2018 Field Goal Frenzy Game -- New, with a twist
This year we're going to play it a little different. We're going to take all games in which the line is a field goal or less, and you will select only ONE team that you think will win.
You get 1 point for each correct weekly pick.
If you pick an underdog to win, and they win, you get a bonus 0.2 points.
Most points in a week = 1.2 points.
This week's field goal frenzy options:
THURSDAY, AUGUST 30
PURDUE -3.00 Northwestern
SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1
Auburn -3.00 Washington (Atlanta)
MIAMI (O) -2.50 Marshall
Michigan -1.50 NOTRE DAME
Texas Tech (Houston) -2.00 Mississippi
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 2
Miami (FLA) -3.00 Louisiana State (Arlington)
Remember, just pick ONE game. We'll see if you were right, and if so, you get +1. If you picked the underdog, and they won, you get +1.2 total points.
Good luck.

“Before I leave I’d like to see our politics begin to return to the purposes and practices that distinguish our history from the history of other nations,
“I would like to see us recover our sense that we are more alike than different. We are citizens of a republic made of shared ideals forged in a new world to replace the tribal enmities that tormented the old one. Even in times of political turmoil such as these, we share that awesome heritage and the responsibility to embrace it.”

Thanks, Catfan73. I like it, too. I will, most definitely, fool myself into thinking I can figure out one game each week.

These bookies know what they are doing. Purdue was giving 3 to NW. NW won by 4.

Didn't they "miss" that by 7? The wrong team won. Originally Posted by VirginiaCat

Wow. Every player has won their pick. Every. Single. One.
Oops.
Except one.
I should just stay out of the game and grade it each week.

Unbelievable. Every single player got their pick right, including many underdogs.
Well, every single player except one.
