VSiN.com Average Joe 2024 Official Rules

    When: Friday, September 6 through Friday, January 3, 2025 (18 weeks)

    Where: VSiN.com

    Contest plays

    - Seven plays, college and NFL full-game sides and totals (no props, team totals or first-half plays) with one designated as the Best Bet (BB). Contestants are limited to four college football totals per week.

    - Plays will be graded as one point for a win - a Best Bet winner is worth 1.5 points - and a half-point for a push. If a game is canceled or postponed, it's graded to be worth a half-point; a postponed game must be played by the following Thursday or is graded to be worth a half-point.

    - The Best Bet (BB) point total will be used as a tiebreaker if needed.

    - Use the Circa Sports lines posted at Noon PT Fridays. All contestants are using the same lines. Any contestant failing to designate a Best Bet will get a zero for the Best Bet record that week.

    - Seven plays must be submitted no later than 7 a.m. PT each Saturday; any contestant who misses the deadline gets zero points for the week.

    Prize structure

    - Entry with the most points gets entered into the 2025 Circa Friday Football Invitational.

    Contest field/format

    - The contest begins Friday, September 6 and continues each Friday through January 3, 2025.

    - In December during the college bowl season, any games scheduled through the following Thursday can be used in the contest (and any games must be scored as final on that Thursday to count). For the final week, only games scheduled through Monday, January 6 can be used in the contest (and any game must be scored as final on that Monday to count).

    Tiebreaker

    - If there is a tie for first place, the Best Bet (BB) point total for the two or more contestants will be used as a tiebreaker to select the winner; if there still is a tie, the most recent week's Best Bet result will be the tiebreaker, and that process of grading Best Bets continues in reverse order until the tie is broken.If (2) or more entries are still tied, a random drawing will be held to select the winner.

    Only (1) entry will be selected into the 2025 Circa Friday Football Invitational.

    VSiN has the authority to make a final ruling on any contest rules disputes.
