LOCKS AND SUPER LOCKS
Each player shall designate one of his 34 picks as a “Lock” and another as a “Super Lock.” Should a player correctly pick either or both of those games, against the point spread, he would be awarded bonus points as follows:
-“Lock” game: 5 bonus points
-“Super Lock” game: 10 bonus points
These bonuses pertain no matter how many points you receive for the game under the basic scoring rules. For example, if your “Lock” game is the Pioneer Las Vegas Bowl, a 1-point game, and you pick it correctly, you will receive 6 points – 1 under the basic scoring rules and an additional 5 because you designated it as your “Lock.” If your “Lock” game is the FedEx Orange Bowl, a 5-point game, and you pick it correctly, you will receive 10 points – 5 under the basic scoring rules and an addition 5 because you designated it as your “Lock.”
ADDITIONAL BONUS POINTS
In addition to the basic scoring rules and the Lock/Super Lock points, a player may earn bonus points for picking many different combinations of games.
