Re: The Official NCAA Tournament Predictions Thread

whoever asked how my picks went...3-1 on day one ;)
 
Re: The Official NCAA Tournament Predictions Thread

Nobody correctly guessed all 6 results today. The max possible at this point is 120 points, here is the top 10 + ties...

Leaderboard:
1. NMUFAN21 - 100 (Max Possible: 160)
2. jerphisch - 90 (Max Possible: 230)
2. mpereira - 90 (Max Possible: 150)
4. jimmie2dog - 80 (Max Possible: 260)
4. ScottA - 80 (Max Possible: 260)
4. San Tropez - 80 (Max Possible: 220)
4. redwings8831 - 80 (Max Possible: 220)
4. dubbie31 - 80 (Max Possible: 220)
4. Xavier Iser - 80 (Max Possible: 140)
4. Onion Man - 80 (Max Possible: 100)
4. mcfarljd - 80 (Max Possible: 100)

The Maximum Possible that anyone can get is 270. Three posters can still get to that amount: Jeff_Jackson_for_Pres., HockeyJock and siouxrock. Nobody will correctly pick the Frozen Four. The odds are good that we'll have fewer than 10% (7 out of 70) pick 3 of the 4.
 
Re: The Official NCAA Tournament Predictions Thread

Well, here is the leaderboard heading into the Frozen Four:

1. NMUFAN21 - 120 points
2. jerphisch - 110 points
2. mpereira - 110 points
2. Jeff_Jackson_for_Pres. - 110 points
5. jimmie2dog - 100 points
5. redwings8831 - 100 points

Congratulations to NMUFAN21, mpereira and redwings8831. They were the only posters to get 3 of the 4 Frozen Four teams (all had UND, UMD and Michigan).

At this point, there are only a few different posters that can actually win the whole thing, depending on who wins.

If...

Notre Dame wins - Jeff_Jackson_for_Pres. will win
Minnesota Duluth wins - Hockey Jock will win
Michigan wins - dubbie31 will win

If North Dakota wins, it depends on who they play in the title game...

If...

North Dakota beats Notre Dame - Jeff_Jackson_for_Pres. will win
North Dakota beats Minnesota Duluth - jimmie2dog will win

Tiebreakers will not factor in, but I will post who had the closest to actual tiebreaker scenarios.

FS23, can't you alter my stats some? You are making me look bad. ;) :D
 
Re: The Official NCAA Tournament Predictions Thread

In our NCAA basketball pool, the person with the lowest point total gets a 'refund' of their 'entry fee.' While there is nothing to refund here, how am I doing as far as having the worst overall predictions? I have to think I'd be well in the running for lowest overall score!

Ironically, I have already won the lowest score in my NCAA basketball pool.... however, since we allow participants to enter two brackets (so that a person can pick one 'with the heart' and the other 'with the head'); I may also finish in 2nd place depending upon what happens on Saturday. That would be an interesting outcome, to be nearly best and worst in the same pool! (we have 'prizes' for top three finishers).

You are in the group at T-66th w/30 points. If North Dakota wins against Michigan, Federal League will move up, so you would be T-67th. lugnut92 would be the winner of the fewest points contest. They are stuck at 20 w/no room for improvement. :)
