Big Ten Predictions Ideas

As you all know:
-Lowest week is dropped when tally final scores (Forgives you for missing a week or having a poor week)
-Every game is 1 point (2 points for non-conference close spread, and 2 or 3 points for conference close spread)
I was thinking about giving +2 points to any upset special picks. And I was thinking about having the spread determine this. If any team is a -20 spread or worse, and you pick them to win (and they do), you would get 3 total points (1 for predicting the game right and +2 for any upset special).
Example:
Western Michigan @ Wisconsin (-24)
If you pick Wisconsin and they win, you receive 1 point. But if you pick Western Michigan and they win, you receive 3 points. If your pick is the loser, in either case you get 0 points.
Thoughts?
