Bowl season started off with a bang tonight, courtesy of 6-6 Wyoming’s double-overtime win over heavily favored, 8-4 Fresno State in the New Mexico Bowl. And, thanks to that shocking upset, just about everyone’s pick sheets have already been thrown for a loop.
Only one person out of 50 in the 5th annual Living Room Times Bowl Pick ’em Contest correctly predicted both Wyoming’s stunner and Rutgers’s win over Central Florida. And that expert picker is…
…my not-quite-2-year-old daughter.
That’s right: Loyette picked both Wyoming and Rutgers. Admittedly, this is mostly because, when I asked her who she thought would win each bowl, she generally picked whichever team I said last, and Wyoming and Rutgers were both listed second on the bowl list I was reading off of. But still: Woohoo! Go Loyette! 🙂
P.S. Incidentally, if you tried to enter the contest but don’t see your entry on the list, you may have completed your pick sheet but failed to join the group. This can still be remedied: just log in, go to your pick sheet, click “JOIN,” type “LRT” into the search field, and you’ll be prompted to join the group (with your existing picks).
