Protect Your Unit Week 4 Picks Thread

In which the length of the season is settled. Possibly.

(DISCLAIMER: This fame is for entertainment purposes only. No actual money is being wagered.)

Since we talked last, the Pac-12 and Mountain West have announced they will play abbreviated fall seasons. The Big Ten previously announced they would do the same. That leaves only the MAC, and a few individual schools, still sitting out fall football.

This makes it likely that there will be little or no FBS spring football. Which means the Protect Your Unit season will play out more or less as normal. I had previously suggested there could be “fall” and “spring” PYU seasons, or one really long season running from September to March.

As of now, I plan to end the PYU 2020 season after the bowl games and national championship are completed. Keep in mind these may be pushed back from their traditional dates into mid/late January. If some FBS teams do play in spring, those games will probably just be ignored. I don’t want to run a whole spring season just for MAC, minor independent, and Old Dominion games, which rarely see any action. As with everything in 2020, this is subject to change.

We had four cancelled games this week: USF-FAU, Notre Dame-Wake Forest, North Texas-Houston, and Memphis-UTSA. As per normal procedure, all single bets were set to $0, so you may re-bet that money if desired. And all bets within parlays were set to VOID and will be treated as a push. All information at protectyouru.net reflects these updates.
