Contest Rules
Please remember, this is supposed to be about fun and Trojan camaraderie.
There are no entry fees.
Every participant will receive 20,000 betting units.
You must bet a minimum of 1 game and 1,000 units each week. If you forget or choose not to make a wager during any week during the season, 1,000 units will be deducted from your account. If you miss 3 weeks of betting, you will be removed from the game.
There will be a limited number of games for you to choose from each week.
The contest ends after the last game played on December 7, 2024.
I will post the point spread for each week’s games on each Monday.
All wagers must be received by Friday at noon PT, if there is a Thursday game then the wager must be received by Thursday noon PT. (Exact date will posted weekly)
Wagers must be posted on the TDB (preferred) or they can be emailed to: john@trojandailyblog.com.
I will review each wager to make sure that it was correctly placed. I will then respond to your entries to let you know that they have been accepted by liking your wager comment.
If you do not see your wager acknowledgement please contact me as soon as possible by posting a comment on the blog prior to the first game you have wagered on.
If a game is cancelled or moved to another date, then that game will not be counted as a wager (no action).
Winning wagers will be paid as ‘even money’, for example; if you bet 1,000 units, you will win 1,000 units.
The winner will be determined by who has the most betting units in their account at the end of the contest.
I will keep track of everyone’s account and this accounting will be posted on TDB on Monday of each week of the contest. Please review my figures. If you think that a mistake has been made you must contact me by 9pm on the Monday that the results were posted, otherwise these numbers will be considered official.
First Prize is: 150.00
Second Prize is: 75.00
Third Prize is: 25.00
If two people end up in first place, then the first and second prize will be added together and that amount will be split between the two winners.
I will handle all disputes and my decision will be final.
Anyone can be removed from the contest for exhibiting poor sportsmanship, as determined by me.
By making wagers on the games you acknowledge you agree to these rules.

In LR’s last year at ECU, his team gained 2100 yards rushing in that 12 game season(2014). Then from 2015-2021 at Oklahoma his offences ran for 2887(2015), 3078(2016), 3049(2017), 3464(2018), 3363(2019), 1977(2020), 2438(2021).
Then at USC his offences ran for 2400(2022), 1737(2023) and they are on par to gain 2300 in 2024. They ran the ball much better in his Oklahoma days when he had the other O-Line coach. Let’s see how they run the ball for the rest of this season under Josh Henson.Either they need another O-Line coach or LR has changed his offense since coming to USC.
Washington -3.5 for 3000
USC/Minn game total over 51.5 for 2000
John, is the odds on WA/Mich correct? I see Mich is the fave, where online it shows WA the fave.
The odds have been corrected. Thanks.
USC -8.5 at Minnesota for 10,000.
USC VS MINN OVER 51.5 for 4000
PENN ST -28.5 for 2000
