2013 Championship Prop Bets
 
For the past few years before the Super Bowl, my brother and I identify about 15-21 even money prop bets. We then take turns picking the outcome of each bet (while the other takes the opposite bet), and the winner is the one with the most correct outcomes.

Just for fun (or year long bragging rights), I'm going to post a bunch of true / false statements. Feel free to answer each one, we'll see who does the best. I'll "lock" the betting on Wednesday after load in, before match schedules are released.

If you have a suggestion for a bet, also post it. Please try to keep the outcome about even odds, and verifiable through posted numbers after the event.

1. The winning alliance of Einstein will be the Blue Alliance.
2. The winning alliance on Newton will have to play three or more finals matches.
3. The sum of the team numbers on the runner up alliance of Curie will be less than 2500.
4. The average elimination match score of Galileo will be 140.0 or more.
5. The average losing elimination match score of Archimedes will be 130.0 or more.
6. There will be a score of 300 or more during some qualification match at the Championship Event.
7. There will be a losing score of 180 or more during some qualification match at the Championship Event.
8. There will be a combined unpenalized score of 400 or more during some qualification match at the Championship Event.
9. There will be an elimination alliance formed where the sum of the team numbers will be 7500 or more.
10. The highest average OPR of any Championship Event division will be 32 or more.
11. The lowest average OPR of any Championship Event division will be 25 or less.
12. After Qualifications, Newton will have a team with an OPR of 91.0 or more.
13. After Qualifications, Curie will have a team with a CCWM of 85.0 or more.
14. After Qualifications, Archimedes will not have a team with an OPR of -5.0 or less.
15. After Qualifications, Galileo will not have a team with a CCWM of -30 or less.
16. The red alliance will win the first qualification match on Newton.
17. The blue alliance will win the first qualification match on Curie.
18. The red alliance will win the last qualification match on Archimedes.
19. The blue alliance will win the last qualification match on Galileo.
20. There will be an 8 seed upsetting a 1 seed during eliminations.
21. A non #1 seed (from their division) will win Einstein.

Tiebreaker #1: Guess the sum of the points scored on Einstein. Closest (higher or lower than actual) will win.
Tiebreaker #2: Guess the sum of the team numbers of the winning alliance on Einstein. Closest (higher or lower than actual) will win.

I'd like to encourage everyone to guess the tiebreakers, as I'm curious to what people think and I'd don't want to break a tie based on no response.

I've seen three people (myself included) who have just used their team number for the second tiebraker :p

Means you don't have very high hopes for your team winning Einstein :p .

Highly doubt we'll have to use the second tiebreaker though.
