Looks like TLB's cleared a spot for his new lid
The first contest in the storied history of 11W was a success as we received over 40 predictions from across the globe. Nobody predicted the exact score, but two readers got within 3 collective points. TLB forecasted a 34-12 romp while GoBucks89 envisioned a 31-13 outcome. I know I don't need to tell you, but just in case you were grounded, OSU defeated the Huskies 33-14.
We weren't smart enough to publish the tiebreaker rules but we had decided to go with the approach used in the hoops brackets, aka total points. TLB's score totaled 46 points while GoBucks89's score totaled 44 points against a game score totaling 47 points so TLB wins the Grand Prize in the closest contest in 11W history.
Be on the lookout down the line for another chance to show off your prognostication skills. We're looking to overtake Oprah in philanthropical donations by season's end. Feel our reader love.

How'd you get into my house to get that pic?
the last touchdown screwed me!!!
Oh, this is the worst-looking hat I ever saw. What, when you buy a hat like this I bet you get a free bowl of soup, huh?
Oh, but it looks good on you... (rolls eyes)
I demand a recount.
Whoever organized this contest is an idiot. Oh wait, nevermind. Scratch that.
I guessed 27-13.
Fuckin' Brandon Saine. I would have won if not for his last-second play.
I'm trying to come up with a good sour grapes post. Hmmm....how about "I didn't want your stinkin' hat anyway!" Nah, doesn't sound like me. Oh well, can I still get the free bowl of soup?
I dont have much to offer you, GB89...I guess just a hearty, "at least the buckeyes dominated. That's all that really matters." hope that helps!
The Citadel wouldn't get more than 3 first downs against us, let alone score 31 on us. (Especially not at the shoe) Who voted Wisconsin #1 and who continues to keep them in front of us? Cheeseheads.
