Score - KU 24, IndSt 17

So this year's competition starts off with a big bang! Judy Jayhawk made a perfect guess and thus is credited with a score of -50. I don't recall ever seeing one of these in football before, and certainly not with the 1st game. Congratulations!

Here are the results, showing how the guesses turned out for this game. After today this post will have an additional part, specifically the season to date standings. Please also note that I'm including everyone's actual guess at the bottom. I started doing this in basketball last year and it seemed to reduce the error rate. Please check this each week to make sure I entered your guess into my spreadsheet correctly. If I didn't, please either post at the end of this thread or PM me and I'll fix it, so long as the time stamp on the post is before the published kickoff time and it hasn't been edited.

I'm ecstatic to be in last place. I don't think I'm a bad fan, just trying to be realistic.

Reality = by the time the Big 12 conference season starts, almost all of us will be "bad fans" by 99's definition

Don't be. If you perform at even an "average" level, you have this season's GTS in the bag already. The big thing is to not miss any guesses!

Sad thing is that I just guessed without giving it any real thought....Now I am over thinking the hell out of this weeks score.
