Believe it or not we can decide a president better than a national champion in Division I college football. Sorry OU but I’m rooting for Florida St. If they win as well as Miami and Washington, then who is number one. We can’t have a playoff soon enough. I’m finished ranting so on to the contest. Here is your chance to once again prove your football knowledge (or lack thereof). The rules are simple. Each bowl game is listed above along with the point spread. Circle (or highlight) the team you think will cover the spread. The spread indicates how much one team is supposed to beat another. For example, Florida St. is favored by 11.5 points over OU (It was 6.5 over Virginia Tech last year. OU may not be getting much respect.). If you think Florida St. will win by 12 points or more then pick Florida St. If you think Florida St. will win by 11 or less points or not win at all then pick OU. The tiebreaker will be based on the combined score of the Florida St.-OU game. If you think the score will be 37 to 27 then write 64 (37 + 27) in the box above.

Entry fee is $10 and the payoff will be 1st place - 60%, 2nd place - 30%, and 3rd place - 10%.

Entry fee must be returned, faxed (512-472-8706), or e-mailed (mrowe@classic-cable.com) to me by Wednesday, December 20 at noon. Entry fee should be attached with contest or follow shortly thereafter. Mail it to: 515 Congress Avenue, Suite 2626, Austin, Texas 78701.
