2015-2016 Bluegrass Regional Basketball Contest (Week 8)

 

Bluegrasspreps.com is giving you a chance to demonstrate your basketball expertise statewide! The Bluegrasspreps Regional Pick 'em contests give you opportunities to pick games in different parts of the state for prizes EACH WEEK.

 

There will be five regional contests every week. You will have a chance to pick the winners in each region -- NKY, EKY, Bluegrass, Louisville, and WKY. This is the Bluegrass contest.

 

Each region will have five games to pick from each week. We pick the games, and you will pick the winner of each game, assigning your picks a point value of 7-5-3-2-1.

 

The first tiebreaker is picking the team (of the ten teams in the contest) that scores the most points. You don't have to pick the highest scoring team, you just have to pick a team that scores more points than the team(s) picked by the member(s) you are tied with.

 

The second tiebreaker is time. Early bird gets the worm if the contest comes down to the second tiebreaker.

 

This is a season long contest and you can enter in any or all regions that you wish.

 

Please note that Free Members are not eligible for this contest. Posts from Free Members will be deleted.

 

At the end of the regular season, the top two contestants will compete during the special Sweet 16 Contest for statewide bragging rights on Bluegrasspreps and a grand prize. If you win more than one position in the postseason playoff, then your second slot will go to the next contestant in order.. The more contests you enter, the better your chances of qualifying for the Sweet 16 Contest.

 

If you win a weekly contest, you will receive a quality prize. Check here for a reference.

 

The deadline for all entries is 5 p.m. (ET) Friday.

 

Make sure you post your winners and assign each of them one of the following point values (7-5-3-2-1) based on how strongly you feel that that team will win. (Please note that if your selections are NOT in the specified format, your ENTIRE set of picks will be voided)
