Bolt s first tiebreaker was 37, one Point off the total score in Michigan s2-14 win Over Southern Cal in the Rose bowl. The Only other person to get All 12 games Correct and be one off on the first tiebreaker was Wendy Wood a Secretary with the american red Cross in Kirch Gons West Ger Many who guessed 35 Points would be scored in the Rose bowl. My first tiebreaker i knew i was Only one off Bott said. Last year the Guy won it with one off. I figured if he had a Chance i did. But i figured i they went to the second tiebreaker i was Wood and Bott did go to the second tiebreaker guessing the total Points scored in the Orange bowl where Miami thrashed Nebraska 23-3. Wood guessed 45 Points 19 Points off the Mark so Bott s prediction of 38, Al though 12 Points off clinched his trip to Miami.
