Quiz 9 w/Dr. Knapp:

WV vs NM vs VA



Bold Prediction: New Mexico gets the high.
That would be surprising a couple years back, 
but this is the team that got 4th at SCQANIT yesterday, so I feel confident. 

West Virginia has a loss, BTW. 


Another fun fact: This is like the first time I've been here at Bob Jones when it isn't raining.



Q1: WV gets 20 after a NM miss.

Q2: 20 for NM

Q3: 20 for NM

Q4: The wrong person answered the question for NM, so Knapp rules it as an error. WV gets the rebound.

Q5: Error for VA, 3rd rebound answer for WV.


Score after 5: WV 60 NM 40 VA 0


Q6: 20 for NM

Q7: 3rd error for NM, this time VA gets the rebound. Apparently VA has a lot of fans, because the crowd "exploded"

Q8: 4th error for NM, another VA rebound. The room is overjoyed.

Q9: 20 for NM after a VA miss.

Q10: Another error for NM, WV gets the rebound. 



Score after 10: WV 80, NM 60, VA 40.


Q11: 20 for VA.

Q12: 6th error for NM, VA gets the tossup. 
Looks like by bold prediction isn't a lock like I thought it was. 


Of course, if any of these teams can make a run of 3 or 4 straight, New Mexico can. 

Of course, if any of these teams can make a run of 3 or 4 errors, New Mexico can. 



Q13: 20 for WV, no errors for WV BTW.

Q14: Error for NM, VA gets the rebound.

Q15: NM gets a much needed quote.



Score after 15: WV 100 NM 60 VA 100



Q16: 20 for NM to pull within 20.

Q17: Jinx. Error for NM, WV gets the tossup. 

Q18: Costly VA error to pull them back to 90. 
Error on WV on the tossup, and NM gets the free. 

WV 110 NM 80 VA 90
NM gets the follow up. Real close quiz here.

Q19: NM gets a quote. WV 110 NM 120 VA 90

Q20: VA gets 20 to force a tiebreaker. 
WV is on the hot seat, if they fail, they're done. 


And..... WV gets the tiebreaker to avoid elimination!

Score after 21: WV 130 NM 120 VA 110


Okay, so apparently NM gets the high by, not participating in the tiebreaker? 

Doesn't make sense to me, but at least I got by BOLD prediction right. 

Doubted me? Whatever, they had it in the bag the whole time.
