2019 NCAA Tournament Contest

[Mavric]

After the first round  .....  some random guy has built a bit of a lead.  But @The Murphinator has a couple extra teams so that will make a difference.

Rosters and Standings

Yeah. I am still looking good

[Mavric]

Well, I technically have the lead.  And I'll enjoy sleeping on that lead for the next few days.

 

But it's really @The Murphinator who is in the driver's seat.  He's 50 points back but has two extra teams so he'll easily make that up.  I'll need a couple of his teams to get beat in the Sweet 16 to have a chance.  Had Duke not managed to get it done today.....

 

@JJ Husker is a bit behind but has a completely different set of teams so if things go his way he could make up ground quickly.  Others can still make a run but having a bunch of similar teams makes it tough.

Yeah Duke definitely got lucky.

[Mavric]

As expected, @The Murphinator surges into the lead.  He still has Duke and Auburn.

 

I hold on to second for now but don't have any teams left.  This game is stupid.  Who's idea was it anyway???

 

But @Minnesota_husker charges into third and still has Gonzaga, Michigan State, Texas Tech and Auburn.  That's some crazy good picking and will be really tough for Murphinator to hold off.  Duke/Michigan State on Sunday will be pivotal.

Sometimes it better to be lucky than good.

[Minnesota_husker]

O boy... Sure hope I can catch up.

#1- Gonzaga

 

#2- Michigan State

#3- Texas Tech

 

#5- Auburn

#6- Iowa State

 

#11- Arizona State

#12- Murray State

 

#13- Northeastern

#16- North Dakota State

 

 

For someone who guessed 3 of the 4 teams, you would think I would have done much better in my brackets.

 

I have also finished dead last or close to last in this almost every year... So this is slightly shocking.

Worst I’ve ever done in this thing.  I do understand everyone has the chance to pick one of the teams, but we may need to look into tweeting something involving the play in teams

[Mavric]

We have a winner. @Minnesota_husker has a 141 point lead and still has Texas Tech.  Congrats!

 

@The Murphinator will finish second.

 

Thanks for playing again this year.  Enjoy the championship game.

I'VE NEVER WON BEFORE!!! WHAT DO I WIN!?!?

 

Do I get access to the Mod board for a day?

 

Do I get to ban someone?

 

A thousand "up points"?

 

Mavric's parking spot at Huskerboard HQ for a week?

grats to minnesota husker on the well earned win.
