Anyone else? We're almost there.

[flexmaster33]

If no one else shows...you could move the Independents into the ACC? Of course it would be better if we could fill out the ACC...just four more.

[AmphibiousRodent]

Possibly. I would have to figure out the scheduling.

BREAKING NEWS

INDIANAPOLIS-- The NCAA has issued its preseason Top 25 coaches' poll, and at the same time has requested its coaches stop drinking when they vote. NCAA president Mark Emmert could only hold his head in his hands when told Louisiana Tech not only topped the rankings, but received 90 percent of the first-place votes.

"This is embarrassing," Emmert said. "I knew the coaches all got together to vote, but I didn't think alcohol would be involved."

Emmert then broke down in tears when told San Jose State was ranked ninth. Other highlights include Toledo ranked seventh, Vanderbilt ranked second and SMU third. Conspicuously absent from the Top 25 is defending NCAA champion Auburn.

The coaches gathered at a Las Vegas hotel last week for voting. The NCAA knew something was amiss when Oregon coach Chip Kelly tweeted "LOL just voted Army #1. GO BLACK KNIGHTS LOL" during the meetings. Minutes later, Texas coach Mack Brown tweeted "Jack Daniels rulz. Totally going 3-9 this yr."

Emmert said the NCAA is meeting this week to discuss changes to the voting system. None of the coaches have commented on the rankings, although some have said they don't remember voting at all.

[AmphibiousRodent]

I have about half of the Week 1 games sent out, and will get the rest sent tomorrow afternoon, hopefully before the Fresno State/Cal game starts.

[AmphibiousRodent]

All of Week 1 is sent out. Good luck to everyone except Cal.

Game of the week:
#5 Texas A&M (TX AG 90) hosts #3 Southern Methodist (tubaman).
[game]9681683[/game] [game]9681684[/game] [game]9681686[/game] [game]9681687[/game]

[musicalmaven]

yeah - i won 1 game of the 4, game # 9681711 against arkansas (cubs24).
not for nothing - but he went first in all 4 games. i would have thought in a 4 game series we each would have a shot at going first (twice each).
it was bad enough that he got a bonus, usually one i couldn't get to, from the drop, if not from his first turn in every game too.
was it because he was the visitor that he got to go first in each game, or was it just my typical luck of the draw?

[flexmaster33]

as I understand it...starting is simply luck of the draw

[AmphibiousRodent]

That's my understanding as well. It's a long season though, so it should even out. Hopefully.

[cwinslow22]

I don't see my team (Bowling Green) on the week 2 schedule.

[AmphibiousRodent]

Bowling Green has a bye in Week 2, along with a few other teams. When I get some time, I'll add those to the schedules.

[AmphibiousRodent]

At this point, there are 7 players who still have not joined their Week 1 games. If they have not been joined by the time I start sending out games this Friday, replacements will be brought in.
