Here it is, football fans – your chance to strut your knowledge for fame and fortune! (OK, a chance to be reasonably well-known and possess something of Minot value.) Hoosier Authority is hosting a pick ’em contest for the state football tournament!
Here is how this titanic battle of football brainiacs will work. First, the “Postseason Pick ’Em” contest begins the second week of sectional play. (That’s because even we don’t have anybody crazy enough to go through a hundred emails with more than 150 picks on them from the first round.)
Simply e-mail your picks by Friday noon ET each week to akirby@digitalsports.com. We will compute the results and post them on HoosierAuthority.com!
There are a few simple rules to this potential bonanza:
First, you must pick all the games for each week. Any game that is not picked will be counted as an incorrect prediction. Second, all entries must be submitted to the e-mail address above by noon on Friday before the games. Finally, make sure you e-mail your picks from an e-mail address you check frequently in case we need to get in touch with you.
Now for the BIG stuff! (OK, the little stuff that is a shameless attempt to draw you into the contest.) The leader after the sectional round of the tournament will become a star on HoosierAuthority.com!
We will travel to your location and video your picks against our leading staff picker. That video will be posted on HoosierAuthority.com the week preceding the regionals. We will continue to do that for each remaining round of the tournament.
Finally, we will supply the winner with a $75 gift certificate to a popular restaurant in his or her area. Come on, you know your girlfriend deserves to eat better than fast food every once in awhile!
Remember: The “Postseason Pick ’Em” battle begins Halloween week, and you need to e-mail your picks to akirby@digitalsports.com!
