MONTICELLO, Ark. – UAM Athletics and The Office of Student Programs and Activities are thrilled to introduce The Boll Weevil Field Goal Challenge during the 2026 Football Season!

At each home football game this season, one randomly selected UAM student (total of 5) will have the opportunity to kick a field goal from the 25-yard line (approximately a 35-yard field goal) for a chance to win extra Declining Balance.

The challenge begins with a $50 Declining Balance prize. If the kick is unsuccessful, the prize will roll over and increase by $50 at the next home game, creating a potential jackpot of up to $250 at the final home game of the season. If a kick is good, the prize will be reset to $50.

To be eligible, students must:

– Be currently enrolled as a UAM student (Freshman through Graduate).

– Submit one (1) official contest entry through the designated UAM online entry form.

– Follow both the UAM Athletics and UAM Student Programs and Activities Instagram accounts at the time eligibility is verified.

– Be able to attend the designated home football game if selected.

Only one (1) entry per student is permitted for the duration of the contest. Multiple entries may result in disqualification.

All entering contestants are required to read the Official Rules and FAQs, which can be found here.

To enter your name into the Boll Weevil Field Goal Challenge, fill out the form here.

Remember, One Kick Could Get You Extra Declining Balance!
