Well, that didn't go as anyone expected. Listening to Art's interview after the game on the radio broadcast, he sounded as if he was in complete recoil from what had just occurred. Maybe all the ODBers were there with him in that just a bit.

The impact on the outcome also created some pretty big variances in the Final Four. It was GeorgiaBear (34-10) up against beardoug1(45-24) and beefsupreme* (45-13) going against C5O (45-20). That last field goal for UT determined the winner of the first pairing with beardoug1 claiming victory on a variance of 29. GeorgiaBear's variance was a single point more at 30.

In the other match up, both players selected a Baylor score of 45 meaning the outcome was coming down to the number of points scored by UT. C5O moves on to the Championship game with a variance of 31. beefsupreme* had a good run that ended with an unusually high variance of 38.

So for the bowl game, it will be C5O (the #2 seed) up against beardoug1 (the #4 seed) for the "ODB Predict the Score" game 2015 championship bragging rights. See everyone again around Boxing Day for the final Baylor prediction of the year. Until then, I am predicting (and wishing) a Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

The Complete Results:

Probably obvious but the 'Baylor' column represents the predicted score for the Bears, the 'UT' column is for the Longhorns., and the 'Variance' column is the combined/total variance the predictions were off from correct score of 17-23. Congratulations to EBUZZA for being the closest this week. BNT...neither the 62-0 thing nor the 91-0 thing quite worked out. (Missed it by THAT much.)
