The Triangle is not going to have a better Saturday for football than this one. The only way to make it better? The Pick Six.

What you don't know what the world famous Pick Six is? Team ACC Now, Caulton Tudor and Joe Giglio (me), pick six winners (straight up).

Big games on the Pick Six card this week for guest picker Patrick Hewett, an ECU grad student. He'll try to beat Team ACC Now (Caulton Tudor and Joe Giglio).

Doug Lynn tied Caulton Tudor with a 4-2 record last week but since Doug was the original guest picker, he gets the dance floor to himself (as promised if you outpick the pickers, you get to speak your piece in this space).

Here's what Doug, an N.C. State fan, has to say:

After Week 1 of the Pick Six Contest, the e-mail inbox was flooded with would-be contestants. That's because Caulton Tudor went 3-3 and I went, ahem, 2-4.

To review, we'll pick six college football games (straight up) each Thursday. If you'd like to be a guest picker, e-mail jp.giglio@newsobserver.com and tell me why. I will arbitrarily pick the picker. If you outpick both Tudor and me, you get to use this space as you wish — plug your web site, tell the world how great your team is, etc. — some restrictions apply.

This week's guest picker is Doug Lynn, who works for N.C. State and is a proud Wolfpacker. He even admits this after the South Carolina game, so he's a true fan.

On with the games:

Football season starts tonight. Finally.

(Programming note: We'll be in Columbia tonight, check ACC Now during and after the game for full coverage.)

To kick off the new season we'll start a new feature. Columnist Caulton Tudor picks selected games in the print edition every week. In addition, Tudor and J.P. Giglio will pick six games each week on ACC Now.
