Prediction League (Game 21 - Minnesota 2/17/21)

[Str8Hoosiers 2,965]

How this works!!!

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.

Minnesota has either won or lost nearly every B1G game by double digits. So that's tricky. 

Other problem? I suck at this.

IU: 75

MN: 63

Usually people do not need to alter my posts to make me look crazy lol!

The Minny lose/win by lopsided scores thing is real:

• Losses: Illinois by 27, Wisky by 12, Mich by 25, Iowa by 15, Mary by 14, Purdoo by 19, Rutg by 4, Mary by 13. Average Minny margin of B1G losses: 16.125 points
• Wins: Iowa by 7, MSU by 25, OSU by 17, Mich by 18, Nebr by 18, Purdoo by 3. Average Minny margin of B1G wins: 14.67

As a comparison, even with the OUS blowout, our average margin of loss is 8.857 (pre-OSU it was 7.17) and our average margin of B1G wins is 5.83.

Well, I turned on my TV last Sunday and did a search for the IU game.  Couldn't find it anywhere.  Then I searched on the Intranet and discovered that I missed the game.  I guess you could say that my interest for this season is starting to decline.  Getting hard to move forward.

I'll take the Hoosiers on WEDNESDAY 75-70.  Just hope it is an enjoyable game.
