2024 Weekly D3 Soccer Pool

Ejay · August 18, 2024, 05:46:11 PM

With the season kicking off soon, I'm putting the finishing touches on the 3rd Annual Weekly D3 Soccer Pool.

Basic set-up is the same...

10 games to select from each weekend
5 points for each correct winner selected
10 points for each correct score predicted
Once again, your lowest weekly score for the season will be removed, so the winner is the person with the highest point total over 10 weeks.
Winner will receive bragging rights

Week 1 pool will open on Tuesday 8/27 and close Friday morning (8/30).

You gotta be in it to win it!

Pool closed with a record 41 participants! Be on the lookout for a quick hit conversation with Simple Coach where we discuss the selections.

Good luck all!

Here is where we did a quick review of the predictions!

I believe 41 is more than we've had for anything in football or basketball

Who had Duke up by 13 with 13 min left?? Must have missed the extra point. Maybe they'll go for 2 next time.

Experiment done.

I was at the beach and pretty much completely unplugged, so you can me to the pile next week.

At least Averett scored a consolation goal in the 81st minute, but I think that led Duke's coach to unshackle the players and they scored a final goal to make it 14-1. Got to admire their restraint in not going above a 13 goal margin!
