Football: Beat the LoCo Experts - Playoff Week 3 - Still a Tie at the Top for the "Big Money"

(Nov. 24, 2010) - We are getting down to crunch time in the Beat the LoCo Experts football picks contest. At the top of our fans leaders chart, Plankster and Michael, both from Ashburn, continue to hold the lead in the race for $100.

They are both 84-15 on the season after going 5-0 last week. They were just two of 18 fans that went unbeaten in this playoff week with Joe of Leesburg taking home the t-shirt as he had the closest tiebreaker score (21-14 Warren County in the actual 14-0 win with most of you thinking it would be a high-scoring affair and none of you saw the Pats getting shut out!) ...

For the record, perfect last week: BobL of Ashburn, Captain Kirk of Leesburg, Cocky Bobcat of Leesburg, Ed of Sterling, Fratt of Ashburn, Jason of Sterling, JB of The Burn, Jungle Jane of Ashburn, Llama Lover of Sterling, Machine Gun Kelly of Broadlands, Ryan of Sterling, Sarah of Winchester, TBonz of Ashburn, Tim of Potomac Falls and valleyvikes2011 of Lovettsville.

Of this group, Tim of Potomac Falls is two games back of the leaders and has a shot at catching them as the season winds down, especially with a coin flip pick of game coming up this week: Broad Run at Briar Woods!

Only 2 games to play this week ... enjoy! Complete the form below and the fan closest (we will be going to the tiebreaker for sure this week!) to the right score in the tiebreaker (as well as going 2-0!) will win a VivaLoudoun t-shirt.

Plankster and Michael continue their battle to win $100 end of the year prize money from the VivaLoudoun Fox under-the-mattress bank account.
