    Scoring
    We have 9 different scoring options to choose from.
    Straight Pick em
    » 1 point for each correct pick
     
    Ranked Pick em
    » For each correct pick, users will receive the number of points equal to the confidence rank that they entered for that game.
    » The goal is to score the most points, which may not equate to the most wins
    » The "catch" is that ranking numbers can only be used once
    • Put high points on your most confident pick
    • Put low points on your least confident pick

     
    Pick em Against The Spread (ATS)
    » All games are picked against half-point spreads
    » 1 point for each correct pick
    » How it works: Picking Against the Spread
    • Picking against the spread is where you try to determine which team will cover the spread; not necessarily which team will win.
    • While certain teams will win their game, they will not “cover the spread”, and thus if the team is selected it will count as a loss.
    • Example
      • The home team is favored by 16.5 points (-16.5)
      • The home team beats their opponent by 8 points (31 to 23), but, the home team's spread was (-16.5), so, when picking against the spread, the home team's score was 14.5 (31 minus 16.5), which is less than their opponent's score of 23.
      • This means anyone who picked the home team to win by 16.5 points or more was incorrect, since they only won by 8 points
