After you register (only one registration per player) you make your prediction for number of points the Bearcats will score in each of the regular season Big East games. You can make a prediction up until the posted game time but you cannot change a prediction once it has been submitted. You can make your submissions a game at a time, a few at a time, or all at once. But again, once submitted you can't change it.
The scoring system is designed so that any who might join mid-season still have a chance to catch up with a couple of good predictions.
