Nah ..... I'll stand by my prediction and give Extra Point whatever advantage picking second brings. 

Game Theory could probably let either of us maximize our chances based upon the likely distribution of other Cardboard picks vs the likely spread of game scores.  My guess is that might lead to choosing Michigan St .... And then you've truly joined the dark side.  I've already done that once with the Oregon game and, baby, it was cold outside.  This is my best guess at how these two stingy defenses will do when facing offenses that have had a month to prepare.

Barring Willy Howard blowing out the ligaments in his right knee or Troy Walters playing the Rose Bowl with his hand in a cast  (and THAT could never happen, right?) I'll stick with my score.
