Welcome to Capping The Game 2023/2024 Underdog Contest!
This will be a season long contest that will be based solely on underdogs.
Goal:
*To advance to the Underdog Playoffs!
*Top 7(and ties) will advance to the Playoffs
How Does the Contest Work?
*You will pick 3 underdogs/week from the list given to you by contest administrators in the weekly thread. Lines WILL be PROVIDED from BOVADA
*Only wins will be used. Losses/ties will be considered as 0 points.
When Does the Contest Start and When Does it End?
*The Contest will start with the first FULL week (Thursday, August 31st)
*Entries will be taken until 7pm Saturday, October 21st
*Regular Season ends Saturday, November 25th
*Playoffs Start the following week with Championship Week and run through bowl season
So, What are the Rules?
*You must make exactly 3 picks in any given week. Any more or less and you are graded as having not played that week.
*You must make at minimum 18 picks for the entirety of the contest.
*The most picks you can make are 39 total (that is 3 picks for all 13 weeks)
Tell me about the Scoring!
*Here is an example entry for one week
Tennessee +235
UCLA +420
Colorado St +655
The above results see a Tennessee loss, an UCLA win and a Colorado State loss...
Your point total for the week = 420 points
Alright, can you explain this contest for me in simple terms?
Sure, this is a regular season long contest of playing simply underdogs. We will then take our top 7 finishers (and any ties) to a playoff round that consists of Championship Week and the Bowl Season. That will crown our winners!
Okay, so how does the playoff round work?
Easy. The members that advance to the playoff round will have NINE selections to use throughout championship week and the Bowl games. They may use them as they wish and are NOT required to use all selections but are encouraged to do so. Tiebreakers will be implemented via the National Championship Game if needed.
