GOG 2011-12 #13: South Carolina and Super Bowl

UK started conference season against South Carolina and now they will start the second half of the season against the Gamecocks. The last time UK went into Columbia ranked #1 things didn't go so well, I expect this time will be different: Devan Downey is not walking through that door.

Match-up and player information for South Carolina.

Special Scoring Rules for GOG #13

In honor of the Super Bowl, this GOG is composed of a number of prop bet type questions where each answer carries its own point value. So for instance, if you choose "No" for Question 1 and the team that wins the tip-off does not score first then you gain 2 points, but if you pick "Yes" and the team that wins the tip-off scores first you only get 1 point. (Most of the Super Bowl questions are actual prop bets discussed at TeamRankings.com).

Let me know in the comments if you like these kinds of questions. If so I'll mix them in for future GOGs.

Entries are due by 6:00 PM Saturday, February 4.

An extra 9 points to pick SC is total bribery!

Fun idea for scoring. +10 points for the Chickens is still a shameful act. :-)

I figure it would take at least that amount to get anyone to pick them ;-)

I considered making it 15 or even 20, but figured that would be too ridiculous.

So far, 10 was not enough. ;-)

I'm pretty sure I could have made it +100

and no one would have taken it
