I'm game.

Are there any rules about the number of time a team can be selected?

That brings us to 9.

I was thinking about not being able to repeat a team two times in a row just to make everyone switch it up, but I wasn't sure yet. Things can be ironed out once we have at least 10. Like can you take Cal/Hawaii even though Hawaii plays again in the official "Week 1" and the repeating teams thing.

I think that might make it more intriguing to put a cap on the number of times you can select a team. Maybe at like two or something like that. Because in all honesty, Kansas stands a good chance of getting picked every week once Big 12 play starts. Just my two cents, but feel free to do what you think is best, it's your contest.

I'm honestly open for suggestions. I don't mind people throwing in their 2 cents cuz I came up with this idea today and wanted to throw it out there before it was too late. I think having to pick new teams would make it more interesting and strategy based instead of just relying on Kansas to get their ass kicked, I agree.

Also, another idea, is to maybe have a cap on how many times you pick a team to win and a team to lose.

As an example, last year Clemson beat Appalachian State 41-10, then Appalachian State turned around and beat Old Dominion 49-0. You'd have Appalachian State picked once to win and once to lose. Overall you've picked them twice, but only once in each category. Again just an idea.

Making himself a B12 cheering jersey is my guess

I think that sort of adds to the intrigue. Do you think they'll turn it around after an ass whooping or just lay an egg the next week? Especially with those group of 5 schools. I think the only limit I would want to set is for picking to lose.

For example, did anybody pick FSU to lose to GTech last year? Not many, but it happened and that's the way college football goes. Year 1 might be a little touch and feel but if we get a good group going it could be fun every year for shits and gigs

That works for me for sure. Anything to limit picking the Kansas', Purdue's, New Mexico State's, Idaho's and Eastern Michigan's of the world.

Posting a poll right now with both questions in poll so we don't clutter up the CFB forum

The FSU/Ole Miss game. Should be a good one
It could be a great one. My only worry is how young and thin we are on the offensive line because I know how good that front for FSU is. Any word on who your starting QB is going to be yet?

Your bet is as good as mine. Was in the car for 2 hours today and heard Francois numerous times but that's just radio guys on Sirius XM

Our secondary outside of Tony Conner, Tony Bridges, and Ken Webster is pretty weak but the dline is stacked. I know FSU has a much better Oline and obviously better rb than we do, so it might be a bad day for us rebel fans.

I still think the defenses will keep it close. It's a great opening weekend game, that's for sure
