Nebraska-Illinois Predictions

So it's Nebraska football time again and I am finally in town to enjoy a game. Last week, the Huskers had a bye week so the girls and I will be watching when the two teams kick off at 11 o'clock today.

Of course, there will always be a prediction contest. And this year, we stepped it up with a variety of predictions in addition to the usual ones (winner and final score). The new categories for today's game are: temperature at game time in Lincoln, number of people we will see on TV wearing corncobs on their head and the number of yards rushing by Nebraska.

Name	Winner, Score	Temperature at Kickoff	Cornheads	Neb. Yards Rushing
Emily	Illinois, 47-23	49 degrees	11	316
Lauren	Ants, 10	1 degree	"10 hundred"	1
Julia	Neb., 51-45	51 degrees	6	245
Olivia	Illinois, 47-43	48 degrees	5	402
Veronica	Illinois, 47-36	45 degrees	6	425
Sean	Neb., 42-34	49 degrees	3	425

As you can see, Lauren is already a bit off the mark. But that's OK, right?
