We've got another big winner.
Congratulations to Dean Ridings of Friendsville, who had the only perfect entry in The Daily Times Football Contest last week to win the grand prize of $400.
Ridings managed to pick some pretty big upsets, such as Auburn over Mississippi and Oregon over Southern Cal.
The best of the rest were one-miss entries, so we had to use the tiebreaker to decide the consolation prize winners.
Andy Beal of Louisville guessed closest to the number of points scored in the Tennessee-South Carolina game and wins $50.
Braden Hughes of Friendsville wins $25 for third place.
We'll mail checks to our lucky winners.
This week's grand prize goes back to $100 for a perfect entry.
Fill out the entry form in Tuesday's sports section and return it by 5 p.m. Friday to The Daily Times office.
