I know I'm 3 weeks early but pumped to get this contest up and going and since you have to be in at the start no one can say I didn't have time to get in on this. Again starting Week 1 with games associated as Week 0 on the 27th. I will get the Week 2 thread up the next day for the games for the 1st through the 6th.

New this year are tiebreaker points. If your team wins and covers you gain an extra bonus point. If you take a undefeated team who is the underdog you gain the point for them covering plus another bonus point. As the season goes on the number of teams undefeated being a underdog greatly diminish so take advantage while you can.


I will be using ESPN's Lines

Rules/How to Play if you are new:

1. Pick a team you think will win that weeks game. Pick only 1 team per week.
2. Don't pm me the pick, post on here your pick.
3. You can only pick that team ONCE the entire time you are in the game.
4. The goal is to advance and be the last person standing.
5. Only games that have a FBS school facing another FBS school are eligible to be picked.
6. You have up until the start time of the game you picked to switch.
7. If your team loses, you are out for the competition.
8. If you skip a week of picks, you are out.
9. You can switch as many times up until the game you have picked officially starts.
10. If you have questions, pm me
11. Post 2 of the thread will have the possible games you can pick.
12. Post 3 will have each player and their previous week's picks.
13. You can only pick teams that are undefeated (they will be bolded).
14. You can't join in during the middle of the season.
    Please include prior weeks picks with your pick for the week.

Have any questions, pm me or ask in the thread. Thanks!

First, thank Rulzzz, for running the game again. It is more work (and grief) than most recognize. You are the man.

Second, I like what you are trying to do with the tiebreaker points. However, isn't that going to be a lot of work on you to track?

Third, idea for next year: "triple tiebreaker points for picking Iowa State if/when they are ever an undefeated underdog."

 

[CyCrazy]

Man if Utah St losses there won't be many people left.

 

[hunttr82]

Utah State

 

[JP4CY]

Man if Utah St losses there won't be many people left.

That's why I'm rolling with Hawaii.

Go VANDY!

1st I can't believe how long this has been up for you to come in and post. I figured you would have been among the first in.

2nd sure maybe a bit more work but if it rids us of a 8 person tie scenario like last year it's worth it.

3rd I may just do this thing this year because I'm pretty sure we will be underdogs this year.

Utah State may not cover but they should win handily. Utah State has alot of returning players including their qb, are at home and uconn is now a dog **** fball program.

Oh I agree, I picked them as well but it would be funny.

Would make the game easier for me but Utah State is going to be my pick so going out in the first week wouldn't make me happy.

I saw the thread, but hadn't posted. I've posted in other threads (like the Jack Trice Improvements), but I was going to wait to post until I did my whole season prep. However, I've had a few personal things to take care of and have barely even thought about it. Thus, I may just make bandwagon picks this year.
