“Congratulations to last week’s [staff picks] winner, Doug Skene, who was closer than anyone (and would have been even more on the mark with his 42-10 pick had the backup secondary not whiffed on a big touchdown play during Middle Tennessee State’s last drive). This week’s champion receives the jersey Skene wore his last game, the 1993 Rose Bowl … in other words, it’s up to him to repeat, because he’s not aware yet that that’s first prize. Second prize is a set of steak knives.”
