Hello Tiger Fans,

Merry Christmas Everyone!

For each Texas A&M game I set up a Prediction Form and Summary Sheet using Google Docs. It's a fun way to track the predictions that allows me to collect the data and present it in a meaningful way. Instead of just posting a static score, I can compile all the predictions into the Summary Sheet. Please feel free to make a prediction by using the link below.

Please be aware; however, that I have run into fanbases in the past who try to abuse the form and google-docs. I have seen innappropriate words used as usernames, erroneous predictions (e.g. 100 to 0, -99 to 1, or 1,000,000 to -999), and other means of just being nasty and disrespectful. It takes a pretty dedicated amount of time and energy to set all this up and I do it on my own for everyone's enjoyment. If you feel the urge to be disrespectful simply because I am from another fanbase I ask you to refrain from using the form and save me the time of right-clicking and deleting your entry. I assure you, it will be deleted if I find it to be distasteful or superfluously erroneous.

That being said, please enjoy the prediction form and use it correctly! Gig'em and Good Game next Friday.

Here is the Cotton Bowl Form for you all to use:
TAMU vs LSU Prediction Form

Here is the running summary of this week's responses:
Summary of Predictions (check bottom right)

Here is the history of previous predictions from earlier this season, (alphabetical by username):
TAMU vs SFA
TAMU vs LaTech
TAMU vs FIU
TAMU at OSU
TAMU vs Arky
TAMU vs Mizzou
TAMU at Kansas
TAMU vs TTU
TAMU vs OU
TAMU vs BU
TAMU vs NU - No Form since I was out-of-country
TAMU vs t.u.

Reminder, I will delete the obviously fake erroneous predictions (1 to 0, 1,000,000 to 999,999, etc) and will filter out the entries that try to be funny with their fake usernames (YourMomma, AggiesSuck, etc). It won't work, just save me a little time and don't click the link if you are going to be disrespectful...

You made a huge mistake posting that here. This board is King of Polls. No way A&M wins this.

I did it. Why doesnt the summary show Tigerdroppings vote results?

I assume we fall under "opponents" but you should make a specific Tigerdroppings cell like you have for Texags.

You guys can click the Summary of Predictions link from the OP, it keeps a live running summary...you can tell how many Tiger fans have responded by looking at the "opponents" total responses

Oh...he usually doesn't post that until after it has been completed because people will try and abuse the form with inappropriate user names, ect..so to keep it clean, he filters everything and then will post the pick by pick results later

Someone voted a score of 99 for LSU and it's bumped our mean score to 23, so now we lead 23-20.
