While only one big game remains in the football season, more than 1,000 games are yet to be played in the college basketball season, so it's time for another VSiN contest.

For the second straight year, the Circa College Hoops Challenge will be featured on the network on Friday nights. Ten handicappers compete for seven weeks, beginning Feb. 2 and extending through early April and the NCAA championship game.

VSiN contributor Will Hill won the inaugural basketball contest.

The same sponsors behind the Circa Friday Football Invitational are putting up prizes for the hoops invitational. Circa owner Derek Stevens is awarding a Stadium Swim cabana with a $1,000 credit to the contest winner, who also gets a trophy and a $100 gift card to Brooklyn's Best Pizza & Pasta. The runner-up contestant receives a $100 gift card to Dom Demarco's Pizzeria in Las Vegas.
