Quote from the predictions link, first post:
SCORING - 4 points per answer. You can get fractions of the 4 points for partially correct answers. Total of 100 possible points.
For Questions 6 and 8, you get the point for being within 2 wins either way.
You are correct.
p.s. I think I only got 14 points...last place..kinda like the Sox.
