    SBR Trivia today
    The correct answer to the 2nd question I got makes NO SENSE:

    Here it is:

    In 1984, in what did a Division 1-A player set a record by achieving a number of 29 in one game?
    • Passing Yards
    • Points Per Game
    • Touchdown Receptions
    • Field Goals
    It says the correct answer is FIELD GOALS.

    There is NO WAY that any player kicked 29 field goals in a single game.

    Now its obviously possible that a college basketball player could have made 29 shots in a basketball game but the other 3 choices referred to passing yards, points per game and TD receptions which all occur in football.

    An absolutely bogus question!!!

    A shot in basketball also referred to as a field goal.

      my problem is, I had to guess at my 2nd question. I really think I put down the correct answer even though it was a complete guess (but I'm not 100%sure I did). When the next screen came up it said I timed out.

        happend to me before as well(or something similar). I pm'd lou.

        Basically, i clicked "answer" like 4 times with 2 seconds left, it kept ticking, hit 0 and i timed out. Havent had a problem like that since though.

        I actually got 125 tonight. 1st 2 were very easy and 3rd was a guess but got it

                All the questions are different, the odds of you getting that question would be incredibly low.

                  I had this one. Has this every actually happened in a game? I assumed they would stop it immediately, but it was after a change of possession.
                  In hockey, when should play stop if multiple pucks are on the ice?

                          Get the violins out for the crybaby.

                          Seems like a fair question to me. That sounds like a pretty memorable stat for any fan that ever heard it.

                          And it's not like it could possibly be either of the last 2, so it's a 50/50 even if you don't know it.

                                Instead of trivia, we should focus on picking WINNING bets. This is a gambling forum, and no one is good at gambling.

                                You know there were 29 field goals in a college game back in 1984.....ok, great.

                                You also just picked the Washington Wizards+16 OVER the Bulls.

                                Focus, people

                                    In 2006, this former Atlanta Falcons safety signed as a free agent with the Carolina Panthers?

                                    a) never heard of you

                                    b) never heard of you

                                    c) never heard of you

                                    d) never heard of you

                                    That's what I get for being greedy and going for the 125pt

                                                What is the second highest PPG average for a Division 1A School in 2000?

                                                        In 1984, in what did a Division 1-A player set a record by achieving a number of 29 in one game?

                                                            I cashed out after q2 today. I always go for #2, and feel lucky if I can narrow it to a 50/50. I've never got #3 correct when trying so I quit trying.
