Bulls vs. South Carolina

Fans Prediction Contest

Congratulations to bull-roarer on his Week 1 win!

The Bulls Take on the SEC's  South Carolina Gamecocks

The Contest:  Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to select the winner for the season's first USF football game - as well as make some tie-breaking prognostications.  Prizes await, as does the respect and admiration of Bulls fans across the country.

First...the rules:

1)  You must be a registered member of this message board.

2)  You must completely answer the contest questions.

3)  There can be no modifications to your post.

4)  Your prediction must be part of this original thread

5)  Post must be submitted by Midnight (eastern) prior to game.

For additional contest rules, please read the small print below.

And now, the contest:

For the Bulls game against South Carolina Saturday, Sebtember 18th, please select the following:

1)  The winner

2)  The final score

3)  Bulls total offensive yards

4)  Bulls leading receiver

Please try to keep in the above format so that it will be easier to manage.  Sample response would be:

1)  South Florida

2)  80-3

3)  550

4)  Green

After posting the responses like above, please feel free make your case for your picks, or predict other aspects of the game.  It will make the thread much more entertaining if everyone gives their reasons for their picks, and make predictions on other aspects like special teams, rushing, or which QB will get the most PT.

The winner will be decided with the first and second prediction items.  I am looking for the person that comes closest to the actual score, not simply the margin of victory.  If more than one person is correct, or equally close, we'll go to item three.  Closest wins.  If still tied, we go to item four - if still tied, all winners get a gift.

Gifts available for this game:

The winner(s) may select from the following prizes:

1. A Bulls Iconic U window cling.  Approximately 3.5"x4".

2. A Marquel Blackwell NFL Trading Card

3.  A Bill Gramatica NFL Trading Card

4.  An Anthony Henry NFL Trading Card

5.  South Florida Bulls Golf Towel with previous logo, brand new

New Bonus Offer:  If you established a monthly subscription site donation prior to September 11, you are eligible to select prize #6.  If you have not established a monthly subscription, but instead make a $3 donation anytime up until kickoff, you too will be eligible for prize #6 for the USF-Pitt Prediction Contest.

6.  A SunTime 12 inch wall clock.  Dual logos and Quartz-accurate movement with logo and team color-coordinated mineral glass crystal and ring.  Retails for $24.95

The whole thing is just for fun, so please participate, enjoy the contest and have fun!

As with previous years' contests, Bulliever is the final judge on all entries.  He will select the winner based on pre-established criteria.   All decisions are final, unless Bulliever changes his mind.  Finally, Bulliever will only refer to himself in the third person when typing in small print.
