2021 Hopski: Last minute article links and tips

We are less than 48 hours until GO TIME for this year's Madness!! ........getting hard to sleep (doh - that is due to stinkin' BOD meeting tonight from midnight to 3am PST.......)!


ENTRY DEADLINE FOR THE HOPSKI IS 12:30 EST FRIDAY!!!

CLICK HERE TO SUBMIT YOUR ENTRY


Some quick last minute tidbits!!  Read on......

1)  Scenario - you cannot think of a good entry name, so you use your last name with a number behind it OR WORSE - you use the same old tired entry name that you have used in your previous 10 Hopskis (this year - I will call out these entrants BTW)!!  This is BAD KARMA!!  BE LIKE POOH!!!


IF that does not work, well, give this great team by team best brackets entry name article a try - but try and be original even using this as a base.  Kudos to @MLutovsky on twitter for this creative genius piece of work!!!

2) Wait, did my picks really get entered........oh I'll just email the Commish and make sure


Nooooooooo!!!  Yes - every year there is a flood of these emails - not trusting the system!!  So - I will download and update the website at least 2-3 times per day Thursday and Friday up to the deadline.

All you need to do to verify your entry is "in" is to CLICK HERE!   If you see your name on this report - your entry is in!!  If it is not there, then check again in about say 4 hours (as it is a manual update that I will do).


3)  Do you love excel spreadsheets??!!

Then check out the KenPon website and use his analytics to maximize your Hopski expected entry value (just explained this concept to my 15 year-old)!!


4)  Lastly, when in doubt, let the mascots duke it out for your entry pick - fun article at SBNation:  2021 Mascot Death Match Bracket



Keep well and get that winning entry in ............
