Here is the way this game works. I will supply the Weeks matchups. With each matchup will be the line as of the last 24 hours. What you need to do is:
- Step 1: Pick 3 teams who are NOT the favorites that you think will cover the spread
- Step 2: Well…that’s it
What you are trying to do, is select the three teams most likely to beat the spread in the comments below. You will get the points POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE that each team earns vs. the Spread. Also, if you miss a week, 5 points will be deducted from your score, so once you start, you can’t quit!

Recap
For a second consecutive week we had 3 submissions meaning RK, Sixtus and Heath got the automatic 5 point deduction. That actually might have been the smart play as it would be an improvement over the -21.5 that Feslen suffered and the -12 that Pete had. Perhaps they are onto something here…. I would have joined the collective if not for perhaps the most absurd upset this season as Atlanta has now beat New Orleans and San Francisco as a 5-9 team.
