Welcome to the 2018 NCAA Football Survival Pool!
Simplified, you pick a college football team.  If that team wins first week, you advance to the next week.  Lather, Rinse, Repeat.  Last man standing wins Mucho Cash and prizes!!
Not really, there are no cash and prizes.
Rules as follows:

1) Pick one college FBS team per week.  (Formerly known as Division 1)
2) The team you pick MUST BE UNDEFEATED AND PLAYING THIS WEEK.
3) Once you pick a team you MAY NOT PICK THEM AGAIN.
4) If your pick loses you're out. You only advance to the next week if your pick wins.
5) If you fail to pick in a given week, you're out.
6) Last player standing wins.
7) Picks must be posted in that week's thread.
8) If all the undefeated teams lose in a given week or no survivors can advance to the next week there is no tie breaker. If there is a tie, then I win.
9) Each succeeding week post your pick for that week as well as those of your previous picks.
Example:
Week 1: Penn State
Week 2: Clemson
Week 3: South Carolina
Week 4: Indiana

10) If you change a pick, don’t make a change in the original post just make a new post. I use the last post you make for your pick.
11) Be very clear with your pick. Follow the name format of ESPN Conference Standings
(i.e. OSU could be Ohio St., Oklahoma State, or Oregon State)
12) Schedule weeks are per ESPN. As moderator of the pool I will settle all disputes.
13) Keeping up with your picks is part of the game.  If someone picks a team that has a loss or is not playing that week, don't feel it is your civic duty to point out the error of their ways.
14) Your selection must be recorded in thread before your game kicks off.

Week 1 starts Saturday, August 25, and runs through Monday, September 3rd.  If you pick a team that plays twice in that time frame, you are picking their first game.
Good Luck and start picking!

Post your Week 1 picks in this thread.

This game closes to new players when the last game of week #1 kicks off.  Give it a try!

Last chance, Arfland!  You've got till 7:05 central tonight to pick the last game in week 1.  Week 2 only takes the survivors from week 1.
