Prediction League (Game 19 - Michigan State 1/23/20)

Recommended Posts

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.

Usually there are a few brave souls that post a prediction far in advance of the game.  With MSU on the horizon it looks like everyone is taking a little longer for reflection.  Which fork in the road do you take this time?

This is a tough one for me.... I see a lot of positivity and confidence in these early predictions....

I feel like MSU starts as a 7.5 point favorite in my algorithm..... We are at Home and the Hall should be Rocking for this one +6, we have not played well consistently and we are coming off a road win -3, MSU can score better than anybody we have played to this point and we struggle to score -4, but their defense isn't as good as others we have played (still good) +1

I really want to figure out a reason to predict an IU victory but I can't find one outside of my HEART and GUT.... which we have a lot of in Joey Buckets +3, but not so much anywhere else on the team -5

Archie seems to be walking the walk, based on minutes played recently etc +2

I hope I am wrong again.

IU - 71

MSU - 79
