*****The OUHoops/ESPN NCAA Bracket Challenge*****

I am confused with the ranking. It shows me at 19th but I have more points than several people in front of me.

You're doing it wrong.

The PPR column is the total points you COULD have if you win the rest of the games you can still win.

I was looking at the total points column. I scored 220 from round 1 and have 120 today. When I went to confirm my memory it had refreshed and moved me to 5th.

I really need my St. Louis over Mich St upset pick to come true tomorrow and give me a boost.

Temple boned me. I picked Ohio over Michigan, which I thought would give me a leg up with Temple then walking into the Sweet Sixteen, where the majority of people had Michigan. Of course, then Temple has to go ahead and lose to USF.
VCU choking that game against Indiana away also didn't help me today...

 

[WTSooner]

At least one of FSU and Marquette making the FF is probably the only thing that could save me at this point, and honestly, I may need them both. Marquette has a shot, but after seeing FSU's first round game, and how good 'Cuse and Wisky are playing, I would like to have that pick over again.

 

[DenverSooner]

It is going to be interesting to see who wins this thing. Because the later rounds are worth so much more, you can still come from way back to win this.

My borther entered a bracket in a national pool where he simply went with seeding on every pick. He is in the 99th percentile. That should teach us all something. Picking upsets may not be the way to go.

 

[DenverSooner]

Some impressive picks. At least two people had Florida and one person got all four teams correct.

 

[WTSooner]

A girl in my office actually had Ohio beating UNC tonight. I told her if she picked Ohio that far, and it held up on the court, we should just give her the pot of money regardless of the rest of the tournament.

 

[DenverSooner]

I need KU and Ohio State to win in the next round.

 

[DenverSooner]

SoonerMcGavin gets both teams correct today. Pretty impressive given neither team was a number one seed.

 

[Sooner McGavin]

Thanks man. I lucked out and got all 4 right. My first bracket in two years.

Don't confuse luck with skill. There was only a minor amount of luck involved.

Disagree.

There are so many toss up games each round, that there is actually a lot of luck involved. That is why women that don't watch a single game all year can turn in winning brackets.

Getting all four teams correct involves a great deal of knowledge. Did he catch a few breaks? Sure but he is the guy with all four teams.

I can assure you when I win next weekend, it will be all about skill.

Not to mention I think NC beats KU with their starting pg. Grrrrrr.......

 

[DenverSooner]

I am pretty sure if Ohio State beats KU I win.

 

[DenverSooner]

Today we might know the winner.

 

[StatGeek]

Just checked the standings; I was shocked to see that I wasn't in last place! Some of you guys suck!!!!

 

[DenverSooner]

Watch out for Pillmanj coming from nowhere to win it all. He picked Ohio State to win it all. If that happens, I am pretty sure he wins this thing.

 

[DenverSooner]

I think McGavin won it. He got all four teams correct in the final four and got the final game correct. I don't think anyone has KU to win it all, so it doesn't matter who wins tomorrow.

That last 10 seconds of the first half was bad. Had Ohio State converted rather than had a turn over for a last second layup and theoretically Ohio State wins that game.

 

[Sooner McGavin]

Yep. Awesome! I think I nailed it. Great Final Four picks. Let me know what I need to do to claim the prize!
