Don't gloat Andy, just kidding, but only an act of God will come between you and the freak.

I'm not 100% sure yet but I'm going to email you to get your address just incase. That way if you do win I can get it out asap incase you may want to plant it this year. I will probably get the addresses of the top 5-6 to cover all my bases.

Not gloating,just looked at my bracket tonight for the first time since I filled it out. Didn't even know who I had in the final 4 other than Kentucky! I checked the brackets below mine and they are pretty much the same as mine so..........I'm thinking I may have already won. Which kinda FREAKS me out! lol

That happens to a person or 2 each year pete. All I have been able to figure out is when a person pushes submit their may not be a slot filled out ( you drag the team over and think it's there but it isn't) . That's just a guess, I don't know for sure.

The only way I can loose is if Ohio State wins the championship. Which is who I would be rooting for out of the 4 teams left.

I'd hate to be watching the Bucks play in a championship game if I were you Patch. Do you root for them to win or to lose?

Myself and Bathabitat are both tied for second and have a chance to win yet also. If ohio state beats kansas, then we will each get an additional 160 points for that win because we both picked ohio state to make it to the championship game. The first place entry has kentucky vs kansas in the championship and myself and bathabitat both have kentucky vs ohio state. Since we are both tied in points currently and if kentucky plays ohio state and kentucky wins, then it will come down to the tie breaker points between bathabitat and myself. He has 123 combined points for the championship game and I have 132. The closest to the real score total would then win. So still some other players besides those with ohio state winning it all.

Yeah, your right Shazzy. I missed that scenario. Guess I'll root for Kansas than if O.U. wins I'll root for them. I'm not a big Calipari fan though he's due for a championship and K.U. is very strong. Good luck to all,especially Kansas!

Here's a question for Scott & Jeff because it's never come down to the wire for the final score to determine the winner. If Kentucky beats OSU in the finals do we take the total score & go with who's closests. Jeff has 132 & I think Scott has 123.

I haven't done the math, but the champion pick is worth 320 points so the osu champion picks might have a shot if osu wins it all.

Same here, I'm just preparing for a possible tie between you and Scott.

That is how we do it in the bar pool I am in also Paul. You will see scott accidently wrote the winning numbers flip flopped, but we all get what he meant. He picked the final to to 63 to 60 totaling 123. Me with 67 to 65 or 132. So if that scenario plays out, 128 and above I would win. 127 and beloow scott would win. If you let the computer determine the winner with that scenario it might not be fair cuz it will not understand that you can't have 60 as a winning score and 63 as the losing score as scott punched it in. That is how I see it Paul, but let me know if someone sees it different. Its all for fun anyways.

same here Jeff, I saw he wrote it backwards but we all know he meant different. And your way sounds fair. went backed and looked and if Kentucky loses in the semis then Lewis5533 ( don't know who it is) & Mason LeBlanc moves way up to pull even and then if OSU wins I believe they over take you 3. But that's only if Kentucky loses in the semis because they both have Baylor in the finals

Nice job this year Paul as usual. I love the madness. It has been fun and it is texciting to see how close it is this year. If the Scott and Shazzy scenario plays out it will be the first time in 20 years I have seen it come down to a tie breaker. Crazy.....its the madness!!!!!

A lot of ifs still, but Shazzy's scenario seems generously fair for the tie breaker. I'm guessing we're both way too low in total score given how those teams have been scoreing. In that case Shazzy's got me beat, I think. We'll see.
I've got OSU winning in my office pool - for $$ - so I might be rooting harder for them. :)

I've already got a few address's from past contests but I'll get all those in the running so I can send it out as soon as it's deceided just incase someone wants to plant it this year. I have one from the SNGPG promo pac I got this year & it's going in the ground this season.
