MVC Pickem'

http://sports-evo.com/pickem/

Just got my invite for this season. I think this is fun to mess around with for the heck of it. You will need to register. Then join a league (I only join the MVC league to play in, but they have others for BCS conferences). Once in the league, you can make you selections... even for the whole year just about. And you can change them so long as it is before the game. I recall they would send an email if I hadn't made a pick for a game that day (say for example, someone in the MVC is in the preseason NIT and they advance to another round, the next matchup gets added which i obviously hadn't picked yet, so I would get an email).

Anyway... I think these guys run a pretty nice pickem site and encourage all to join in.

I joined as well.....some interesting early season matchups.


Does anyone have any info on TBA?! They are on most of the valley teams non-con schedule. Haven't heard alot about them this year, but they seem to be trying to boost their RPI!

TBA= Tennessee Backwoods Academy

They feature a 4 power forward/ 1 shooting guard lineup. 9 of the 12 players on the team are cousins and the other 3 can't talk. Their home uniforms consist of cut-off jean shorts, no shoes and no shirts. Eddie Sutton has agreed to coach them on the premise that he will be given moonshine in lieu of pay. They play in the 450 seat barn on old man murphy's farm, and their band consists of an old jug player and a fiddle. They can all shoot. Why just last week, Zed, the shooting guard shot himself a bear. I picked them to win most of their games.

Yeah. However the schedule we are picking from can be a little deceiving, As they list Iowa at Bradley for example. On their schedule it appears to be a home game for BU, but we know it's really in South Padre.
