There are only two weekends left in the football season. This is what it's all about, it just gets bigger and bigger, and each outcome grows more valued and precious. And, I might add, even more tasty.

Of course, we're talking about Pigskin Picks.

Here's what you can win this weekend, a value of over $170!

* The party sub of your choice from Jefferson City Sub Shop, which has the best subs in town;

* FIVE value meals from McDonald's, 1425 Mo. Blvd.;

* A $25 gift certificate to J.Pfenny's;

* A $25 gift certificate to Spectators;

* and a free service call, a $70 value, from Jeff City Appliance Service.

As you might know, there are only two games this weekend. Thus, we will have three tiebreakers, just in case. You are not be competing against me, you're competing against each other.
 
The champ will be announced on Pigskin Picks, and by ROD SMITH during one of his sports broadcasts. Send your picks to tloeffler@krcg.com prior to this week's deadline of 2 p.m. SUNDAY. Last week's winner --- with a perfect week and the winner on the tiebreaker --- was Andrew Mason.

You can't lose, you can only win $170 worth of stuff! And if think this is big, just wait until the Super Bowl.

Good luck!
