Super Bowl XLII Picks Recap

And the winner is...


Kirat!

The tiebreaker was total points scored, with 31 being the correct answer.

Kirat = 14 (tiebreaker off by 16)
Katie = 14 (tiebreaker off by 25)
Dan = 12 (tiebreaker off by 9)
Chrissy = 12 (blank)
Brittany = 11
Rishi = 10 (tiebreaker exactly right!)
Dave = 10 (tiebreaker off by 20)
Eve = 8
Matt = 7
Burnsy = 6
Mark = 4

Kirat won the grand prize...a pumpkin pie!
Mark won the low prize...a can of black beans!

On the lighter side, Eve beat Mark, Niraj and Matt despite not answering the coin toss question and answering "who?" on the Maroney question. Mark, Burnsy, Matt, and Rishi all wagered that the Pats would cover the spread. And this is the 2nd time in 3 years that the winner has been decided by the tiebreaker, and both times the total score was 31. Rishi got the tie breaker correctly, so if he would have wagered on the Giants, he would have won.
