Since Division 1-AA has a tourney to determine a TRUE national football champion every year, I've decided to have a little contest for a 5-pack of some of my favorite smokes. Please read the rules carefully!

All entries must be posted by Friday, December 3rd.
One entry per contestant.
Must list the 2 Final Teams playing in the Championship Game on December 17th and also identify the Champion.
Also list the total number of points as a tiebreaker.
If anyone gets both teams, plus winner, and the correct number of points, I will add an Opus X to the prize package.
If two people guess the exact same teams, winner, and points, only the first person posting will count, so don't duplicate....

Welcome to the world where a true national football champion will be crowned in Chattanooga on December 18th. The number 1 seed and number 4 seed have already been eliminated in the first round. The Deleware Blue Hens won in 2003 and are the defending champion. My beloved Appalachian State Mountaineers missed the playoffs...again!

Happy guessing...............

And I'll make the first guess:
Furman beats Montana 28-17 (45 total points)

Go Southern Conference..........

Don't know much, but I do know that in about 10 years I'd like to see my hometown team (South Dakota State Univ) make it. They just turned 1-AA this year - obviously won't be able to "compete" for some time.

Montana Beats Furman 34-27 (61 points)

Furman beats Montana 42-34 (76 total points)

These teams are always all offense...I miss Marshall being a part of the challenge, at least WV could be proud of them.

Hi La10870 -

Are you an Appalachain alum? I graduated in '91... Don't run across too many Mountaineers!


I'll take Montana beats Delaware 45-28

Mike, YES I AM. Graduated from "God's Little Acre" in 1977 and still get back for at least one football game a year as well as catching alot of the games that are closer to Atlanta, such as UT-C, Furman, Wofford, and GSU. Email me at mladd at hgi1 dot com and we can share lies...

Surprised to see no one picking Deleware to repeat so far as those Blue Hen fans are rather rabid..

Eastern Washington over Furman 45-27
Total 72

Thanks for the contest.

Tim

I wondered when the Eastern Washington Eagles would show up. Certainly deserving after beating #1 ranked SIU. Nice pick!

I lived in Spokane in the mid '70s and had to go with the Eagles.
