BB Contest, Game 1: vs UCF

[cophbulls]

Welcome to

2012-13 Basketball Prediction Contest

The race for the mildly prestigious Bulliever's Cup is on!

Will we see a repeat of last year when LETHALWEAPONMV and the USF Bulls burst onto the national scene? Can the Bulls Basketball team do what LETHALWEAPONMV was able to do last year and when a championship? Or well we see a new champion crowned this year? Perhaps a well-known face will arise to the occasion or perhaps from the mists of fate a shining star will newly arise? Only time will tell but it all begins HERE!

PLEASE READ THE RULES CAREFULLY - If a rule is broken, your entry will not count. You may appeal any negative ruling, if you choose, but there is only one entity so powerful that he can make exceptions, the Gods themselves cannot grant exceptions, only the one the true Bulliever can overturn a judgement.

So with that said, GAME ON!
