may enter your winners there if you can't get the Google Document to work

There are times when darkness seems to prevail and hope is diminished to the point that one may struggle to even get out of bed. During these dark times, we may be blessed with true heroes who rise to the challenge to restore hope and fight back the darkness. Their efforts bring joy to the masses. They are the heroes we need and certainly the heroes we want. AGinNEIowa you are one of these heroes!

Thanks for running the pick'em!

only 8 entries - and only 7 games.
everyone lost the Louisiana - ISU upset, and only 1 got Ga Tech over FSU (it was me :rock:) and only one missed App St over Charlotte (also me :noidea: )

bigblue wins the week with 5 and tiebreaker of 3

Undecided if i put up future weeks. I'm not sure it's worth it for under 10 - but be on the lookout, I may just go ahead and try to pick 10 more games for this weekend...
