Pick the Score - Miami

[SkyWalker]

It's November and time for Xavier Basketball.

Anyone up for another season of Pick the Score?

Scoring Rules
Net the difference from the actual Xavier score and your predicted Xavier score.
Net the difference from the opponent score and your predicted opponent score.
Add these two numbers together and subtract from 100.
Award a 5 point bonus for picking the winning team.
Award a 25 point bonus for predicting both the winner and the exact score of the game.

Scoring Example
You pick Xavier to beat Miami 74-52
Xavier wins 69-54
74-69 = 5 (Xavier component)
54-52 = 2 (Miami component)
5+2 = 7 (Sum both components)
100 – 7 = 93 (Subtract from 100)
93 + 5 (Add winning team bonus) = 98 (Your score)

There will be a Top 10 recap for each game, Year-to Date totals for the entire season and a separate Big East total for conference opponents.

Note: It does say conference opponents. If the event that Xavier was to play a Big East opponent in any tournament, that game will be counted in the Big East scoring.

This contest is for amusement only.

And I'm back. Missed you all.

The rules changes are designed to stop the downward spiral of scoring and the physical play. I'm guessing lots of fouls and free throw shooting

Cut it a little close. Actually got it in just as we walked into Cintas. Guess there's a target on my back this year ;)
