Pick as follows:

BYU xx

EWU xx

Fui xx yds

The calculation for the yards will be as follows:

6 times the log (base 10) of the difference between predicted and actual.

So if you picked 10 yards, and Fui got 110 yards, it would be 110 - 10 = 100

log 100 = 2. 6X2 = 12. 12 would be added to your raw score.

BYU - 45
EWU- 6

Fui - 44
