How the West was Won...or How Pete can win the Battle of the Facial Hair

Strategy, strategy, strategy. If you vote online, this is who you should vote for in Week 8 to ensure that Paydirt Pete keeps his place at the top.

1. You vote Pete, always and forever. Amen!

2. Joe Bruin vs. Big Red

I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I can't help but love Big Red. I love clicking on his name and seeing the animation. This week is another BIG RED week.

3. Brutus vs. Mr. C

Our past opponents face off. We want to help Mr. C win because if we were to fall by 2 matchups, Brutus would have the higher total. MR.C it is!!!

4. Big Blue vs. Smokey

This one is a no-brainer. Even though we go up against Smokey in a few weeks, we need ODU to fall making us No. 1 so this is where we let the dogs out and vote SMOKEY

5. Monte vs. Goldy

We helped Monte last week, but that's all the help he's getting from us. We want to make sure that we secure out place. This week, we go for the Gophers ;) GOLDY!!!

6. Testudo vs. Bearcat

I can't help it. This one is a toss up. We faced Bearcat in week 1, we don't face Testudo, but I really want Testudo to get his first win so I'm going with the shell dude. Testudo! 

7. The Bird vs. Sebastian

After reading the forum post about how the voting has affected such a small school, my heart goes out to USAFA. This one you can choose, but I'm backing The BIRD!!! Especially after the Amigo Airshow and seeing the Thunderbirds do their thing!

8. Mike vs The Duck

This one is a toughie. Really tough. We faced the Duck, we helped the Duck lose twice. We face Mike in a few weeks. Hmmm....I love going for the underdogs though, so MIKE it is!!! GEAUX Mike. Grrr!

Also, a little hint. If you have Google Chrome, use that to vote. It allows you to go back and will save your changes and username requiring you to enter in a new CAPTCHA. And you don't have to do the write-in vote for your vote to be counted!

As always,
Vote now. Vote often!
