SUMMARY OF TODAY'S CONTEST BELOW THE VIDEOS

Here are the last few episodes of 'The Dozen: Trivia Competition'. You can view all of the episodes by clicking this link right here.

Go figure… a week after Smitty snuck an answer in under the buzzer, Brandon & PFT do it themselves and cause them controversy. Ultimately, the right call was made in the end, but a rule tweak will be happening to ensure people don't just shout things as I am going to click the buzzer.

Despite the controversy, it was a great match of back-and-forths and flexing of strengths. In the end, as always with newcomers, it came down to second-guessing. Coach Duggs will learn the hard way after the BJ's Brewhouse question in the restaurant category to always go with your gut. Had they done that, they would've won the game.
