CCHA Pick ‘Em 2025-26: Arrivederci Rico!

T

Roll along you BG Warriors!
Welcome Pick ‘Em fans to the 2025-26 rendition of the CCHA Pick ‘Em contest. This year we celebrate/mourn the last year of the Tommies gracing the CCHA with their presence. Good luck to everyone. Here are the particulars:

Click the link, fill out the form (don’t forget your screen name), submit your picks. If you want to change any of your picks, fill out a new form. I will take the last submission as your final answer.

Scoring:
3 points for a win (regulation or NCAA OT)
2 points for a shootout win (CCHA conference games only)
1 point for a shootout loss (CCHA conference games only)
0 points for a loss (regulation or NCAA OT)

For OOC regular season and specific tournament games there will be the option to pick a tie. If the game ends in a tie at the end of the NCAA OT period, 3 points will be awarded. If either team wins, zero points will be awarded.

Periodically there will be a bonus question (or two...) worth 5-10 points. There are also two bonus questions available only in week 1 that will cover the entire CCHA regular season.

Only NCAA-sanctioned games will be counted (no exhibition games).

Playoffs will be mano-a-mano single elimination with seeding based on regular season finish. Playoff participation and seeding will be determined based on the number of participants and overall standings. More on the playoffs later.

Four awards are up for grabs:
o MacNaughton Cup – Regular season champion as determined by total points - Last Year’s Winner: TalonsUpPuckDown
o Mason Cup – Playoff champion - Last Year’s Winner: Icd80
o Bill Beagan Trophy – Highest regular season points percentage (based solely on picks, no bonus) - Last Year’s Winner: TalonsUpPuckDown
o Jeff Sauer Trophy – Most bonus points - Last Year’s Winner: MTUHuskyGold

Hurray!
 
We have two games slated for Sunday afternoon so week 1 results will be posted on Monday. In the meantime, enjoy the form for week 2 and remember there is a Thursday game this week.

Lastly, to keep things interesting, the staff a Pick 'Em headquarters added a mini-bonus for week 2. Picking Ferris State this week in either game will be worth double points (6 points for a win, 6 points for a tie, 0 points for a loss).

We had a big start to the season with three contestants rolling out to a 10-1 mark and capturing week 1 honors. Congratulations to BGHockeyFan94, Puckdude40, and Xelraz who start us off by posting a whopping 30 points each. Stick taps to Footballguy51, MTUHuskyGold, Puckdude40, and BGHockeyFan94 who were the only contestants to correctly pick Michigan Tech to upset Minnesota on Saturday. Jeers go to 4 contestants who overestimated the Brett Riley factor and picked up zero points when Ferris failed to record so much as a tie against Miami (TUPD is one of these fine folks).

There are a couple of reminders. First, picking Ferris this week in either game against Western Michigan will be worth double points (6 points for a win, 6 points for a tie, 0 points for a loss). Second, the first Ferris/Western game is on Thursday so be sure to get those picks in early.
