All picks will be viewable to the public on Saturday after the 10pm CST deadline. No Thursday picks will be viewable until after the deadline.

7) Selections may NOT be modified. Once a user submits their picks, they are official and they cannot be change. Therefore, make sure the picks you enter are the picks you can live with for the weekend. No changes can be made, once the system accepts your selections, they cannot be changed.

8) Picks must be ranked from 7.0 units (highest rated play) down to 1.0 unit (lowest rated play). Picks will be ranked from highest to lowest units (7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 unit).

9) All plays will be graded per the 11/10 Vegas Rules; -1.10 plays for losses and +1.00 plays for wins. This means a 7-unit play that loses will be graded as -7.70 units. A 7-unit play that wins will be graded as +7.00 units. If a pick pushes, then you will not lose any points, nor will you gain any, you will be given a tie status. The breakdown for plays is as follows:

 
Unit size/ranking Winning play Losing play
7 units +7.00 units -7.70 units
6 units +6.00 units -6.60 units
5 units +5.00 units -5.50 units

The contestant with the highest amount of "units won" at the end of the Regular Season (Week 17) will be declared the winner. Not the overall record or winning percentage.

  • Tie Breaker #1: In case of a tie, the person with the most wins will be declared the winner.
  • Tie Breaker #2: If players have the same amount of wins, then the players will go head to head in Round 1 of the playoffs using 3 picks, instead of 7 picks. The points system will be the same. 3 units, 2 units and 1 unit.
  • Tie Breaker #3: If players are tied after the second tie breaker, then they will explode the prize money.
