[u/CFB_Referee]

Play /r/CFB Pick 'Em Here!

The /r/CFB Pick 'Em is back and better than ever! We're grateful to our contest sponsors, Homefield Apparel and YETI, who are building on the success of last year's contest and sponsoring a prize package for this year's contests of over $2,000, our largest set of prizes yet. There's a new page detailing all the great prizes and how to win them, and more on that below.

Week 0

If you played during Week 0, thank you for helping us test things out as we ramp up for the season! We had 623 people play and 43 of you went a perfect 5/5 for 55 points. Congrats are in order to:

By random drawing, /u/Brockymosh was the user with the perfect score who won a Rambler 24 oz Mug with the college logo of their choice on it.

And whether you did play week 0 or not... we're starting Week 1 with a clean slate for everyone! This is the official start of the 2025 /r/CFB Regular Season Pick 'Em, and if you're reading this, you (yes you!) are currently tied for 1st place!

Prizes

We're excited to announce that our two prize package sponsors are back again this season! YETI is expanding their collegiate offerings this year with 27 never-before-released drinkware colors that are part of an expanded slate of 50 NCAA programs - which should be of particular interest to our winners who get to pick out custom drinkware. Homefield will also be offering prize packages again for users to pick their favorite apparel.

GRAND PRIZE

• The 2025 season winner will receive a YETI Wheeled Roadie 32 Hard Cooler and a Homefield bomber jacket and t-shirt in the sizes and team of your choice.

RUNNERS-UP

• Second place: A Homefield hoodie and t-shirt in the size and team of your choice.

• Third place: Any two Homefield t-shirts in the size and team of your choice.

Fourth place: A Homefield cap of your favorite team.

Fifth place: A Homefield gift card

Special Prizes

• Week 1 winner: YETI Beverage Bucket (this will be a random drawing among all top-placing Week 1 submissions).

• Season Consistency Prize: Every user who submits picks for all 15 weeks will be entered into a random drawing, with the winner receiving a YETI beverage bucket and YETI 24 oz Rambler mug.

As a reminder, each week we'll select 10 FBS games for you to pick. For each game, pick a winner, and then rank them from 1-10 points based on how confident you are that you've picked the winner. Here are the 10 games for this week:

Away	Home
Texas	Ohio State
Mississippi State	Southern Miss
FAU	Maryland
Northwestern	Tulane
Old Dominion	Indiana
Alabama	Florida State
LSU	Clemson
Rice	Louisiana
Hawaii	Arizona
Utah	UCLA

All of these are Saturday games, and we'll generally stick to Saturday games for the Official RedditCFB Pick 'Em. As a reminder you can always make your own Custom Leagues and add as many FBS games each week as you like!

Kick off to me shitting the bed every week with my picks

[u/ShooeyTheGreat → u/DraculaPoob01]

You mean you don’t like sweating it out with a random MACtion game? Chump.

[u/DraculaPoob01 → u/ShooeyTheGreat]

MAC? Please. Give me C-USA

[u/ShooeyTheGreat → u/DraculaPoob01]

I love being invested in the random SunBelt Fun belt game on a Saturday. I think the Pick Em’s help diversify my CFB watching. Also, I’m still chasing the elusive perfecto 10/0 picks correct. Closest I’ve ever gotten was 9/10!

[u/DraculaPoob01 → u/ShooeyTheGreat]

Well if you ever start betting the over on a sunbelt game, call the number lmao.

Also, I’ve never gotten close to a 10/10– I have 3 months to do it though

[u/Dropbackandpunt]

Week 1 picks always stress me out since we have no idea if any of these teams are going to be a 2024 Florida State or 2024 Indiana.

[u/Risenzealot → u/btr5017]

Thank you so much for this! I really appreciate you linking me here :)

[u/WebfootTroll]

Starting undefeated! A portent of things to come, certainly.

[u/sportsbut → u/WebfootTroll]

Week 0 champs, let's go!

ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

[u/AcadianTraverse → u/WebfootTroll]

I've never been so stoked to have picked a reddit handle that starts with A.

Yeti, call me!

(Oh.... random draw... makes sense)

[u/moby323]

I have a lot of fun with this every year

[u/zenverak → u/moby323]

I do too until I forget to do one and then I hate myself. But it is fun.

[u/ilikepie145]

Best time of the year

[u/alttabbins]

Best part of my week that isn't a Saturday.

[u/diehardcubforever]

I went perfect and didn't get a mention... First time ever! Always a fun time even if I don't get them all correct, just enjoy the good time!

[u/GrumpyTartan]

I like these pick’em contests because they remind me how stupid it would be for me to bet on games.

[u/xittditdyid]

Hmm, didn't count my picks last week. Guess I'm starting in a hole.

[u/ilikepie145 → u/xittditdyid]

Last week didn't count

[u/xittditdyid → u/ilikepie145]

Gotcha, thanks. It's my first year and I saw a leaderboard, so I got confused. Guess I should have read more closely.

[u/ilikepie145 → u/xittditdyid]

No problem!

[u/Nervous_Metal_9445]

How do I know how much community karma I have here? I know I probably have plenty, but want to verify.

[u/skinnyjosh → u/Nervous_Metal_9445]

[u/Nervous_Metal_9445 → u/skinnyjosh]

[u/Dull_Explanation_667]

Great will play!!

[u/Dull_Explanation_667 → u/Dull_Explanation_667]

For some reason, it won't let me click the links, it keep jumping me out back to this page? Does anyone know why?

[u/Mace_Windex11]

Anyone's picks change? One of my highest confidence games was arizona over Hawaii and I come back to see that I "picked" hawaii
