    OK, we have finally arrived for week 1 of the contest. Picks should be available tomorrow. I am curious how Yahoo will make their schedule picks, including which teams and if any Thursday night games will be included?

    Kp, I see where Yahoo has added the dropped entry again? I am reluctant to remove the entry again as it may remove both entries. I guess we will just have to ignore the second entry?

    I think Scott and AJ crashed Yahoo’s software by doing so well in recent pick ‘em contests.

    They had several teams listed as the favorite who were not.

    But hey glad the picks are available and College Football getting
    into gear.

    Kind of surprised that Utah and Florida was not listed. Perhaps because it was Thursday night.

    Don, do you have a link that I can use to log into the game. When I go to College Football Pick'em | Yahoo! Sports , I only get the option to create a group or join a group and that is how I keep getting a new entry.
