2018 Big Ten Elimination Pool - Week 4
« on: September 18, 2018, 08:00:17 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

WEEK 4 SCHEDULE

Minnesota at MarylandNOON
Nebraska at MichiganNOON

Tulane at Ohio State3:30
Michigan State at Indiana7:30

FWIW, I generally keep picking to see how I WOULD have done, and I've now been eliminated in back to back weeks after taking Northwestern last week.

I'm assuming the missing Indiana column is just because we all picked Indiana already...?

I want to go with Rutgers because it is the last possible win I see...   Do they rebound against poor Buffalo?   If I don't pick them, well, I'm hoping everyone else drops out before the last game.  That doesn't mean Rutgers can't upset someone, but who do you pick?

So... now or never... Rutgers

Correct, to help keep it cleaner, I eliminate the columns once everyone has burned them.

LOL, this is the third time you've tried to pick them I believe.  Please reference the chart in the 2nd post of the thread each week as to who you have available to pick from.

Maybe, but UB is 3-0 and they just beat B1G West champion Eastern Michigan.

Highest rated team in the MAC right now, they are the auto-bid right now from the MAC in my tourney sim.

This is not an obvious week. I guess that's normal -- it keeps getting harder.
