It would make the game more fun if I knew what result to root for.

Assuming no OT, does the winner of the 4th Quarter win the Game also?

What are your numbers???

[fearless]

What are your numbers???

3 on the left. 0 on top.

Payout:

1a. $150 per quarter (right way score), $150 for final (right way score)
1b. $50 per quarter (wrong way score), $50 for final (wrong way score)

I think top is Steelers so we will go with it as example....That would make steelers 0 and cards 3...ok....So if the first quarter ends with a score of Arizona 13 Steelers 0 than you win.... You would also win with Az 13-10 since you still have the 3,0 combo....Each quarter goes this way and at the end of each quarter someone wins...so if you have third quarter Arizona 33 to Steelers 20 you win again... Now if the numbers are switched and you win Steelers 33 to Arizona 20 you win a wrong way (which pays less but still wins)......At the end of the game the final score wins as well as the fourth quarter...so barring overtime you win double..... Hope that makes sense
