We're going to do this one a bit different this year. Gone is the weekly competitions. Instead, you're going to pick SEVEN teams to go undefeated. Obviously, you're going to want to span out across divisions but you can pick all D1 or all D7 or all in between. Doesn't matter.
The concept is simple. Pick 7 teams. Rank them in order from #1 through #7. You will be judged by HOW FAR into the season (by OHSAA WEEK) that the team goes before suffering a loss. For this new contest, the loss can happen to any team, including out of state teams. When your #1 team loses, you then jump to your #2 team. And #3 team. #4, etc. Hopefully ONE of your 7 goes undefeated.
If only one survives all 16 weeks, they're the Last Man Standing. If there's MORE THAN ONE participant alive going into Week 16, the tie-breaker will be WHICH RANK your team is in your 7 that goes undefeated. If still tied, it will be HOW MANY STATE CHAMPIONS you picked out of your seven. And if there's still a tie, it will be overall record of ALL SEVEN teams you picked. Still tied? In the exceedingly unlikely situation, you'll have a fight to the death after the Saturday night game at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium. Or you can share the title. Doesn't matter to me.
For example, you would write out your seven like this:
#1 Millersport
#2 Vanlue
#3 Leetonia
#4 Richmond Heights
#5 Ashtabula St. John
#6 Beallsville
#7 Vienna Mathews
Then you sit back and watch your season play out. I will give updates from time to time how players are doing. Once all seven of your teams suffer a loss, your participation in the contest ends.
Picks need to be in by 7pm on FRIDAY! August 23th, 2024. You CAN pick a Thursday playing team if you get your pick in by Thursday before kickoff. This is your only chance to play. There will be no additional opportunities to join.
Good luck everyone!
