Pick The Underdog 2025

Now in its 22nd year. Entry fee of $250 has been waived for all MHT members.

For persons that are new to the game, or if you simply forgot…The rules are simple.

Each week, you pick one underdog. If that team WINS the game outright, you earn the points of the spread. The team can’t just cover…They must win. Naturally, heavy underdogs generate the most points, but are much less likely to pull the upset. Typically, only Saturday games are used.

PICKS MUST BE SUBMITTED (Posted here) BY NOON SATURDAY. Otherwise, the pick does not count. At the end of the regular season, total points are tabulated, and the TOP 15 advance to the Championship (Bowl Games). Accumulated points are used in the Championship.

The winner wins a free 7-day 6-night stay at NickSkin’s rental property…Or his basement. Your choice.

I believe GoMURed was last year’s champion with 83 points. JDW finished second with 79.5 points.

This week’s games (limited schedule) will be posted tonight or tomorrow.

Thanks for doing this. I have few horses to bet on anymore but I like the football fun you’ve created. If you are an MU sports fan, pestercEddie to set up another league as the main one is full. It’s a good time.
