Congrats to StewieGopherFan -- winner of tonight's Predict the Score

[Rick Mons]

StewieGopherFan and Peanutbuttertubbytime tied with predictions that were 11 points off the actual 68-52 score; however, StewieGopherFan wins the tie-breaker with his predicted Gopher score of 68 points. (StewieGopherFan predicted a 68-63 win; Peanutbuttertubbytime envisioned a 60-55 victory.) So, Stewie has his name added to the Roll Call of Honor but each get the 15 points toward the standings.

Speaking of standings, I'll have to post them tomorrow or possibly not until Saturday given things I have ahead of me.

The top five places in tonight's competition are a bit unusual in that we had 21 predict a Gopher win and over half were in the top five places:

1st Place (tie): Peanutbuttertubbytime & StewieGopherFan (11 pt variance) - 15 points awarded(11 pt variance) - 15 points awarded
2nd Place (tie): Blizzard, book, dex8425, Fargobison, GophersOnTheRise & GoFerit (12 pts off) - 10 points awarded
3rd Place (tie): Gopherholefan & GophersInIowa (13 pts off) -7 points awarded
4th Place (tie): betterdeadthanred & rcpratt (14 pts off) - 5 points awarded
5th Place: howeda7 (17 pts off) - 3 points awarded​

The eight remaining G'holers who predicted a Gopher win but were more than 17 points off the actual score include: Notorious PLD, rccola889, UptownMaroon&Gold, gopherpride32, HardwoodElite, whogoofed, Reserve, 94Gopher. Each gets one participation point.

There were 32 of us who predicted a Wisconsin win, including yours truly. In order of prediction: Rick Mons, Gopher737., gopherbadgerman, Ski U Mah Gopher, Southpaw, streetfighter, Bayfieldgopher, Dr.Don, Section201, Anderson8284, Gopher In Qatar, Mikie S, Nuggett, ChemEGopher, Anderson8284, Gopher In Qatar, Mikie S, Nuggett, ChemEGopher, Big Play, MKE_Gopher, Burton34, Gopher1more, Dr. Gopher, macgohper, Gopherocious, Zales04, ulmer, Selection Sunday, Heber, gopher71runner , runningopher. We get nuttin' in terms of points but most of us get the ultimate satisfaction of a Gopher win.

I still like my jinx theory. Everyone was picking against the Gophers because if they knew they did the Gophers would win.

Way to take one for the team guys!
