Week 1 Picks for Games That Matter:
Florida over Miami in a Florida Cup game for the Seminole War Canoe (August 24)* Utah over BYU in the Holy War (Thursday)** Colorado over Colorado State in the Rocky Mountain Showdown for the Centennial Cup Memphis over Ole Miss in the Mid-South Rivalry N.C. State over East Carolina for the Victory Barrel Oregon over Auburn Delaware over Delaware State in the Route 1 Rivalry for the First State Cup Prairie View A&M over Texas Southern in the Labor Day Classic for the Durley-Nicks Trophy
*Although many American-Indian-themed CFB trophies have been officially retired as relics of an older historical era, it appears the canoe simply fell out of use because: 1) UF and Miami didn't play each other between 1987 and 2001; and 2) neither school liked to make space for a six-foot canoe carved from a giant cypress tree in its trophy room.
**Normally, this would also be a Beehive Boot game, but the Boot will likely not be awarded in 2019 due to Utah not scheduling Utah State.

What's funny about this is that apparently some people who were polled actually thought that Maryland would retain potential bowl eligibility by defeating Ohio State. Bwa ha ha ha.
