OC College Basketball Pick'Em Rules & Week 1 Games

• Azubuike24

  

  I'll keep things pretty simple this season. Follow the simple rules below and we should be good to go.
  
  1. There will be 11 weeks. Each week, games will be posted in here. There will be a total of 14-18 games per week worth a total of 15-20 points. Weeks where there are 14 games, 1 game will be a ***key game*** and worth 2 points. In a few selected weeks, there will be 18 games and 2 ***key games*** for a weekly total of 20 points.
  
  2. All picks are due before the tip-off of each game. This means if you miss a game or 2, you get a loss for that week. Any game unpicked or after the tip-off will count against you. To avoid this, either pick all games before the first game of the week or don't participate in the week at all.
  
  3. No penalties will be accrued for not participating in a week, but the overall winner will be required to participate in 8 of the 11 weeks.
  
  To make a submission for that week, please copy and past my set of games and remove the "loser" from the set. This makes it very easy to score and grade. This is pretty self-explanatory and we've been doing this for 8 years. I'm sure those who participate will have done it before, so there won't need to be any hand-holding.
