Quick guessing game

OK, I've just written a post on this for the Guardian blog, which will probably pop up some time tomorrow so there is time for a quick guessing game.

What I've done is go through all 300 author profiles on the commentisfree site, noting a) whether they mentioned which university they went to and b) whether it was Oxford or Cambridge. Guess:

1) how many out of 300 mentioned a university? (clue: a hell of a lot of them are blanks or one-line bios seemingly put there by the system)

2) of those who mentioned a university, what percentage of cases was it Oxford or Cambridge?

(my own profile mentioned both Oxford and LBS before I change it; if you hurry you can probably still see it as the static pages only update with quite a lag)
