2014 ATVS - Geaux Show Pick'em Challenge - Week 1

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, Welcome once again to that grand internet tradition, the 8th/9th annual ATVS-Geaux Show Pick'em Challenge. Where YOU, the internet denizen of And The Valley Shook!, can put your powers of prognostication to the test against the best and brightest some guys we found on the internet who spend way more time and effort on this nonsense than you could possibly believe.

If you played last year, you have already likely received an invitation email to this year's pool. For new readers, the signup is simple. CLICK THIS LINK to be taken to our pool provider FunOfficePools.com. Sign up for an acount, then join our pool. This year's password is geauxtigers. Picks will again be against the spread this year. New for 2014, picks are due up until the kickoff of each individual game. Forget about making your picks until halfway through the first block of games? You can still enter a pick for any game that hasn't started yet, right up to the post-midnight kickoff in Hawaii

Continuing last year's tradition, the Weekly winner will be shipped an all-new, 2014 edition of the world-famous ATVS KOOZIE OF POWER (image not yet available) while the GRAND PRIZE for the overall season winner will be gifted this amazing product in the size of their choice.

BEHOLD THE MAGNIFICENCE!

And now, THE PICKS!

SEC Chalk? In week one, HELL YEAH! Funroe lets us all go "ACC can't even beat the Sun Belt" for a week. Personally taking (now Sun Belt member) Appy St and Navy outright for THE GREATEST OPENING WEEKEND IN B1G HISTORY! Okie St over FSU is only a bet against the spread, I figure it will take at least a week for the Jameis Death Star to become fully operational.

If you have any questions about the pool or need help signing up, sound off in the comments.

FIRST PICK IS DUE BEFORE KICKOFF THURSDAY NIGHT!
