1. Predict the Kentucky margin of victory. If you believe that Kentucky will lose, make sure that you make it clearly known with a -- [minus sign], or something else.

2. Predict the game high scorer, AND the total number of points he will score in the game. NOTE--it does not have to be a Kentucky player for this KSR point.

3. Predict UK's leading percentage FG shooter for the game (minimum 3 attempts), and what percentage he shoots for the game (example, Polson, 80%).

TB: Total number of floor slaps Duke will have....nah, we won't go there. Predict whether Duke's 2-pt FG percentage or 3-pt FG percentage will be better, and by how much (example: they shoot 45% from 2-pt range, 34% from 3-pt range, you'd say 2pt FG, +11%).

Good luck!

Nobody will believe me, but I "posted" Duke wins by 8, and my wireless crashed. Think I would've lost tiebreakers and such, though.

I vote you take the point for all of your hard work on this game and all of the other perks you provide for us.:sHa_clap2:

No, no, no. I try to win, but I'd rather others win, if that makes any sense at all. I just like to play and see how close I can get. Even when I do well, everbody seems to beat me anyway. I have more fun grading it and keeping up with it!

Winner this week is.....hang on.

First KSR point goes to both UKFlounder and lfbj00, who were all over it with Duke by 6.

Second KSR point goes unclaimed--Duke's Seth Curry was game-high with 23 points.

Third KSR point was UK best shooter on the day. Thought Cauley-Stein might have a shot with 2-3 shooting, but oh, no--the beast, Alex Poythress, took it with 75% shooting on 9-12 shooting. What a game! Krank nailed it with Poythress, 70.5%--terrific pick!

So we have a 3-way tie. Tiebreaker was whether 2-pt FGs or 3-pt FGs percentage would be higher for Duke--turns out, almost identical, with 2-pt FG percentage nipping 3-pt FG percentage by a scant 1.2%

I'm having to do a little "defining" here, but I'm going to go with you have to select which one "wins" first, then be closest.

Here we have

UKFlounder chose 3-pt FGs as 5% higher than 2-pts. So with my definition, he didn't get the first one right (don't hurt me, Flounder!)

lfbj00 chose 2-pt FGs as 10% higher
Krank chose 2-pt FGs as 13.5% higher

So the winner is.....lfbj00, with an asterisk to UKFlounder, who was "closer" to percentages, but didn't get the right one first. Gonna make you earn it "clean," UKFlounder.

Is there a "just missed" Hall of Almost Fame list that prominently features records such as "fourth in a three way tie for second", etal?

I'm asking for someone else... yeah, a... friend, yeah, that's it, THAAAAAT's the ticket.

lol--Krank, you should've jumped in today with blueboss. I screwed up, failed to get a game going. My new rule is that any of the normal "players" can automatically start the game themselves if I haven't put it up within 6 hours of gametime. That gives me plenty of time to get off my rear and do it, but enough time for people to see it and play if I haven't.
