Wrong Answer!
Chin up, Wrong Answer!! Listen, we've been at it long enough to know that sometimes free points can just randomly appear out of the blue. Then in some cases, like this week, they don't! Hmmm, okay... it really would've required some extreme wizardry to find an extra 136 points for you in this matchup.
