Women's Conference Tournaments
Marty we suggested that we do this next week with the men's tournaments (and we will) but I thought it only fair we try the women as well. (Speaking of suggestions, I'm getting good ones and am always looking for more...sorry I didn't get the Bass Masters Classic for you Butters.)
Here is the way it will work. Pick the winner of each of the BCS conference tournaments. I am attempting to post links to actual tournament brackets so that you can make educated predictions. Tell me who will win and who they beat in the championship. Three points will be awarded for each champion with a one point bonus if correctly name their opponent. That's it. You get three points, four points or nothing.

College Basketball (Week of Jan. 19)
Games for the week. As you can see, I'm trying to pick the games that match up two ranked teams. I also snuck in an SEC game for Ron (since nobody in the SEC is ranked) and a women's game (denoted below in pink, the way it should roll by on the bottom line ticker on ESPN) because of the local interest.
You might double check for spreads and correct home teams before sending in picks.
Monday, January 19
(8) Syracuse (+8.5) @ (1) Pittsburgh

Purdue (-6.5) @ Indiana
**Quick Note**
I did not realize that it is damn near impossible to find a spread for a regular season women's basketball game. I thought Vegas was prepared to take a bet on anything. This means that I had to set the spread myself on Monday morning. You will notice from my prediction that the spread was not based on what I thought the outcome of the game would resemble. Like Vegas, I tried my best to set the "money line" that would encourage betting on both sides. I figured the were more "Purdue people" than "IU People" predicting and the histories of the two programs would encourage more people to pick Purdue than IU. I won't offer very many women's games until the tournament in March.
