Saturday PickEm Challenge: Week 1 (12/6)

Post by Shine »

It's that time of year again. For the opening week I'm keeping things simple with only a list of games to pick. As usual please use the codes associated with each team. I am open to suggestions for ways to tweak this thing to A)keep more people involved the whole year and B)keep things more competitive. So if anyone has any thoughts please let me know. If nothing else starting next week we'll add back in the 1and1 and 3 point games. Good luck to all.

Wisconsin (WISC) at Marquette (MARQ)
Boston College (BC) at UMass (UMA)
UNLV (UNLV) at Nevada (NEV)
Florida (UF) at Florida St (FSU)
Ohio St (TOSU) vs Notre Dame (ND) -game is in Indianapolis
UAB (UAB) at Cincinnati (UC)
Temple (OWL) at Penn St (PSU)
Duke (DOOK) at Michigan (UM)
Baylor (BAY) at Washington St (WST)
Maryland (MARY) at George Washington (GW)
NC State (NCST) at Davidson (DAVE)
Miami (CANE) at Kentucky (UK)

I like the 1 and 1 and 3 point games...those were clever additions to the game.

For something different, include the conference tournaments or the Big Dance as a championship round. I liked what we sometimes do during the conference tournaments...we just pick a winner in each of the major tournaments before they start. Maybe do like the do with CFB Pick 'Em put emphasis on winning each week and have that play into qualifying for the final round.

Just throwing it out there...
