Win $290!! Another pick 'em contest

As some of you may remember, I was in Vegas back in late May. I bought at Ceasar's a $10 ticket on the Vols to win the BCS, at 28 to 1. So the ticket is worth a total of $290 if they win it all.

Volfreak already has the contest going for the UT-Cal game. I ran it by him and its okay to have this contest going at the same time. Its a pick 'em contest, open until 12 p.m., noon, EST on Thursday, August 30. At that time, I am going to print up the entries, so no changing them later. No late entries allowed.

My decisions on the outcome, in terms of figuring out late entries or edited ones, is final.

Pick a winner in each game and don't forget the tie-breaker !! Good luck all.

LSU at Miss. State
Utah at Oregon State
Washington at Syracuse
Marshall at Miami (Fla)
Virginia at Wyoming
Washington State at Wisconsin
Ga. Tech at Notre Dame
Wake Forest at Boston College
Oklahoma State at Georgia
Tennessee at California

Tiebreaker: Total points scored in the UTenn game.

(In the event of a tie using that system, I'll just split the interest in the ticket evenly.)

And just to clarify ... you MIGHT win $290. All you get for winning this contest is the interest in the ticket. To get the dough, you would then need the Vols to win the BCS national championship.

LG - I'm going to move this to the Sports forum just to cut down on any confusion between the two pick 'ems.
