Game 8 of the BYU prediction contest for 2016. I guess I am still in charge. Comments on methodology welcome | cat > /dev/null
The first two lines of a prediction post should take the following form:
BYU|X
Boise St|Y
The delimiter is a pipe/vertical bar (|). Remember, it is not a lower case L (l). The pipe/vertical bar key can usually be found above the enter key on your keyboard (as in SHIFT-\). That formatting is important because the data are gathered via automated script. BYU or a reasonable variation* on the team name must be used or the script will not recognize (and hence record) your offering.
*As always, reasonable is defined by me.
