Proposed Scoring Scheme and Rules:

1. Each entry is given an error score equal to the sum of the [difference between the Stanford prediction and the actual Stanford score] and the [diffenence between the opponent prediction and the actual opponent score].

2. Each entry that correctly picked the winner is given 1 point for every entrant that (1) also correctly picked the winner and had a higher error score than theirs, and (2) every entrant that incorrectly picked the winner.

3. Each entry that incorrectly picked the winner is given 1 point for every entrant also incorrectly picked the winner and had a higher error score than theirs.

4. Each player that picks Stanford to lose is deducted 10 points.

5. Each entry that nails the final score gets a 10 point bonus.

6. Each entry that does not nail the score but correctly predicts either Stanford's or the opponents score gets a 3 point bonus.

7. All entries must be submitted in the Google form, except for the first game.

8. If a player enters a prediction on the Google form and also enters a different prediction in a post, then the form entry will take precedent.

9. All entries must be submitted no later than 5 minutes prior to the official kick-off time of each game.

10. The winners will be the players with the highest scores after the last game is played, including bowl or playoff games.

I love it.  I have always wanted the emphasis to be on being closest to picking the correct score with main priority to picking the correct winner.  Thanks Martyup!  

Cheers,
