Thank you.
Care to ban bet on that? Sig bet?
Sure. If you set the minimum at 100 carries. I'm not including players that will have over 100 carries less.

We can use the ESPN “Qualified players” list. In order to qualify, each player must average a minimum of 6.25 carries per game his team has played.
What are the terms? Off-season ban bet?

No, 100 carries total on the season. We aren't including players like Dalvin Cook who only played in 4 games in a YPC ban bet.
That would be ignorant on my part since it slants it in your favor too much. Minimum of 100 already gives you an edge since that will be well less than half of what Fournette will end with.

It wouldn’t include Cook or any other player of that nature. Player has to average 6.25 carries per game his team has played - regardless of his own participation.

So, a minimum of 100 carries it is.

Why do you get to set some arbitrary number? It’s my bet. Are you the pussy now?
If ESPN has formulated an entire ranking system based on a qualifying metric, that should be good enough. That ranking metric was what I was referring to when I said he wouldn’t be ranked inside the Top 20.

Multiply 16 x 6.25 and get back to me.

Regular season only.

Okay, deal.
If Fournette finishes inside of the Top 20 in YPC, I will take a self imposed off-season ban bet from the SECRant. If he finishes outside of the Top 20, you will take a self imposed off-season ban bet from the SECRant.
LF finishing in a tie for the 20th position nullifies the bet.
Deal?

Inside the top 20 is 1-20. So, which is it?

I laid out the terms. Accept or run.
A tie for 20th nullifies the bet. Take it or leave it.
You shouldn’t have much to worry about. 20th is pretty average. You clearly think he’s better than average.

If you're going to lay out terms make them clear. Stating inside the top 20 is a win for me does not mean 20th nullifies. That means 20th is a win.
So, again, lay out your terms clearly in a a single post and I'll accept.
ETA: This needs to include what we are betting (Self Imposed ban until the start of the 2018 NFL regular season) and the boards this includes (Just SEC Rant from what I can tell)

The only scenario that would nullify the bet would be if he finishes in the 20th spot for YPC (min. 100 rushes), tied with someone else for that position. Otherwise, 1-20 wins the bet for you.
Outside of 20, I win.
Again, a LF tie for 20th wouldn’t count for either and the bet would be off.
It is a self imposed ban bet for the SECRant only, during the football off-season - so it would start the day after the Super Bowl & be over on the first day of the 2018 college football season. That allows us to post for the start of the college season, as opposed to missing the first couple of weeks waiting on the NFL to start.
