RE: 2019 CUSA MBB Elimination Contest (Weekend Conference Play)
Hope everyone is looking forward to a most pleasant and fulfilling holiday.
We presently have 19 on the roster of participants for this first attempt at a CUSA-mbb-conference-play-weekend-only elimination contest. I'd like to more than double that number by the Jan. 5 contest kickoff.
This is the first bump of this thread for that purpose.
Merry Christmas, etc. to one and all!

I'm in and also on a roll, so beware. I picked ODU over Morgan State. :) Just to warm up.

RE: 2019 CUSA MBB Elimination Contest (Weekend Conference Play)
Happy Holidays everyone. As I sit home from work and unsure what to do with my brain and hands, I have done a bit of organizing for the weeks ahead for this challenge I must (and will) win. I just wanted to point out with the new pod scheduling, we only have 7 weeks of Saturday games and 14 teams to choose from. My first question is, are the pods going to be part of the game, or are we ignoring them since they aren't on the schedule?
Edit - there's also two conference games this Sat, between USM/La Tech, and North Texas/Rice. I recommend not counting this week, but it's up to you Adopted.

I agree. This coming weekend does NOT count. We start with the Jan. 5 games.
The flex games for the Feb. 23/24, Mar. 2/3 and Feb. 9/10 weekends do count, if the contest hasn't by then been resolved.

RE: 2019 CUSA MBB Elimination Contest (Weekend Conference Play)
Happy New Year, Monarch fans! Here's to the start of a promising (fingers crossed) conference season.
We presently have 20 signed up for this attempt at a mbb elimination contest. (Rules are set out in the opening post.). I'd like to at least double that number by this coming Sat., at 12:00 noon, deadline. You don't need to announce your participation in advance - - just get for first pick in on time. (By doing that, you will just be sentencing this old and confused man to extra typing on Sat.)
There's little risk on your part. You likely will be mocked for the stupidity of your selections, but it's not like there's a high level of respect on this forum as it is. And the required effort on your part will be minimal, since the odds are that you will last very long in the contest anyway.
So make sure that you get you initial picks in on time.
And Go Monarchs!

Correct. Meaning that odu09's pick is for Marshall to defeat Charlotte on Sat.

Indeed - taking the home team helps in this battle of low mid tier teams .
