Match #9 Results
Super Mario Bros. 92.21%
Madden NFL 7.79%

Yesterday Super Mario Bros. exceeded already high expectations against the long running but not loved Madden series. The 92.21% victory was the biggest blowout since Snake/Tanner, and the third biggest blowout of all time. Mario Bros. also became the second contest entrant ever to bring in more than 100,000 votes, breaking the record set 8 days ago by The Legend of Zelda. Could Mario be a real threat to Final Fantasy? Today all 164 predictions were for Mario and the consensus was Mario with 86.14%. The average score was 43.60%.

Best Five Picks:
1) Pats_Dynasty - Super Mario Bros. 92.21% (+50.00)
2) swirldude - Super Mario Bros. 92.11% (+49.90)
3) Jecht - Super Mario Bros. 92.04% (+49.83)
4) Big Bob - Super Mario Bros. 92.00% (+49.79)
4) red sox 777 - Super Mario Bros. 92.00% (+49.79)

Today's best predictor is Pats_Dynasty, with a perfect prediction! This is his first top 5 prediction ever, and also the first perfect prediction since the Ganondorf/Auron match last summer. The second highest scoring prediction belongs to swirldude, marking his 8th ever top 5 prediction. Jecht has the third best prediction, also his first ever top 5. Tied for fourth are Oracle newcomer Big Bob and veteran red sox 777, with his 22nd ever top 5 prediction.
