Prediction Contest BYU vs. Mighty EWU - cougarguard.com — unofficial BYU Cougars / LDS sports, football, basketball forum and message board

Per GN's suggestion, the pick this week is the number of yards that Fui will have.

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.

That's easy.

Fui will have one carry, he will gain 2 yards, look very tentative, then get pulled out of the game and replaced by Unga.
