THE PAC12 THREAD v.4

[SUBuddha]

FYI to get to your picks you have to select Manage your picks then select Edit Picks

OK you fine sports fans, except the Weenies (fuck those guys)......

The 2016 edition of the PAC12 Pickem's is now open.

To join: scroll to the top of the screen and click SportsHoopla Pickem's.

Then click Manage My Pools. Select the PAC12 2016 season. Select Join.

Week 1 is now posted. The only game for the next 2 days is the Weenies vs. the Rainbow Warriors. However, all of the games next week have been rolled into the 1st week.

This season you have until roughly 5 minutes before kickoff for each game to make your picks for the week. I will post spreads no later than 1600 Wednesday PST to allow lines to settle. So for this week, CAL has the line posted already but I will adjust if it changes tomorrow.

Since there are 12 games each week, with a bonus for picking the game of the week correctly 2 times (first week is, obviously, 'Bama vs. U$C). That makes 13 points possible the first few weeks. To compensate, each week will have 13 points possible based on Game of the Week (GOTW) being picked 2 times and teasers once we get into conference play.

If any of you have time to check over week one for start times, home times, etc., it is appreciated. @Vitamike set up the hard work last season, so this season is much easier.

My only question is if we want final score of the GOTW to be part of the comments for a tie breaker again this year?

Post questions in the comments section and good luck you fine folks.

There will be a cash/gift card prize this season (for sure) and epic bragging rights as @mrwallace2ku has flexed from years past.

SUBuddha, lets get a PM going with @Shaggy to discuss some of the details for both this pickem and the NFL pickem.

I got to the picks page but I couldnt figure out how to actually pick any games or teams. And yes I hit edit picks

 

[SUBuddha]

Ok. picked.

 

[WizardHawk]

I don't get it. All I see is my overall standing. No 'edit' button. I can change weeks, but just add comments.

Figured it out.

New to this pick'em format. Never got included in it last year.

UW Jr LB Sean Constantine out for the year with a broken ankle.

He was the primary backup for inside LB. Not a starter, but someone who figured to have a fair amount of game time. Worst of the injuries so far this camp.

Better call off the season UW just went from top 25 defense to top 30

 

[Olyduck]

I got second place last year in pick em? where is my damn silver medal?

 

[Olyduck]

those were all just pick the winners for this one right? we aren't doing any kind of like prop bets on them like most passing yards between WSU and Eastern Washington because that would be a hard pick.

Yes but there are spreads to be added for the rest of Week 1 PAC games.
(For now, only pick the Cal game, as it comes a week earlier than all the rest of Week 1 PAC games)

Prop bets will come down the road when we get into conference play.

On the hoop. Look at the top bar and click on SportsHoopla pickem tab to get started. Pac is the only pickem currently posted.

Some of you SEC heads should make one for your conference. How can you let the Pac dominate hoop contests.

I like the PAC so I have nothing wrong with it. However, if it was the ACC leading..then I'd think this shit was rigged.

When do the picks populate allow you to chose ?

@Lucas be sure you are in week 1, then click on manage my picks up top. It will take you to the picks, then click edit. Keep in mind the only game I have put the spread on is Cal vs. Hawaii so far. Pick that game by friday, the rest of the spreads will be up next Wednesday.
