Vote for Ole Miss? Pontiac Game Changing Performance
12/8/2008 | Football
Ole Miss is one of 13 schools vying for the Pontiac Game Changing Performance of the Year. A $100,000 general scholarship contribution from Pontiac is on the line for the play voted best of the year by the fans.
Ole Miss was voted as the Pontiac Game Changing Performance for the 13th week of the 2008 NCAA Football Season. The game changing play was senior fullback Jason Cook's 33-yard pass to junior safety Kendrick Lewis on a fake punt that sparked Ole Miss to a 31-13 victory over then-ranked No. 18 LSU. As a result, Ole Miss earned a $5,000 general scholarship contribution from Pontiac.
Now it is up to the fans to determine if the Rebels will receive the ultimate $100,000 scholarship contribution by voting at pontiac.com/ncaa. Four rounds of voting will take us to the BCS Championship game on January 8, where the Pontiac Game Changing Performance of the Year and winner of the $100,000 general scholarship contribution will be announced on FOX.
In addition, for the next four weeks one lucky individual who visits www.pontiac.com/ncaa will win the ultimate "Pick 6" a G6 and a Trip for 6 to this year's BCS National Championship in Miami.
"Pontiac has created a successful program that has a positive impact academically and athletically. Teams get deserved recognition for their accomplishments and all students have an opportunity to benefit from the general scholarship fund, so it's a win-win situation," said Kirk Herbstreit, ESPN GameDay Analyst.
The Pontiac Game Changing Performance recognizes the most dramatic moments that occur in NCAA games across the country, moments that change the outcome of the game or define a season. The program provides fans the opportunity to vote on the performance they believe is the biggest game changer. The competition began August 31 and will continue for the entire 2008 NCAA football season.
