Ahh, the home court advantage. In football, this is typically worth 3-4 points in the spread. Not so much in basketball apparently, at least when comparing to last weekend.
- On Game Day, I will post the official line we will be using for the game.
- In that thread, post your pick against-the-spread for the game that night.
- Make sure you use the same username for every pick (I know some of you are registered, if you aren’t this is a good reason to do so to make it easier). Also, make sure you provide your email so that I can contact the winner at the end of the year.
- Anonymous entries will not count.
- Entries posted after the game starts will not count.
- If you do not provide a pick for the game, it will be marked as a loss in the standings.
- If you are away and can’t make a pick in the thread, you can email me your pick. Email me at clane2787@gmail.com and I will try to email you back ASAP with the line (again, it must be emailed before the start of the game).
- The winner at the end of the year will win a prize (TBD) and I promise it will be something good. I’m not going to be lame like that. I’m searching eBay for cool Villanova stuff as we speak.
- In the event of a tie, the poster with the best BIG EAST record (regular season) wins. If still tied, the best Big 5 record wins. If still tied, the best OOC record wins. If still tied, we may have to do multiple prizes.
The spread for today’s game is Villanova -9.5. Let’s have it people.
