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. |

Re: 2013 Championship Prop Bets
Just a reminder to get your bets in, betting closes Wednesday after load in.
If you plan on loading in on Wednesday, you might have trouble trying to procrastinate. ![]() |

Re: 2013 Championship Prop Bets
Bets are now locked, good luck everyone.
In response to below, yes, bets are locked because of the preliminary match schedule. I posted Wednesday because I didn't expect them to release any sort of match schedule, but since this preliminary match schedule has a good chance of being the actual match schedule, bets are locked. I wanted people to make bets before they saw which alliances were formed to make guessing outcomes more difficult. You can still post your bets, and if they end up changing the schedule I'll take them. As things are right now, betting is closed. I've already copied the bets to a spreadsheet, also if there is any editing of bets you can see when the post is edited. Last edited by efoote868 : 22-04-2013 at 16:50. Reason: Won't let me post |

Why are bets locked? It isn't Wednesday yet. Is it because of preliminary schedules?
