Soapbox Oracle - MLS predictions start

NWSL tournament continues, and MLS starts.

By Kreg Asay

Oracle Scoring System:

  • Getting the right result (Team A beats Team B): 1 point
  • Each correct number of goals for either team: 1 point (result was 1-1, and you picked 2-1; gives you 1 correct pick and 1 wrong pick so 1 point).
  • If you picked the correct goal for one team, and the final result (result was 2-0, and you picked 2-1; you get 1 point for the goal, and one for the result so 2 points).

So there is are 0-3 points possible for EVERY game. Bonus games will also be added occasionally with International games, Open Cup and others.

NWSL games from last week have been carried over, if you want to keep your original picks leave it blank. MLS picks are still just over a week out, so here’s your first chance to get picks in!

Recap of the previous stats and standings:

Tournament Wk 1 ORACLE OF THE WEEK: Yet to be crowned - will update on Wednesday!

  • Participation: 12 (3 players didn’t re-pick after the schedule change, they only get points for the 2 games that didn’t change).
  • Game with most points earned: TBD, thus far North Carolina Courage beating Portland Thorns earned 22 points for players.
  • Game with least points earned: TBD, but Washington Spirit’s surprise win over Chicago Red Stars gave only 9 points.
  • Bonus/Tiebreaker: TBD

Here’s the full scoring spreadsheet, and the survey for next week, which is also at the bottom of this page for some viewers!
