The actual score was Florida State 77, North Carolina State 17.

Our forecasters gave the Wolfpack defense a lot more respect than the Seminole offense did; no one picked Florida State to score even 70 points. Congratulations to Lew Saphar who moved up to the champion lot after finishing runner-up in the Clemson game. Third place went to Week One champion, Rick Workman -- back near the front after stumbling in the Clemson game. Just behind him was newcomer Eric Lyman, a former FLAMBEAU hack who has been following the 'Noles from Lima, Peru. Thanks for edging me out, Eric. Jerk.

Remember to get your predictions in early for Week Four, FSU vs. Central Florida. YOUR PREDICTION MUST BE E-MAILED! My ISP's news feed is very undependable, so I will probably never see your entry unless you e-mail it to me directly at:

HWILLS@FREENET.TLH.FL.US

Put "FSU vs. CFU" in the subject line so I know it isn't nudie pictures from an FBI agent. Entry updates and results will continue to appear in alt.sports.football.college.fsu-seminoles and other newsgroups.

Past results and other information will also be available on Chris Schmitt's Seminole Football Prediction Contest Homepage:
