    How to join as solo entry: Send 2,500 betpoints in the 1st post of this thread (click the gold coin at the bottom of this post)

    Max solo entries: 1


    How to join as a team:
    Teams are permitted to split the cost of entry. Respond to the thread after you have sent your percentage of the team. Prizes will be split by percentage of points sent by each team member (example).

    Max team entries per player: 1

    Contest rules

    • Each entry/team captain picks 15 sides from lines posted in an official thread on Wednesday, December 13. Lines will not change. Pick denominations will be: Five 3*'s, Five 2*'s, Five 1*'s.
    • All players MUST enter a 16th and final pick on the Championship game. The pick denomination will be 4*. An official PM collecting the 16th pick will be sent Tuesday, January 2. The final pick is due by Friday January 5 at 11:59PM ET.
    • Along with the 16th pick, players must enter the total # of points scored in the championship to serve as primary tiebreaker. Closest without going over wins. If two or more teams are still tied, the most # of 3* wins is backup tiebreaker. If still tied, prizes split.
    • Pushes will return half of your bet. For example, if USC (-3) wins by 3, and they were a 2* play, you receive 1 star.

    In! Last place last year was worth a cool $500 - not bad. Hopefully this year I can win a prize again...just on the opposite end of the spectrum!

    Also, if someone wants to go 50/50 on another team (or you can take a smaller % if you'd prefer), please message me - would like to join a team as well (you can make the picks also if you want).

    Is it 1250 for a team entry plus 2500 for single? Is bitcoin the only way to receive the prize money?

    In the example above, does a push round up or down, or do I get one-and-a-half points for USC if it was a three-star bet?


    • Pushes will return half of your bet. For example, if USC (-3) wins by 3, and they were a 2* play, you receive 1 star.

    ur right Jaker I just misread in a hurry

    when my 3-man team won in 2012 0r 2013 it was $2500 cash i think PLUS alot of points for 1st place, which even split evenly paid a nice chunk

    Solo entry paid for. I would be open to taking out a 1250 loan to go 50/50 with someone who thinks I could repeat last year's success.
