2018 Big Ten Elimination Pool - Week 5
« on: September 25, 2018, 08:43:58 AM »
Everyone knows the rules by now right?

  • You pick one Big Ten team to win each week, straight up.
  • You cannot pick a team playing an FCS opponent (although that might not be an issue this year?)
  • You cannot pick a team twice over the course of the season
  • If you get wrong wrong, you are out.
  • If you miss a pick, you are out.
  • If everyone is eliminated in the same week, you stay in, but you DO NOT get that pick back.  However if someone is eliminated in that week by failing to make a pick, they do not rejoin.
  • There are 14 teams, and 13 weeks, so if needed, the Big Ten CCG will be Week 14.
  • Picks must be posted prior to kick time listed.
Any questions, let me know.

  • Week 1 - 27 entrants, 0 eliminations
  • Week 2 - 27 entrants, 19 eliminations (17-Purdue, 2-no pick)
  • Week 3 - 8 entrants, 1 elimination (1-no pick)
  • Week 4 - 7 entrants, 0 eliminations
  • Week 5 - 7 entrants

WEEK 5 SCHEDULE
GAME-KICK TIME

Ah, I never accounted for the fact that it's possible that at some point you can get eliminated because the only teams you have left are on IDLE weeks. Has that happened before? Ha, that's a higher level of prep than I've been up to.

No, because there are no bye weeks at the end of the season.  Every team but Indiana has their bye before the end of October, and the Hoosiers have theirs that first weekend in November.  So the final 3 weeks have now byes.
Now back in the old 11 team days, that would have been something to consider.  I don't remember the first year I did this, but I recall setting it up from the law school library in between periods, so I'm going to say 2008.  So it definitely COULD have been a thing, but I don't recall it ever being an issue.
