This is simple. Pick who will win, taking into account the spread. You're playing to beat the spread, not the opponent.
Incorrect picks are worth -1 points.
A Draw is worth 0 points.
A correct pick is worth a variable amount of points, depending on the difficulty of the game to predict. The point value will be beside the game listing below.
To enter, you must turn in a COMPLETE listing of who you think will beat the spread. That means you have picks for all games below. If I see you have excluded one or more games, I will treat it as though you failed to enter.
Failure to enter results in an incorrect pick for every game... i.e. -1 for every single game. A hefty penalty.
As usual, a Team Linux score will be randomly thrown out to even it up.
The team with the highest score wins.
Here are the games you must predict the outcome of:
<span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>Spread winners are bolded below</span>
3 pts - Michigan (+4.5) at Ohio State
3 pts - North Carolina (+3.5) at Duke
3 pts - Western Michigan (-2.5) at Central Michigan
3 pts - South Carolina (+4) at Clemson
2 pts - USC (-5.5) at UCLA
2 pts - Washington (+8.5) at Washington State
2 pts - Minnesota (+7) at Wisconsin
2 pts - Oregon (+4.5) at Oregon State
1 pt - BYU (+7.5) at Utah
1 pt - Tennessee (-19) at Vanderbilt
1 pt - Stanford (+11) at California
1 pt - Auburn (+10.5) at Alabama
Final Scores
--------------------
Team Windows
--------------------
- rickheel +8
- emme3334 +8
- NavyDoc69 +10
- Joltin Jacket +5
- nate jonesacc +2
Team Score: +33
---------------
Team Linux
---------------
- calling_the_hogs +10
- 10MAN +14 score randomly thrown out
- NCTrafficMan -12 failed to enter
- Liquid Karma +5
- cant_think_of_a_witty_name +14
- whos_your_dawgy +6
Team Score: +23
Feel free to double check my math... I did so myself and got the same thing, but I may have made a stupid error somewhere.
Team Windows wins.
Do not send any votes in yet. I will let the results pend until Noon EST Tuesday. That should be plenty of time for somebody to find a math error if one exists.
If everybody agrees then, Team Linux vote-offs are due in by 7 PM EST Tuesday.
