2012-2013: NCAA Weekly Pick'em

Re: 2012-2013: NCAA Weekly Pick'em

UncleRay said:
Disregarding number of goals, and using your series and pick example there are 4 outcomes:
Minn in 2
Minn in 3
Bemidji in 3
Bemidji in 2
If you pick Minn in 2, it is my opinion that they are ranked above in how close your pick is to the actual outcome, but they are worth 2, 1, 0, and 1 points going down. In other words, if you pick Minn in 2 (a sweep), a split with Minn actually winning a game is worth fewer points than a Bemidji sweep where Minn doesn't win a game at all. Picking a winner in 3 games gives a good progression of points earned. The solution, in my way of looking at it, is to make every win by the chosen team worth 1 point, and the number of games in the series worth one point.

Then you would get:
Picking MN in 2:
Team/games/FS's points/UR's points
MN/2/2/3
MN/3/1/2
BS/3/0/1
BS/2/1/1
and picking MN in 3:
MN/3/2/3
MN/2/1/2
BS/3/1/2
BS/2/0/0
Adding the kicker that you only get the number-of-games point if your team wins the series would make both progressions go 3, 2, 1, 0.

Either way, I'm coming for darker, and all bear will owe me a beer.

It's easier for my spreadsheet to calculate things my way. :) That's critical when I don't have a ton of extra time. :p:D:D

I was starting to wonder if we were allowed to pick the visiting team.

Re: 2012-2013: NCAA Weekly Pick'em

There seem to be two schools of thought: League rankings and national rankings. I'll take national rankings:

Robert Morris @ Connecticut - RoMo, 3 - 15
Ferris State @ Ohio State - FSU, 3 - 14
Michigan @ Western Michigan - WMU, 3 - 16
St. Lawrence @ Yale - Yale, 2 - 10
New Hampshire @ Providence - UHN, 3 - 16
Merrimack @ Boston University - BU, 2 - 11
Nebraska Omaha @ Minnesota State - MnSt, 3 - 16
Colorado College @ Denver - DU, 2 - 13

There hasn't been a lot of up and down movement in the standings recently. I think that is about to change this weekend with the games and goals in play.
