Some of you might be thinking, "It's not Monday, what is this doing in my inbox?" But don't worry, this is going to be well worth your time.

I am pleased to announce the **2026 College Football Newsletter Survival Pool!** I released the announcement earlier on Instagram and X, but I wanted to send it out to you guys as well.

The game is easy: each week, you pick one team that you think is going to win outright. If they do, you move on. If they don't, thank you for playing, and your season is over. But remember, you can only use a team once, so choose when you use them wisely.

It is a simple, one-pick-a-week entry, and the only rule to be eligible is that you are subscribed to the newsletter (which you guys already should be!). I am using a service called Splash Sports, which makes it super easy. You can create an account and make your picks either on your computer or through their mobile app.

**Just follow the link below to join!**

[Survival Pool Sign Up](https://contests.app.splashsports.com/contest/contest%5F01KZY0BTBD2B5SA5A650RQMGM0?ref=collegefootballnewsletter.com)

If you make it through the entire season still alive, you win! (Of course if there are multiple people that make it through-there will be a tiebreaker to find the ultimate winner).

Now lets talk about what you win. The winner will receive an all inclusive gameday experience which includes attending a college football game with myself in 2027\. If you live no where close to me, we can work out those details...but you got to win first!

I hope you guys enter and try to survive!

Please encourage other friends and family to join, but remind them, they must be subscribed to the newsletter to be eligible for the gameday experience.
