Ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, children of all ages...the days are starting to get shorter, the temps are starting to get cooler, and BeaverPoke will soon rouse from hibernation and make his first appearance. That means it's time for the 4th annual WyoNation Spread Prediction pool!!!

The rules are simple, every week I will post the match-ups for every Mountain West Conference school as well as a few other noteworthy games from around the country. Your job is to reply with your guesses for which team will win that week's contests and by how many points. You then accrue points based on how far off the actual spread your prediction was.

Example: In week 1, you might pick Wyoming to beat Iowa by 3. If Wyoming wins by 7, you are given 4 points. However, if Iowa were to win by 3, you would get 6 points tacked on to your score. At the end of the week, I'll add up all the points, and the poster with the lowest score is that week's winner!

I'll also keep a running tally over the season and we'll see who will earn the right to join our previous winners: 2014 - TheRealUW; 2015 - JimmyDimes; and 2016 - CowboyNV.

Have a bad week or forget to post your scores?? Do not fear, as at the end of the season I will be dropping the 3 worst weekly scores to determine our champion.

Everyone is welcome to join, and it only takes a few minutes each week to make your picks!

With all that said, welcome to the 2017 college football season and good luck to everyone, but most importantly...GO POKES!!!
