Here are the rules:

1. This contest is open to registered active posters. If you aren't an active registered poster by now, you'll have to wait until next season.
2. Scoring will be determined by the number of points by which your prediction 'misses' the actual final score plus 10 points if you choose the wrong team to win.
   
   Example 1: Prediction is ND 35, SC 14 --> Actual is ND 28, SC 21
   Points: ND=(35-28)=7, SC=(21-14)=7, 7+7=14 Total Points
   Example 2: Prediction is ND 23, SC 34 --> Actual is ND 24, Southern Cal 23
   Points: ND=(24-23)=1, SC=(34-23)=11, Plus 10 point penalty. 1+11+10=22 Total points.
   
   
3. Deadline for submission is usually Noon Eastern Time the day before the game (in most cases, Friday). There will be no exceptions made. Once the file is cut, we move on to the next week. Keep in mind that, while we try to keep the contest open until Noon, Football Fridays are busy days for us, especially if we're on campus. If the situation warrants, we may have to cut earlier on Friday than Noon. So don't wait until the last minute, get your pick in.
4. If you miss a week, your score will be 100 points for that week. In other words, you better not miss a week if you plan on winning.
5. Miss 3 weeks and you are out.
6. If you choose an opponent nickname, try to keep it tasteful.
7. If you believe there's an error, please click here to send an email so we can discuss the situation.
8. Leaderboard will be available after Week 5 when the herd has been thinned out, so to speak.
