I made 2 mistakes. Well, I made many mistakes but 2 that really bother me. I did 2 things I normally don't in 1. Pick Villanova to win a few games 2. not pick Izzo to make a run.

I was looking at me not picking Utah and thinking, what the heck? When they did the selection show I figured they had a chance to go to the top 8. And then didn't pick them?

Hi VLF.....

I think you miscalculated my score.....

I won 5 in the Round 3 (Sweet 16) for another 25 points, on top of my 123 at that time. So the score was actually 148.

Then in Round 4 (Elite Eight) I won 3 more ( Kentucky, Wisconsin, and Duke) for another 8 points each bringing my total points total up another 24 points. So the points total should be at 172 instead of 148.

OK...3 teams out of 4 for the final 4, not bad. Go Kentucky...

VLF....

Laker lanny has Kentucky and Wisconsin meeting in the final match. But they play each other in the final 4, so this is impossible....

He has Wisconsin winning it all, so I guess he is going with Wisconsin over kentucky in the final 4 game against each other.... That would make sense and be fair for all.........

Lanny has VLF locked in his basement.

I typically populate the spreadsheet all at once, but had to do it piece meal this year. In W's case I actually forgot to add his picks in the third round. So I will make sure to check everybody's picks and scores before we have a winner. One thing, there is a chance we are camping next week, so I can either email the spreadsheet to someone or announce the winner when I return. I guess if I get the scores right after the semi final games it will be easy to see who picked the winner and how the points work out.

I got back from camping at the beach this afternoon and went over all the picks again and made quite a few corrections.

Laker_Lifer_25 - 189
Vishnu -182
VLF - 180
bonkers - 179

Alpha - 169
Chronicle - 165
Mege - 162
Dave20 - 153
fiendishoc - 133
