New Goal: One Million Votes by FINALS!

Only two more weeks of regular season left for our furry friend, and as of now he is STILL undefeated. That is not the only goal that Big Blue has for his fans, he wants to get to one million votes by finals. One would think that a million is a LARGE number, but in all reality Big Blue is just 112,384 votes shy of his goal. With two weeks left he needs just over 56,000 each week, and I think that we can get him there! Keep the votes coming in for the Monarch, text ‘bigblue’ to 69866 or you can vote online at CapitalOneBowl.com.

In other Monarch news, the football team at Old Dominion guaranteed themselves another winning season in its short two year history. With a blowout over Savannah State, 57-9, the Monarchs will finish with at least six in the W column.

Week 10:

Well, as many can see, Big Blue earned his tenth matchup win last week verse Joe Bruin of UCLA. Joe Bruin did not have a chance against Big Blue’s voters even in day one. An hour after voting began Big Blue had over a thousand votes while Joe Bruin barely made it to one hundred. This was the story for the rest of the week, Monarch domination. The week ended with Big Blue on TOP once again with 52,047 votes to Joe Bruin’s 14,898.

Week 11:

This weeks Big Blue goes up against a foe with a similar name, Big Red of Western Kentucky. Though Big Red is not a Lion, Tiger, or Bear, he still has potential to put up a good fight against our proud Monarch. Big Red stands close to the playoffs with a 5-5 record and is the number 8 seed thus far in the Capital One Mascot of the Year Challenge. Big Red will be trying all he can to give Big Blue his first loss in order to make it to the playoffs. HELP Big Blue stay on TOP!
