I know the game is over but I predict a 35-10 win for BYU. If we hadn't given the ball back with penalties when we took it from them, I would have been wrong.

The scoring for the prediction game shows Connecticut having more sacks. Final box score shows BYU having more.

Apologies, I've corrected it. I got the sack numbers for the game right after it finished from Yahoo sports and either they had it backwards or I dyslexia'd it. Either way, it's fixed now.

For future consideration. I'd like to see points awarded for spread. We get points for predicting the score of each team individually. It wouldn't even require having to add a new field, just award up to 10 points for having the point differential right.

So you're saying that if someone predicted 35-10 or 25-0 or 45-20 as the score they'd get 10 points for having a 25 point spread, right?

Correct. So by picking 31-6 I would get (6+6+10) 22 points and someone that picked 14-10 would get (0+10+0) 10 points. Seems a little more fair than me getting 12 and them getting 10 when 31-6 is a much better pick than 14-10. Don't you think?

I'm open to the idea, but I've got to hear demand from others as well to take the time to add that.

Demand! Haha.



I wouldn't want it as a replacement, just as an addition.

In one picture Sno has out-rivaled half the Econ 101 professors out there. "Demand is infinite, it is the supply that matters" to quote Peter Schiff.



I am also for the spread point calculation, but not if it requires an inordinate amount of work... I mean, you ARE working for peanuts, so...

Either way is fine.

For what it's worth, I like it the way it is.
