Hi all,
I'm putting together an NCAA pick'em game that includes both FBS and FCS. Details later, but first I'm trying to include all the teams. I'm going off this list:

First off, Georgia St isn't there, and Hofstra and Northeastern both aren't playing anymore. Any other mistakes you can spot on there?
I would like to include transitional teams (like GSU and ODU).

Would any of you here on AGS be interested in a season-long pick'em contest? It's a little different from the pick-every-week model. Low maintenance, just pick one team from each conference - 27 in total (including FBS and FCS indies) - and watch the points accumulate. It includes not just every FBS but also every FCS conference so I thought you'd be up for it.

Scoring is as follows:

Win = 5 pts
Shutout bonus = 5 pts
Blowout bonus = 1 pt per 7-point margin of victory
Super Sweep Bonus = 100 pts
The super sweep works as follows: if your total score from any week is 135 or above (the average of all your teams winning), you get an extra 100 points

Postseason scoring....

Available to FBS and FCS
Finish .500 or better = 25 pts
Win 10+ games = 100 pts
Win conference = 100 pts

Available only to FBS
Qualify for Non-BCS bowl = 50 pts
Win Non-BCS bowl = 100 pts
Qualify for BCS bowl = 100 pts
Win BCS bowl = 200 pts
Qualify for BCS Title Game = 250 pts
Win BCS Title Game = 500 pts

Available only to FCS
Beat FBS team = 100 pts
Playoff at-large = 20 pts
Win Play-In Game = 30 pts
Earn playoff bye = 50 pts
Win 2nd round game = 75 pts
Win quarterfinal = 100 pts
Win semifinal = 250 pts
Win National Title = 500 pts

Any feedback is appreciated! Especially regarding postseason scoring.
Results would be posted weekly.
