Running With The Dogs (Picking the underdogs) Week Nine

Post by Rebel-Fan-74 »

In this game, you pick the Underdog (according to Doodle's Doodles) that you think will not only cover the spread but may just win outright! Unless someone wants to step up and provide prizes, this will be for bragging rights only (HOWEVER: We will gladly accept any donations of cash, gift certificates, etc to provide to the weekly winners!)

The tiebreaker will be the total points scored by the biggest underdog on your list.

Examples:
In game one: Doodles has a projected spread of 33 points and the favorite won 42-0 so the underdog did not cover the spread and you get -1 point for that game if you picked it.

In game two: The underdog lost, but was closer than Doodle's spread, so you would get 1 point if you picked that game.

In game three: Not only did the underdog cover, they won the game, so you would get 5 points if you picked that game.

You pick three games where you think the underdog (according to the list from Doodles' Doodles) will at least will lose by less than the projected margin or possible win outright.

I chose these games:
SUMMERVILLE 308.20 ASHLEY RIDGE 304.20 2
NORTHWESTERN 321.20 SOUTH POINTE 292.70 14
MYRTLE BEACH 270.40 WILSON 250.70 10

South Pointe will score 28


So I'm thinking that Ashley Ridge will beat Summerville.
South Pointe will not lose by 14 points
Wilson will not lose by 10 points.

For the tie breaker, I predicted that South Pointe would score 28 points.

So let's say:
Ashley Ridge actually beats Summerville, I get 5 points.
South Pointe loses by 21 points, I get -1 points
Wilson loses by 3 points, I get 1 point.

Bottom line:
Pick a team where Doodles has them too big of an underdog!
