    I am sort of stunned that entry is basically a complete non factor only 5-0 3* entry, all the points are huge not just those 3*

          I cant wait to see if I have a chance at a prize. I went ahead and went AGAINST who I think will cover the game. But the problem is that I believe that most others were going to be on that pick, so I took the pick that I thought that others would not take, If somehow Alabama wwins by exactly 7 then anyone at 19 points or below is out of it

              So you took Clemson?

                I took Alabama since I figured that most would take Clemson since the line is actually +6.5


                My tiebreaker sucks though. I didn't read the again until after I picked. I should have picked 7-10 points lower

                  And I took Clemson figuring that most would take Alabama since they are Alabama.

                  I guess maybe one of us will be right. Or could be healthy split.

                    I went with Alabama, too. I went with the PO69 logic, thinking people would happily take that stale line and grab the Tigers.

                      Yes Giant. I only took Alabama because i am at 19 points now. I needed to make sure that at 2 guys above 19 took the opposite of me. Had i been at 21 or above, then the obvious choice would have been Clemson. For instance i would bet my house on the fact that kidkong took Clemson.

                        Hi Guys,

                        The 4* picks is added to the original spreadsheet.

                        Good luck to all in the championship game!

                          Well more of the guys above me took Alabama than I thought would.


                          But if Alabama wins BY MORE than 7, then I finish in 6th or 7th or 8th. That would be a tough bubble boy scenario. I need 47 points or over

                              Need Clemson with:
                              47+ pts = 2nd place
                              45/46 pts = 5th place
                              24-44 points = 4th/5th tie
                              under 24 = 3rd/4th tie

                                        Arizona State killed me from being at 21 points! Also trytrytry won the opposite pick as a 3 unit play. That game really cost me some money.



                                        But let me see if I understand the tiebreaking procedures. First tie is the score. Lets say that the final score is 10-0. Does that mean that then we go by most wins as 3 unit plays?

                                              So deemer, you lose to toga if the total in the game finishes at less than 50 and more than 57. You are looking at 7th place if Clemson wins unless you hit that small range in the total

                                                    Are you sure? Rule says:

                                                    • 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.


                                                    So, if everyone went over it does not matter who is closest. I guess PO69 is right, and would go to 3* wins. Could any official make it clear?

                                                        It sounds like you guys understand just fine. The tiebreaker rule specifically says closest without going over. If everyone goes over, the next tiebreaker is listed, the most # of 3* wins. Then it goes on to say if still tied, prizes split.

                                                              Right now we would all tie for 6th and 7th ifffffffffffffff Alabama covers.

                                                              6th place would win 20k points
                                                              7th place would win 10k points
                                                              8th nada


                                                              How about we take 2000 points away from 7th place and give it to 8th?


                                                              Then 6th gets 20k, 7th gets 8k and 8th gets 2k.
