Well that last game kinda sucked, huh? Oh well. We have had a bye week to help lick our wounds and get better.

This year we are going to change it up a little bit and have a few house rules so we know what to expect.

  • Guess the actual score as close as you can (obviously) but in the event that no one gets the score 100% correct, we are going to go with how close you guys were. Without going over.

What does that mean?

Let’s say the score was Boise State wins 17-10. Person A had 17-13 and Person B had 17-7. Both had Boise State’s score, but whiffed a little on the opposing score. But both were within three of the opposing score. The person who had the guess of 7 wins because that person did not go over.

  • The tiebreakers will go in order below. Again, as close to the actual tiebreaker as possible, even going over. In the unlikely even that the winner isn’t resolved after those, we are going to the ultimate winner: time. I will look at the time stamp and whoever posted first gets the nod.
  • Always choose the Broncos to win. No matter the odds. Picking against the Broncos risks a lifetime ban. I’m kidding of course. But seriously.

Tiebreakers:

  • Octavius Evans receptions
  • Deandre Pierce tackles
  • Quinn Skillin punts

What do I get if I win?

You get to be awesome.

What about the Oklahoma State predict the score?

Yeeeeeesh, that was painful. But only because I had to wade through so much optimism. We had two guesses that had Ok St with the win BoiseBronco 38-28 OSU and OSUcowboyOK 32- 26 who—one can only guess—is a Cowboy fan.

Ironically both went under the actual OSU score and over on the Boise State score. Which technically means they both don’t qualify per my ‘Price is Right’ rule. BUT considering they are the only ones to get it “right,” I am still going to pin a winner ribbon on someone. BoiseBronco was only a net 13 points from the actual score. OSUcowboyOK was 17. So that makes BoiseBronco more right. And therefore the winner.

(And I’ll be darned if I let an opposing fan be named a winner on a post that I am writing.)

So congrats (I guess?) to BoiseBronco. Also: can I send you an e-mail?

Your turn

Keep the enthusiasm up guys. The Broncos just need to hold up their end of the bargain.
