Everybody who wants in posts up $100 and the sponsor will match 25% of the total pot (with no rollover)

Would you guys be interested in something like this?

Last man standing type of comp Ill?

I'm still working on a format, but I plan on paying out three spots.

[Razz]

Here's a suggestion that a group of people I know do every year. For each bowl game, you pick the team to win the game SU. Each win is worth 2 points, with bonus points as follows:

spread of less than 3 - no bonus points
3-4 point dog = +1
4.5-6 point dog = +2
6.5-9.5 point dog = +3
10+ point dog = +4

I guess the downside is you would have to post the lines for all the games on Dec. 21, or whatever.
They could be posted something like this, I guess:

USC -7 (2 points)
Texas +7 (5 points)

Pretty much regardless of how you do the contest, I will join.

I really like your idea Razz. I think I might use that concept.

What do you guys think?

[Illusion]

So, how about it fellas. Does this sound like a good idea? I need to know within the next few days if there will be any interest in a premium contest.

I like the contest but not by any of the formats mentioned. How bout something simpler like you get 10 picks up to a certain date and if any one's tied you go to a playoff for the remaining games.

The format is still up for discussion. It seems like you guys have alot of good ideas and I am racking my brain to come up with a fair and fun contest. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[BadAzz]

I will bring my Finnish "expertise" in if allowed.

i would do it, I have done this with the format of each game you get right you get the bowl purse, but that might weight the BCS too much for most peoples liking

razz, that will sure make things interesting down the streach, thats for sure. needless to say, i like the idea.

Here's the format we will use if there's enough interest:

Each player will start with 100 units

Players must play 18 out of the 28 bowl games or they will be disqualified

Players may risk 1-5 units on each game

Players must use lines posted

Sides only

Tie breaker will be total points scored in the Rose Bowl

No editing your post

Top three unit balances cash

ill play
