Good Luck Bulls!

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.

If we lose to Div II Grand Canyon, just call the season lost. I can handle a loss to a stong returning Miss Valley St team, but GCU is another story!
