RE: Blazernation C-USA Football Pickem
I have had several Pm’s and I apologize for reacting to quick. It has been pointed out that they have not included FCS games in the past and that ODU may have been the exception when we were transitioning. I reacted too fast after I went to select my picks. I understanding and deserve the tongue lashing that a few have sent me. Sorry from an Old fan that is always making mistakes, but only because I want so much for ODU.

Question:

If you lock the incorrect range and pick the correct team does that still count as a -25 penalty?

Yes . You get the points for the win but still lose the 25 for going for the lock. Checking the lock is a risk reward which I have bombed on myself lately

I had two locks last week where I picked the correct team, but was way off on the score. I was not credited with 10 pts. for the win, and -25 for the incorrect lock (-15 game score). I received a -25 for each of those games. An incorrect lock results in a -25 score on the game regardless of who you pick as the winner. It's a big penalty as getting those two locks wrong cost me 70 pts.

When you lock there is no partial credit, you must have correct team and be within the margin to get points. Failure to do either results in -25 points. However, you can get as much as 100 points when you get it right.

Correct, Games vs FCS are not included. Also, ESPN did not have Charlotte games included in the list of C-USA games when i was selecting games, and that is why they were overlooked. Other than that, enjoy. No hard feelings.

The deadline for entries is 6:00 PM EST every Thursday. That is why week 5 selections are showing.
