2015 BTB Playoff Pick 'Em Results: Mopping Up The Divisional Round

I find that I quickly lose interest in the playoffs when the Cowboys are eliminated or, as has been the case more often than not, the Cowboys didn't make the playoffs in the first place. But, as we've learned this season, it's important to finish the fight and power through adversity, which is why were going to continue with our BTB Playoff Pick 'Em Contest as if nothing has changed.

But before we get to the picks for the Conference Championship games this weekend, let's take a quick look at how our contestants have fared over the last two weeks. Our Pick 'Em contest asked you to pick the straight up winners for the four games on each of the last two weekends. And to spice things up, we used a Confidence Points scoring system where you had to give each game you picked a specific point value based on how strongly you felt about the accuracy of your selection.

If you had correctly picked every single one of the eight winners so far, you'd have gotten 80 points, which the exact points total BTB-member Realist Larry has amassed by correctly picking the four winners of the Wild Card Round and the four winners of the Divisional round.

A few other participants came close, but nobody outside of Realist Larry is batting 1.000 in the playoffs. Here's a short summary of the Top 10 participants in our Pick 'Em contest, you'll find the full results of all participants at the end of this post.

Congratulations to all of you and good luck defending your Top 10 spot for the remainder of the playoffs.

Our Confidence Points system gets a lot simpler this week with just two games being played. This week, you will assign 8 points to one game, and 16 points to the other.

The link above should auto-fill your BTB user name into the entry form (in most cases). In some cases, the link hasn't worked properly, so here's an alternative link that works without the auto-fill - just remember to spell your username correctly.

If you prefer not to use your BTB user name, or are not a BTB member, go ahead and enter a name of your choosing, but try to stick with that name throughout the playoffs.
