Alright, I'll get in too (although I probably shouldn't spend the extra money)

$10 for the Penn State win
$10 for a MAC championship game win or bowl win
$5 per (other) regular season win
$1 per TD.

Glad to contribute. The Penn State beatdown is the most important win in OU football history IMHO so it was worth $300 to me and to be there for it made it even more sweet..

Welcome in, CATman.  Love the 'every week in the top 25 category.

Can anyone verify if we had a sack against PSU?  I can't tell from the game stats on ohiobobcats.com.

Pending the answer to the sack question, total after one week is $573.24.  Solid.  But we need more participants.  We have 11 now.  That's only one side of the ball.  It's not about how much you're in for; it's that you're in.



My categories:  $18.04 per win, $10 per takeaway, $15 for each game in which we hold the oppo to 15 or less, and $7 per sack.

Last night's game was a good one for my challenge pledge.  The attendance (if it holds up as largest this year) will mean a donation of $258.93.  

Home victory means $10.

I am changing my cheerleader push up pledge to be the largest number of push ups by cheerleaders in the season.

Last nights game will generate 7+14+21+24+31+38+45+48+51=$279

I'll take the bait although I am on a tight budget...

$10 per win

MAC Championship - $50 (in addition to the $10 for winning it.)

Bowl Win - $50 (in addition to the $10 for winning it.)

Finish the season in the Top 25  - $100

2nc--you are a force!  MCFanatic--excellent!

Totals may be posted a bit late this week as the Challenge will need time to hire staff needed to handle the big math!

Oh. Sorry.  Forgot about this after the Norfolk game.

Norfolk State -  $225.24

UMass  =  $208.24

Season total to date:  $2070.13.

Participants, if you want details of what I have for your total, pm me.

I must express a certain disdain for the low participation here by the faithful; only 12 of us are in.  Certain; this is top 25?

I'm in, although I'm also on a tight budget, here's what I can pledge.

-$5 per win. Amount doubled for every game we go undefeated (i.e. I'll pay $10 for the first 5 games, since we are still 5-0. This weekend if we win, i'll pay another $10. Say we are 6-1 by the BYE week, I'll pay $5 for each subsequent game after the loss...just because I want to make things complicated).
-An extra $10 if we finish the regular season undefeated
-$25 if we win the MAC Championship
-$25 for a bowl win
-An extra $10 for a win over Miami (so I'll pay $20 if we win that game, and are still undefeated)

Sorry I didn't see this sooner.

THANKS FOR BRINGING THIS BACK!!!!!!  I don't need too much incentive to root hard for the cats and for good things to come OUr way but this has always been fun.  Here are my pledges for this year.

1. $10 for each home win
2. $25 for each away win
3. $20 for each post season game played in
4. $40 for each post season win 
5. $1 for each pushup the cheerleaders get to do during the homecoming game. (when my daughter cheered the cheerleaders did as many  pushups as OHIO's total score after each score.  Example: if OHIO scores 3 touchdowns then a field goal then another touchdown the pushups would be 7+14+21+24+31=97)  Here is hoping for a high scoring game
6. 1 cent for each person in attendance at Peden Stadium for the largest official attendance during the season. 
7. $10 for each number of penalties under 5 for each game.

GO CATS



I'm in for this.

Sure, I'll take the bait.  Already in your tally is the $50 I committed with the win over Penn State. 

If we get into either poll (AP or coaches) and stay there consecutive weeks, I'll tack on another $50.

Good on all who are participating.  But c'mon, we're at #23--time for some of you non-paticipants to put pledge where fanship is.  JUMP IN, PLEASE!  We gotta get to $10,000...at least.

I'm on a VERY tight budget (student loan payments suck), but I can do this. That means I already owe $28, and I hope I have to pay the max, which is $105 by my calculations (winning both MAC Championship and a bowl). I'll throw in an extra $10 if we make a BCS Bowl and $10 more if we win that BCS Bowl.

So an undefeated season with a BCS win would cost me $125.
