Re: 2014-2015: NCAA Weekly Pick'em

I will have the standings and Week 14 Pick'em up later today, but just thought I'd post a quick update about the weekend. We didn't do all that great, going a combined 51.45%. That drops our Overall Pick % down to 58.22%. The best predictors this week were SweeneyHawksHockey and irishstate, who each went a strong 10-4-1 on the weekend. Pump It Up correctly predicted that there would be 142 goals scored in NCAA play on Saturday, and several others earned bonus points as well.

Re: 2014-2015: NCAA Weekly Pick'em

WEEK 15 PICKEM!

Deadline: Friday, January 30, 7:00pm Eastern (drop of puck for first game)
Reminder: Do not pick ties. Going forward, anyone who picks a tie will automatically lose 3 points regardless of the outcome (for those who pick a winner in the game, ties result in 1.5 points awarded).

FRIDAY:
Minnesota Duluth @ Denver –
Bowling Green @ Bemidji State –
Michigan vs. Michigan State –
Niagara @ Holy Cross –
Providence @ Boston College –
Rensselaer @ Dartmouth –

SATURDAY:
North Dakota @ Nebraska Omaha –
Alaska Anchorage @ Northern Michigan –
Minnesota @ Wisconsin –
Vermont vs. Penn State –
Robert Morris @ Air Force –
Quinnipiac @ Yale –
St. Cloud State @ Colorado College –

MONDAY:
Harvard vs. Boston University –
Northeastern vs. Boston College –

BONUS: Time* of Game Winning Goal scored in Princeton @ Brown game on Saturday -

Scoring: 3 points awarded for correctly predicting the winner of each game. 1.5 points awarded for a game ending in a tie (unless you predict a tie, then you lose 3 points...don't pick ties).
Bonus Scoring: 20 points for correctly answering the bonus. Then 10 points after that, and subtract 0.5 points for each half minute away from correct answer until 0 (you will not go into the negative)**.

*Please use overall game time. For example, if you believe the game winner will be scored exactly 14 minutes into the second period (i.e. 6:00 left on the clock in the 2nd), you would guess 34:00. If you believe the game winner will be scored 21 seconds into overtime, you would guess 60:21.

**I will calculate the difference between the actual game winner and your prediction. If you are within 30 seconds, you will receive 10 points. Here is the complete table:
00:00 (exactly correct) - 20 points
00:01-00:30 - 10 points
00:31-01:00 - 9.5 points
01:01-01:30 - 9 points
01:31-02:00 - 8.5 points
02:01-02:30 - 8 points
02:31-03:00 - 7.5 points
03:01-03:30 - 7 points
03:31-04:00 - 6.5 points
04:01-04:30 - 6 points
04:31-05:00 - 5.5 points
05:01-05:30 - 5 points
05:31-06:00 - 4.5 points
06:01-06:30 - 4 points
06:31-07:00 - 3.5 points
07:01-07:30 - 3 points
07:31-08:00 - 2.5 points
08:01-08:30 - 2 points
08:31-09:00 - 1.5 points
09:01-09:30 - 1 point
09:31-10:00 - 0.5 points
10:01+ - 0 points

So, if you guess 33:19 and the actual game winner is scored at 37:36, the difference is 04:17. You would earn 6 bonus points.

In the event of a tie, there will be no bonus.
