Holy Crap! The First TIE for the OBD Prediction Contest?

Recommended Posts

I never thought I'd see this!

 

The Official Box Score:   Score       Turnover Total       Sacks          Passing Yards

Oregon                               38-17                 0                       0                       294   

 

We had three who were within three points total of the score:

 

Steven A.                           38-14                  3                       4                      288*

EagleScoutJim                  41-17                 3                       3*                     320

JDuck                                 38-20                 3                       4                       311

 

So, when we look at the three tiebreakers, Steven A. wins on the passing yardage, EagleScoutJim wins on being closest to the Sacks, but both are tied with the turnovers!

 

Now I could award it to Steven A., since he is a founding OBD member, and a very gracious volunteer. But I could also award it to EagleScoutJim because he is brand new as a member, and jumped right in posting and joining this contest.

 

BOTH are deserving, thus I am declaring BOTH as winners, and no....I am not adding more tiebreakers!

 

Besides, I really know what I'm doing!

Maybe we use price is right rules . . . Closest without going over.

 

Hummm, I wonder how that would turn out.

 

Eagle Scout Jim went over on Duck's points.

JDuck went over on Mich points.

All three over on TOs and sacks.

JDuck and Eagle Scout Jim went over on passing yards.

 

Or, we could use "deltas" for each category.

 

All three off by 3 on sacks

Eagle Scout Jim off by 3 on TOs, Steven A and JDuck off by 4

Passing yards:  Steven A off by 6, Eagle Scout Jim and JDucks off by, well I can't count that high!!!

 

Tada, just saying.

 

Actually, it should go to Eagle Scout Jim as he outranks me since I only made it to First Class.

While not being a participation trophy per se, we ALL win by being Ducks fans!
