With just 5 days before the start of the season we are all pulling our hair out in eager anticipation. It also means we are coming close to the deadline to sign up for College Pick'em. The 1st group filled up pretty fast but don't worry, there's a second one for you slackers:

Here's the rules. We are picking against the spread (which means you'll have to actually think). The games will be every SEC game for that week and the Yahoo default games.
To make it more enjoyable, and just in case the 2nd group doesn't get full, I'll just combine both groups scores and we'll just have an overall winner each week. Hopefully both groups will be picking the same games of course. But it shouldn't matter since we are picking every SEC game of the week and the only ones that might be different will be the Yahoo Default games.
The 1st set of picks will be available I believe tomorrow so if you've already signed up be looking for that. I plan on locking the 2nd group sometime before the games Thursday night! So you better hurry up! And as usual, let me know in the comments if you've signed up.
Lets get it on!
** UPDATE: The lines are out guys and gals. GO MAKE YOUR PICKS!

To worry is pointless, if you can change something for the better than naturally you will.
If you can’t change the situation, than its pointless to worry about it anyway.
you might want to wait till the lines are listed...
Since we are picking against the spread and not straight up, you’ll have to use those to make accurate picks. And the lines will change throughout the week so id check back a day or two before the games to make sure they haven’t changed too much.

So,
what your saying is the lines aren’t listed yet? I’m in the first group. I went to make my picks and it looks like it’s a straight up pick’em. Any word on when the lines come out?
Hold my beer and watch this.
yeah we are playin by the spread.
More than likely they won’t be posted till tomorrow or even later.
Woops….as soon as i say that i just checked and the point spread is up! Id go and make sure your picks are right!

yeah, yeah, yeah....
damn skippy there up!!

lines are out now
a lot of off lines as usual for the first week.
My picks are in
This was rough. There were a lot of tough decisions. I’ll have to check back in later in the week to see if I want to keep them depending on changes in the lines.

Some people say "If you can't beat them, join them". I say "If you can't beat them, beat them", because they will be expecting you to join them, so you will have the element of surprise.

Now then...
I remember that game. That only problem is that it needed to be screwed to the table top.

How can I bet against the Tide?
Really 39 points, the Nicktator will not run up the score by that much, He is a sportsman contrary to the Barns belief. I know we could run up the score that much but then again we are not Florida. We have class. However, either way, I’m getting a bottle of windshield washer fluid. I’m going to sleep on my picks and get them in tomorrow. I must have my football sleep to pick clearly.
I have a question.
If we pick early in the week and then the line changes afterward, do we get the line that we picked? Or does it use the updated line?
it uses the "final" spread..
how did y’all do in week one? I checked this morning and was 1st and then this afternooon had been taken over, by a late point?? Hanging chad on the vote?
