How to Play Pigskin Picks

Instructions for Playing Pigskin Picks

  • Log in at www.umalumni.com each week and select the winner of each game involving teams ranked in AP Top 25 Poll. Remember, you’re picking the winner of the game straight up, without considering point spreads.
  • Each game will be assigned a certain point value. Point values go up by five points every two weeks (five points per correct selection in Weeks One and Two, 10 points in Weeks Three and Four, and so on. Michigan football games are always worth an additional five points).
  • Select your “Rout of the Week,” and the point differential between the two teams will be added to your score.
  • You can choose winners or change your selections for any game right up until game time, at which time you can no longer make changes to that game (but you can continue to change your selections for other games that have not started).
  • The player with the highest point total each week will win the weekly prize of $50 Visa gift card (in the event of a tie, one winner will be chosen at random).
  • Weekly point totals will be accumulated and at the end of the season (not including bowl games), the player with the highest overall point total will be awarded the grand prize-his or her choice of:
    • Two season tickets to U-M’s 2010 home football games; or
    • An exclusive U-M football weekend for two, featuring air, hotel accommodations, two tailgate tickets and two game tickets to any 2010 U-M regular-season road game.
