Adding a "Game of the Year"

Post by dealer4014 »

I’ve been noticing that we’ve had some really good games the first 4 weeks and got me to thinking if we should/could add something to the Year End Awards for “Game of the Year”.

I know I probably missed a couple but here are some of the games that have stood out…

Wk1: Kansas / UCLA
Wk2: South Carolina / Georgia
Wk2. Oklahoma / Arizona
Wk2: Utah / UNLV
Wk4: Arizona / Cal
Wk4: Oklahoma / Boise St
Wk4: North Carolina / Nebraska

Maybe something like this has already been discussed about adding, so I apologize if it has.

Thoughts???

Would be interesting to have the two teams or coaches who win the National championship play to open up the new season. then maybe the two lowest teams can play as well.

It would be possible, but only if the game has a good write up and some videos to go with it.

it has been done before, but by each of them scheduling each other OOC. Tough to force someone into a game when all the others get to pick the full OOC for the team

Marshall vs. USC!!!

But I think this would be a pretty cool feature, again, if they had a quality write-up and/or videos.

yeah, we stopped the kickoff classic after me and Weasel had our game between Tulane and Michigan State.

I had my greatest game of the NDL ever in the opening round of the Cup, a 12-7 loss at Texas.
