Could you have predicted much closer to my numbers holmes? I mean, I know I'm in first place overall, but that's a bit ridiculoso, don't you think?

a "without going over" clause is in order. would solicit a 0-1 score.

Honestly, I didn't look at any predictions. Also, I didn't know you were in first place. I wouldn't try to cheat off of someone who is on the church flag football IR list.

I adjusted mine a little. Sorry about that.

All right, this time I want you to predict the score as usual. Since I don't really know anything about this Wyoming team, I have had a hard time coming up with an interesting stat.

I want two other figures:
1) the difference in total yards between BYU and Wyoming (if BYU's total yards is higher, then your number is positive).
2) receiving yards by non-RB, non-TE, non-Austin Collie. In other words, how many yards receiving with the WRs for BYU have, excluding Collie.

I will take the square root and log of both these numbers.

Format:

BYU xx
Wyo xx
Total yd xx
WR yd xx

BYU 45
WYO 13
BYU 249
WR Yd 69DUDE!
