2014 SWVA Sports Pick'Em

[Ryan4VT 4,550]

We are getting close to the start of season! Two-a-days are right around the corner, and the season will be here before we know it. With that comes the annual Pick'Em!!! 

 

The format we have used the past 3 years works nicely. Don't have to pick every week to make the playoffs, but still rewards those who are consistent but never get that win (me). 

 

Here are the rules again:

 

1. One point per correct pick

 

2. There will be a Game of the Week (GotW), with 3 points awarded for correctly picking the winner, and an additional 2 points up for grabs if you guess the correct combined score as well. There may be dual GotWs, so there are points to be had here.

 

3. Each weekly winner will auto-qualify for the SWVA Sports Pick'Em Playoffs

 

4. There will be a weekly running total kept to settle the "wild card" spots. This also seeds those who have won a week as well. 

 

5. Tiebreakers are as follows:

     A: Correct GotW pick

     B: Closest to combined score, without going over.

     C: If both go over, closest to the correct score.

     D: If same score is picked, there will be a number picked 1-10. The number will be flowed through a reliable 3rd party poster (GMan), and whoever is closest to that number wins. We've never came down to tiebreaker D, but I guess it's good to have it before it happens. 

 

 

I will post the games for Week 1 on August 25th. 
 

Good luck everyone!!
