This is a fun game that I have played for several seasons now.
Rules:

There are 16 games for you to select the winner.
Choose who you think will win and then place them in order according to your confidence of that team winning. In other words, #16 would the game where there was a perceived mismatch, if you are right you would score 16 points for that game. For those bubble games that could go either way, you would select #1, and score 1 point.

The highest point total wins.

Here are this week's games.

Houston at Kansas City
Pittsburgh at Miami
Jacksonville at Tennessee
Cleveland at NY Giants
Baltimore at Cincinnati
New Orleans at St. Louis
Chicago at Minnesota
Philadelphia at Detroit

I almost forgot to mention, in the case of a tie, there will be two tie-breakers.

The over-under and the total offensive yardage gained by both teams.

For this week,the tie-breaker game will be Houston at Kansas City
 
I'm in on a game like this in VA Beach. Being done by a radio station. If you have the most point each wekk you "WIN FABULOUS PRIZES!!!". Whoever has the most points at the end of the season gets a 55" HiDef TV.

Porky said:
I demand a recount. Where's the hanging chad committee when you need it. :hehe:

If they recount, you'll probably lose some more points because Kstate didn't win.

:hehe:
 
I did a recount for you Porky. No hanging chads on this one, you score an 89 and finish last. Perhaps our friends in Flordia can count it for you.
