I’ll go ahead and get the COC Pick Em going for anyone interested! The rules are the same as before….
Each correctly picked game is worth 1 point, however some games may be worth more.
So the maximum potential value of a game is 2.5pts.
Selections must be made prior to the start of each game. Posts with edits or changes made after the start of the game will be disqualified.
It will help me if you list the games/winners for the week in the same order that I do since that is the order of the columns on my spreadsheet.
I will try to post updates on Mondays but sometimes it may be later in the week.
And here are my picks:
Branson at Nixa: I don’t know if Nixa will deliver like some are expecting but I do think they’ll open strong at home.
CJ at Willard: Willard has been an odd team to predict but CJ may have one of the least experienced and thin rosters in the conference.
Carthage at Ozark: Ozark handed Carthage a pair of unexpected opening season losses recently but Carthage has quite of bit of experience on the field so I think they’ll prevail even if it starts rocky.
Joplin at Webb City: I’m going out on a limb here banking that Joplin will out-offense Webb and maybe capitalize on some turnovers in a similar situation to what we saw a few years ago when Webb lost at Carl Junction. But has anyone in the modern era hung 3 in a row on Webb City?
Neosho at Republic: I believe both will have first year coaches? Tossup I guess, maybe go with home team?

- Road wins are worth extra half point
- If 45% or less pick the winner it’s considered an upset and the game is worth an extra half point
- If 25% or less pick the winner it’s considered a major upset and is worth a full extra point
