TFP Bowl Playoffs Week #3 (All can particpate)
 

This is the third week of the TFP Bowl Playoffs and we are down to the final four. All can post their picks, but only those listed below can eventually be the winner of the TFP Bowl Trophy(tm). Last year separate threads were created, but with improved technology, there will only be one thread this year. Please read all of the instructions closely. If you make a mistake, it is your mistake, not ours.

The tournament is a single elimination format. Therefore, no one should have an advantage heading into the playoffs. Anyone in the tournament can win. Here are the match ups for the third week:


3. steelerz vs. 10. BonesCPA
5. Fantasma vs. 8. Chauncey

The games will be picked on winner of each game. The tiebreakers have changed since the regular season, and also since weeks one and two, so please read them carefully. Note that if both players tie on the games, the tiebreakers are taken in order until a winner is decided. You must pick the correct team/score in order to win the tiebreaker - if your pick is closer to the tiebreaker than your opponent, but still not correct, the next tiebreaker is used.

First Tiebreaker: Highest scoring team of the weekend. You have four teams to choose from. Team name is needed.

Second Tiebreaker: Lowest scoring team of the weekend. Team name is needed.

Third Tiebreaker: First score of weekend. Pick type of score - there are three choices: touchdown, field goal and safety. You must pick the one of the three and it is for the first points scored in the first game of the weekend. (Do not name a team - name the type of scoring play.)

Fourth Tiebreaker: Last score of weekend. Pick type of score - there are three choices: touchdown, field goal and safety. You must pick the one of the three and it is for the last points scored in the second game of the weekend. (Do not name a team - name the type of scoring play.)

Fifth Tiebreaker: Total points of all games played on the weekend. All points of all teams playing is the last number. Closest without going over. If both go over, then the closest.

All can participate in this thread, but the four players listed above should not post their picks directly into this thread. The players still in the race for the TFP Bowl Trophy should PM their picks directly to me and once I have received all of the picks, I will post them in this thread myself. I trust everyone’s sportsmanship, but as they say, it is better to be safe than sorry. Everyone else participating should post directly in this thread.

Good luck to all.
