Here it is folks! Yes, I am still doing it every year just like I have done since my MoSports days (which was a LONNNNG time before the SCA boards ever surfaced). If you have never experienced my picks before, then please allow me to explain how it works. It's pretty simple, and it's not intended to start fights. I pick each team that I think will win, the final score of the game, and my top 10 games of the week. The top 10 games may be teams that are struggling, but should make good competition for each other. You will see almost every team crack my top 10, at some point. I pick the top 10, by which score should be the closest. That is why I like to do it this way, to get more teams in there so it's not the same (good teams) every single week. That is pretty much it. Feel free to discuss, but I don't want to hear any griping. This is just for fun, and I would love to keep it that way. If you are going to comment, please show some respect to other towns, their players, coaches, fans, etc. And as always, the first two weeks are the hardest to predict. Thanks!

Just for a little extra, let's do a prediction for it. I am going to go with Nevada over Seneca by a few touchdowns.

Scratch the Webb/Carl Junction score that I put on there. Now that I read Webb is "human" this year on the Ozone website, I might just think differently. I still think they will win, but by a lesser margin. I am also going to throw that game into my "top" and make it a top 11 for the first time ever, just for this week.

Webb 28, CJ 14

I think that has to be the potential to be a great game... If I was picking a game of the week in SWMO that just might be it... I am pretty sure MediaCom in Spfld will be doing just that... that being said, will be shocked if the Cards dont win.

It will probably be the game of the week to be honest (Although, I still think Reeds/Mt Vernon should be a dandy). I was tired and not feeling well (kinda sick at the moment) when I did these. I didn't put as much thinking into it as I usually would. Hopefully I am better by Friday night!

After week 1, I went 23-7. I will also update week 2 here in a bit and post where they stand.
