OMG!

@jwrobel21, @ngiftakis , @Camelwak1257, @CLew21, @nrunkel, and @BomboRiviera all finished Saturday night with 15 points. All have the same picks for the final three games Sunday, so those three matches will all go to tiebreaker!

@Rmilia1 rejected my ideas of pistols-at-10-paces duels, or even the less bloody rock-paper-scissors, so I guess we’ll have to wait for Sunday’s 3pm EST UTSA-Rice game to be over and see how the tiebreakers turned out.

Good luck all!

Just a heads up guys

The final 4 is gong to be different

You’ll all be competing vs each other but just importantly it’s conference tourney week so matchups aren’t go by to be dry days in advance

Do I’ll be posting the games one day at a time

Thursdays ganes will go up Wednesday night. Fridays on Thursday night etc

Picks each day will be due by 11 AM EST

So you’re going to have a small window to get picks in so no jacking around m if you’re late your late. No exceptions

Picks this week need to be DMdx reach day to @StndrDeviant not posted publicly

Any questions holler

Just to underscore the point: you will NOT post your picks publicly. You’ll send a DM to me each day before the deadline. If you forget and post publicly, you’re only tipping your hand to your opponents. Hopefully @Rmilia1 will get the mods to lock the thread immediately after he posts the games.

And I know many conference tournaments start games early in the day. For example (and I’m not saying these will be games Rmilia1 will pick; that’s his call and I doubt even he knows this far in advance which games he’ll choose), here are a few games from the Big Ten tournament schedule:

Wednesday, March 11
G3: No. 9 Iowa vs. Game 1 winner, noon (Peacock)
G4: No. 12 Washington vs. No. 13 USC, 2:30 p.m. (Peacock)

Thursday, March 12

  • G7: No. 8 Ohio State vs. Game 3 winner, noon (BTN)
  • G8: No. 5 Wisconsin vs. Game 4 winner, 2:30 p.m. (BTN)

Friday, March 13

  • G11: No. 1 Michigan vs. Game 7 winner, noon (BTN)
  • G12: No. 4 Nebraska vs. Game 8 winner, 2:30 p.m. (BTN)

If you live in the Central time zone, we’re talking 11 a.m., and if you live in the west, that’s 9 a.m.! So set your alarms and reminders and tell Alexa to yell at you!

Congrats again.
