WELCOME BACK! AFTER A 1-YEAR HIATUS BECAUSE OF COVID-19, WE ARE BACK WITH ANOTHER SEASON OF #CBBSURVIVOR!
brought to you by Rush the Court, the Independent Voice of College Basketball
RULES: Rules are easy. Pick two teams that you think will go unbeaten during the first full week of action (Tuesday Nov. 9 to Sunday Nov. 14). You cannot choose teams that you have already chosen in previous weeks, and it is YOUR responsibility to know which teams you’ve already used. Your pool of available teams are the 76 schools from the ACC, Big East, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12 and SEC.
COVID CANCELLATIONS: Games cancelled because of COVID outbreaks will be treated as “no contest” and there will be no winner or loser for that game. It will not be counted against a player’s required total of games picked that week nor will it be considered a strike during the week of no contest. However, player will not be allowed to use that team again this season.
HOW IT WORKS:
- If both your teams go unbeaten that week, you advance to next week (note: both teams MUST play at least one game that counts against a team’s overall record).
- If your teams split (one goes unbeaten; one loses), you use a strike and advance to next week.
- If both your teams lose a game (or more than one game), you are eliminated.
ELIMINATIONS: If you attempt to use the same team twice in a season, or you choose a team that doesn’t play that week (games must count against a team’s overall record), or you miss a weekly deadline, you are ELIMINATED. There will be no exceptions on this (late submissions, duplicated picks, etc.). The game will go for as long as there are survivors standing, but we may reserve the right to go to daily lightning rounds (max 2 teams per day, Thursday through Sunday of the 1st and 2nd Rounds) during the NCAA Tournament, if necessary.
STRIKES: You’re allowed two strikes during the season. A THIRD strike eliminates you.
DEADLINE: One entry per person, please. Deadline for Week One is 3:00 PM ET Tuesday 11/9. No exceptions!
PLAY: COLLEGE BASKETBALL SURVIVOR ’22.
PICKS: After play begins, everyone’s picks will be documented publicly on the CBB Survivor ’22 page right here.
PRIZES: The last #cbbsurvivor standing will win two tickets to the 2022 NCAA Tournament regional of his choice. Second through fifth place will receive RTC t-shirts. Good luck!
