We had a fun contest last week and four of you beat the SDS roster. Congrats to bcmf42 for winning the $75. Well done. Here’s the top five:
We’re going to be running the contest again this week for the week 5 SEC games. The game works the same where you take $1,000,000 in salary cap and pick your roster for the week.
Picking the roster this week is quite interesting. You can expect a lot of points in the Texas A&M / Arkansas game, but what about Tennessee / Georgia? Want another shoot out? How about Ole Miss / Alabama. Who is ballsy enough to take Bo Wallace as their QB? Extra credit if you go big on Bo.
Here’s my roster:
| Pos | Name | Game | Game Time | Salary | |
| QB | Tyler Wilson | Ark@TexA&M | Sat 12:21pm ET | $185,000 | |

Boom. I love this contest. I might go Georgia across the board this week. Go Dawgs and go my roster. Gonna take the ol’ lady out to some nice wings and cold beer after gettin’ my $75 this week!
thank you for setting this up… great contest. hmm… only 1 of 17 opponents saw value in cobi at $63k last week… let’s see if the price bump to $156k this week attracts some buyers…
Yep it’s all about value. How about Brandon Mitchell at $54k ?
as a fellow football fan i like that idea. as a competitor of yours in the contest may i suggest that javontee herndon at the bargain price of of $144k would better fit your needs this week…
Thanks for sharing!!! I am the only Gamecock fan who didn’t have Conner Shaw last week in the contest… AArgh.
