How about if we can't talk DF2K4 back for the pick-ems...whoever finished either 1st...or last this past year gets to take over running the pick-ems?

I believe I finished first and would be fine with handling the pick em's.

Are we doing pick-ems this year?  DF2K4???

There is a Thursday game this week so picks need to start getting in if we are doing this. 

Hope somebody will take up PICKUMS.  THAT IS THE BEST PART OF THIS MESSAGE BOARD.

I think I will let someone else take the honor over.  Some people around here need more caffiene, or something.  You don't need me to do the pickems. 

:o :o :o  DF2K4 not doing the pick-ems...that just doesn't seem right.

Is there enough interest for me to set up the IIAC group for ESPN's "Pick Em" this season?

Interesting story from the Quad City Times...http://qctimes.com/sports/college/big-10/iowa/article_845882f2-b31e-11df-b09c-001cc4c002e0.html

The Hawkeyes have 22 former QB's on their roster right now.  The theory goes, most high schools will put not just their best athletes at QB, but also their smartest kids.  Iowa will then take a smart, athletic kid and put him at a new position. 

I would think that probably happends at the D3 level quite a bit as well.  Anyone have any stories out there to back that up???

Not sure about the historical events, but Central could potentially line up with 3 on offensive snaps this year if Lackey is at RB and Bandow at receiver as was mentioned in the preview.  If it works for Iowa . . .GO DUTCH.
Central has been doing this for years.  In 1974 when the Dutch won the National Championship, Marc Humphrey, former QB caught a big gain pass to set up the only TD scored in the game.  I think it could just as well be "if it works for the Dutch..."  I will put Central's record for the past 1-4 decades up against Iowa's anytime.

I went ahead and set up a group for us at ESPN's Pick Em.   Each week you will have to pick the winner of the 10 games ESPN posts for the contest.

To join, go to: http://games.espn.go.com/cpickem/en/frontpage

If you aren't already registered, you will need to come up with your User Name and Password.

Once you are registered, our group name is IIAC 2010 ... the password is IIAC Forever.

Good luck.

Thanks KK

When you get a new coach, anything is possible, so I've been told.

+K to everyone for surviving the off-season.  I can't wait for this season to start and I don't know when I have been more optimistic about Central's football team.  Now all I have to do is figure out how to express my excitement and optimism without getting flagged for arrogance.  Is there an emoticon for "I just know Central has a lot of talent coming back and it isn't that I think I am better than anyone or that Central is the only school in Iowa that matters?"  It looks like Saturday should be beautiful and I suspect that the UWOshkosh Titans will be a good test.

Dubuque Telegraph-Herald has their Loras season preview up.

Just an obsevation: For a team not thinking about last year, Loras sure spends a lot of time talking about it.
