Prediction League (Exhibition Game 1 - Marian 10/28/17)

[Str8Hoosiers 2,965]

How does this work?

Each week I will create Prediction League threads for the weeks game(s).

It's a simple concept:

Each week you start with 100 points (only if a prediction is made, otherwise 0 points for the week)
+25 PTs if you guess the winner
-25 PTs if you pick the loser
+10 PTs if guess IU score correctly
+10 PTs if guess Opponent score correct
-The # of points different between the actual and predicted score of IU (over/under doesn't matter)
-The # of points different between the actual and predicted score of opponent (over/under doesn't matter)

*** Reminder if you post a prediction and want to change it, please just POST a NEW Prediction, do not edit a prior post as I may miss those edits.

The person with the most points (MINUS 2 LOWEST GAMES) at the end of the season wins.

Are these exhibition games for fun or do they actually count?

I was thinking we will go ahead and count them.... unless anybody has any objections????

Last year we did NOT do the Exhibition games but did count the postseason games.... so I am fine with whatever the majority wants.

I'll give you my thoughts after I see how I do in the Marian game!

Personally, I am against it since exhibitions are more like a practice and the coaching staff is just trying to get a feel for the team. Kind of like preseason football, the game results don’t really matter.

I’m a team player so I will be happy with whatever we do.

Democracy at it's finest!

If you DO want the Exhibition games to count in our League/Contest LIKE this post.

If you DO NOT want the Exhibition games to count in our League/Contest SAD this post.

Whichever has more by the time this post locks will be the determination!

Fair enough?

I voted for not counting them because of having a new coach with players in a new season I have no idea how we will look. lol
