    Since it worked last week...I will run with it again.

    1) A game will be played
    2) A fanbase will be gruntled
    3) ???
    4) Profit

    Just FYI y'all... if you want your pick included in the weekly prediction chart I need one score to enter. Don’t miss out on the considerable sense of personal pride and Hornfans camaraderie that could theoretically accrue to the contest winner.

    I'm going counter to some of the thoughts earlier in this thread - I'm thinking the game will be dominated by the defenses (both pretty good). If that's the case and turnovers don't become a big issue, I see Dicker as a deciding factor -

    Frogs 21

    Sure hope I'm right.

    How about LC treating the winner to 2 tickets to Air Supply at the closest venue to where the winner lives?

    How about it @LonghornCatholic — or at least a Michael Bolton show?

    Dion, how about two prizes: one for the final score and one for predicting the score spread?

    You do realize that these prizes are imaginary? I guess I could send out a HF mouse pad to the winner.

    Thinking through how to do this in an automated way... do we have everyone submit a final score prediction and a spread?

    viewing things thru my burnt orange colored glasses........I see the 'Horns defense coming up big time after time and the offense playing mistake free ball and we win 27-10..............Hook em'.............that is all.

    Do you honestly think we are going to score 38 against TCU?

    LOL

    This is exactly what I told the USC kid who was drunk when he asked me this very question at DKR's entry gate ... responded with my best Mr. T.

    neither of the millennials got it. sigh. Guess I am getting old, too.

    Texas doesn't score more than 20 if we don't have ST or Defense score.

    Texas 20

    Shortest game played in 2 years. (I have an early Sunday sign-in ... help me out here!)

    Dicker FG’s are the difference

    So...are you expecting NINE field goals, TWO field goals or do you figure MensaBoy goes for two somewhere in the game and misses on the conversion?

    No, I think we match TCU in TD’s (not necessarily offensive TD’s)....but, Dicker will kick 2 FG’s for the 6 pt difference. Wishful thinking, right? I have other logic, but this is a guessing game anyway. Just wanted to join the contest!

    Interesting. Makes you wonder if Beck has been similarly obsessed with offensive planning.
