Final 48 Hours (Withour Kansas and 'Cuse)

Within 48 hours we will know the brackets for the NCAA Tournament and Amanda will be watching 15 experts, sitting in a semi circle on high chairs, breaking everything down, and our pool will be complete.  However, the fun will just be starting for some of us as we prepare for Mon Ami, Lagasse, O'Sheas, Napoleon's, Joe's, and Mr. Monopoly!

As expected, Thursday and Friday destroyed us, but we are still set up for a great finish, we really do have 10 people that have a shot to win.  Below are some highlights to be aware of.
  • The highest possible score anyone can achieve is 23 points (John still has a 50% accuracy rate which is incredible for this type of pool with the upsets that have happened)
  • Amazingly, no one is eliminated officially, but Ron is 1 loss away from being eliminated
  • The standings will have some minor changes as we have some games ending after midnight, but it shouldn't have a major impact unless we see a major upset
  • Jenn - Cal State Fullerton?  For Real?  If you lose by 1 in the pool, you should cancel your flight to Vegas
  • The Great West sucks, I think we don't acknowledge them in 2013
  • Although Young is in 6th, he is in the top 20% in point remaining and can move in to first before anyone notices, he has one of the better shots to win it all

For anyone closely following the conference tournaments, you will notice upsets almost across the board.  Teams such as Kansas, Temple, Syracuse, and Southern Miss have been knocked out, this means a lot of bubbles burst for teams today.

I will e-mail out the standings over the next few days as the conditional formatting still does not work well when I post the excel file through the blog.
