Im thinking $50 for the first year.
I think 6 games a week (I would post the contest locked spreads on Wednesday around 2pm) and you would have a 10pm Friday deadline to get your picks in. You can use Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday night games as you wish. I would reserve a spot on the first page of the Week's betting thread each week to post the contest lines and the official contestants picks each week. We could use a fee holding website like League Safe or Tilt to hold everyones entry fee.
We could also have 1 game each week be your Lock of the Week worth 2 points instead of 1.

on them to win the championship at 40:1. I was obviously all in. But instinct said 40:1 was a little too much overreaction to me. That schedule is still pretty easy, Urban Meyer is still there, and they are still pretty damn talented. If they get anywhere near it, that $1 is probably just going to piss me off more than anything. I could have at least dropped my normal $5 on it
ETA: Anybody win anything on the 5dimes betting contest? How soon do they email you? I hit my 5th last night, and am anxiously awaiting word on my $50 prize

They will send an email to your registered address with a list of prizes saying respond with whatever prize you want if you don't want the free play. If you don't respond, they will eventually just dump the free play into your account.

Had a 9 streak that I lost on the Mariners. They had won 4 in a row leading up to this game and 5 in a row after this game. Lost 2-1 on an unearned run after only mustering up one fricking run on Hector Noesi. $500 prize down the drain...

Thanks for the explanation. I figured I'd just roll with the free play. I was pissed that I didn't really even pay attention to it when they first started it up. I figured there was some kind of catch that would make me not want to play so I didn't even bother for a while. By the time I even started playing, they were already switching from $100 to $50 for the 5 win streak.
That's some shite on the M's too. I remember the game you're talking about because I'm pretty sure I lost money on it too (just not $500)
I also just read about the changes coming Sept 1 where the 5 streak prize will only be equal to the value of your highest wager within that 24 hour window of the start of your streak.

Let's separate the men from the boys and have 10 picks per week with 1 lock worth 2 points.
Do that and I'm in.

How is LSU's talent rank 9th when we put the most players in the NFL almost every year?
Auburn's 4 years average recruiting rank hasn't been ranked higher than 6th, yet are more talented in the SEC than LSU who has a 4 year average of 3?

Someone help me out with a site. They keep historical records of all NCAA teams ATS. If memory serves me correct, Oklahoma hasn't been very impressive in their opening game under Stoops ATS. Admittedly, I know very little about La Tech but I think OU is overrated this year after the Sugar Bowl and they usually struggle mightily ATS early in the season.
