Week 1 of Rock Chalk Talk Pick 'em is in the books and I pretty much sucked for the first week which is greatly disappointing. I blame the apparent oversight in picking Illinois. My blind faith that Dan Hawkins would suddenly become a good coach. A unabashed hatred for Nick Saban. Believing our next opponent was better than they are. And finally, my assumption the Notre Dame couldn't possibly get back on track this year. Oh well, there's always next week.
Congrats go out to Prophet's Picks who wins week 1 of the pick 'em contest and currently sits in sole possession of first place in the overall standings. Goat of the week is Foreigner who either has horrible football pick 'em knowledge or more likely neglected to make his pics. It's ok, there's always next week.
Next weeks picks will be up today so login, make your selections and get them in on time for this weeks games. THE FIRST GAME FOR PICK'EM THIS WEEK KICKS OFF ON THURSDAY SO BE SURE TO MAKE YOUR SELECTIONS BEFORE THEN.
