Deadline for Picks is tipoff time or 5 PM -- whichever is earlier
Please check & make sure your pick is included in the summary after the deadline.
​

Only a handful of games ... there may be two more but the spreads are off the boards right now (SDSU at NDSU and Brown at Yale). I'll add them if lines are established early enough on Friday. Update: no lines on either game ... so we have what we have.

Here are The Rules if you have any questions. Sorry, we're not taking any new participants. And for current participants, please note that you must make a pick at least once every three weeks to remain in the competition.

Please use the colon after your moniker ... I use a macro to enter your picks on a spreadsheet and the macro relies on the colon to get it properly entered.

Today's games and spreads -- please remember that picks are due by tip-off or 5 PM, whichever is earlier. Also, if the game starts at 10PM (EST) or later, chances are the standings will be delayed to the following day.
St Peters at RIDER -6.5 ( 7:00 PM EST)
Marist at LOYOLA-MD -14.5 ( 7:00 PM EST)
Loyola-Il at IL-CHICAGO -2 ( 9:00 PM EST)
N Arizona at E WASHINGTON -2.5 ( 10:05 PM EST)
Montana at SACRAMENTO ST 9.5 ( 10:05 PM EST)
N Colorado at PORTLAND ST 2 ( 10:05 PM EST)
