I am happy to announce that we will be having a BGR Basketball Pick'em Contest this year! I can't remember if we have had something like this before, but if so, it's been a while.

For those of you that have played the football contest the last few years, it will be run pretty much the same way. The scoring and the rules will be set up just like in football.

The only real difference will be the timing of the contest. In football, almost all the games are on Friday, with a few on Saturday. But basketball plays pretty much all week long. Since there may be some good matchups that aren't scheduled for the weekend, the weekly pick'em will include games from Tuesday all the way through Saturday. I will plan on posting the pick'em thread sometime on Fridays, and will be open up until Tuesday evening.

According to khsaa.org, the first games start the week after Thanksgiving, so be on the lookout for the first slate of games sometime over the holiday weekend! If you have any questions, send me or Strikeout King a holler.
