Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted August 7, 2013 Ladies and Gents, I took part in something last year that was simply fantastic. It was an ACC Survivor Pick'Em. For those of you who may not know how an ACC Survivor Pick'Em works, here's how: (1) You pick 1 ACC team to win its game each week. For example, if I pick UNC in Week 1, UNC must beat USC-East for me to advance. (2) You are not allowed to pick the same ACC team twice. For example, if I pick UNC in Week 1, I cannot pick them again. (3) There are 14 weeks to the college football regular season. There are 14 ACC teams. Ergo, 1 team per week. (4) The winner is the last one standing, be it in Week 3 or Week 14. (5) If more than 1 person makes it through Week 14 (NGTH), we pick a winner + score of the ACC Championship. Closest wins. (6) All picks must be submitted before the first ACC team plays its weekly game. EXAMPLE: If Miami plays on Tuesday, you have until game time on TUESDAY to pick, even if you don't intend to pick Miami. (7) Week 1 runs through the games on Labor Day. The winner gets pride. If people would like to do this, I would be happy to oversee it. I might even write up a funny report every week for it. What say you, O Board?

There is an ACC vs. ACC game every week starting with week 2. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
