Way back in Week 1, Arkansas won with a commanding 79 percent of the vote. Shaking off any sort of rust, she was able to easily defeat No. 16 seed South Carolina in the first round of the playoffs by earning 81 percent of the vote. She'll face a tough quarterfinal matchup in No. 9 seed Colorado, who won her first round playoff match against No. 8 Minnesota in a 58-42 upset. Will the Buffaloes cheerleader add another upset to her record or can the top-ranked Razorbacks cheerleader steamroll through yet another opponent? Vote and decide!
The rules: The cheerleader who wins the bracket tournament will be crowned SPiN's College Cheerleader of the Year.
Voting for this matchup ends on Monday, Jan. 7 at noon EST. Official results will be posted shortly after the polls close.
