New NFL Point Spread Pool - Get your picks in!
« on: October 18, 2012, 02:48:46 PM »
Gonna start up a new NFL point spread pool.  Here's how it works:

You select one team this week and you are awarded the number of points in which that team covers the spread.  For instance, if the Packers are favored by 7 and they win by 10, the people picking them are awarded 3 points.  If you picked the Lions and they are 5 point underdogs and they win by 3, then you are awarded 8 points.  You can be awarded negative points if your team does not cover the spread.

The person that has the highest point total after week 12 will be declared the winner.  Tie-breaker will be determined by the person obtaining the highest one week score.  If the tie is not broken, then we go to the second highest one week score, etc.

The prize for this game will be $10 worth of pick4 tickets at your track of choice.

Picks are due by noon Central Time on Sunday.  Tonight's game is ineligible due to timing.  You may pick the same team more than once throughout the duration of this game.

The lines for this week are locked as follows:

Date & Time Favorite Spread Underdog
10/21 1:00 ET At Buffalo -3.5 Tennessee
10/21 1:00 ET At Minnesota -6.5 Arizona
10/21 1:00 ET At Indianapolis -2.5 Cleveland
10/21 1:00 ET At Houston -6.5 Baltimore
10/21 1:00 ET Green Bay -5.5 At St. Louis

Taking the Cincinnati Bungals

Hopefully Ben's ankle is more sore than they are saying.

For my fantasy football, I needed a running back this week ---- so I took B Batch for the Steelers --- give him the ball Ben

Houston for me please  thumbsup

the packers

Sorry Tross, I don't like your Pack this week. All the money is on them this week (currently 94% using the spread and 86% ML) after that huge win in Houston. They are also playing their 3rd straight road game. They lost in a dome two weeks back to a young Indy team. This week GB is playing in a dome against a young Rams team that is 3-0 at home. That 5.5 point spread is a classic sucker number to get people to lay the number since you'll win on a 6 pt win or better. Betting psychology. Despite all the action on GB the books still haven't moved off the 5.5 number.

You can thank me when your Packers win by 24  idunno
