Professor DW's Quest for the Cup Final Table

7/20/2026

The World Cup has ended and Spain is the Champion. The wild 3rd place match that had England and France putting up 10 goals put the tie breaker total to 307. One contestant was looking for 2 goals in the final to hit the tie breaker question right on the button. David Anders guessed 309 and was tied with 3 other people for the top spot. Joseph Andolino was the only contestant of the top 4 group to have a guess under the tie breaker with the Price is Right rules. Spain did hit the back of the net 3 times but 2 of those goals were called back and Spain settled for the 1-0 win and the final tie breaker score of 308. Joseph Andolino took the win as the only one in the top 4 under the Price is Right rule with a guess of 272. Anders finished 2nd with Jodi Bennett 3rd, Bob Kickner 4th and Kevin Hamrick rounding out the top 5.

Below is a list of our contestants along with everyone’s picks and tiebreaker guesses. Thank you all for participating. Be sure to check out the website elisportsnetwork.com for sports stories, highlights and more Professor DW contests. The next up will be the Professor DW Football Pick’em.
