A total of 35 people joined the game this year and 5 have already been eliminated. I'm guessing we'll lose at least a few more this week for not making a pick. Remember Rule #6, it always seem to get a few newcomers in these types of games.
Good luck in Week 2!
Big XII MBB Survivor Rules
1- Pick a team each week you feel will win one of their conference games (non-conference games do not count, so be careful in Week 5 with the Big 12/SEC Challenge).
2- Choose one conference game during the week that your chosen team "must win".
3- Your team and "must win" game pick must be submitted before tip-off for the game to count.
4- If your team wins the "must win" game, you move on!
5- After you choose a team, you may NOT pick them again.
6- You may NOT pick against a team in consecutive weeks.....meaning nobody can pick against TCU (or any other team) 2 weeks in a row.
7- If you submit a team you have already chosen (Rule 5), a team you're not supposed to pick (Rule 6), or don't submit a pick for the week.... you are eliminated.
8- Each week starts on Saturday (Friday in Week 10) and ends on Wednesday.
9- Editing of a post containing a pick is prohibited after tip-off of the week's first game.
10- Last man/woman/child standing wins.

1- Road victory by chosen team in "must win" game (+1).
2- Chosen team winning 2 conference games in the week (+1). The team pick must be submitted before the team's first game of the week to be eligible for this bonus point.
