@MGC_07 You gotta do it, man!

You don't even have to have 6 different picks. You could still take the two teams you're the most confident in, wager them at 12 and 10 points. And then the remaining four games aggregate to 20 points. If you take the opposing side with those four underdog picks, and they all win, then you can take the ship.

I’m still considering how I’m going to do it. I’m definitely not going for second place, but it sure does seem hard to pick against Houston and Baylor.

I’ll post them sometime soon. Need time to think over some of them.

You're not going to try and counter my picks to make up some ground? Obviously it would be very tough to come back from 16 points, but your picks are almost identical to mine.


On the other side of the standings, I'll be waiting for @bMORE607 to submit his picks so I can make sure ours are different. The battle for 14th place is where the excitement's at.

yea! I tried to wait you out so I could pick the opposite of your picks, but you iced the kicker and didn't make your picks till like an hour before the games started. I lost that game of chicken and made my picks before yours. Somehow managed to pull out the victory and secure 12th place!

Moral of the story: Good guy wins.

thanks as always @dukedevilz for running this and showing why you are without a doubt one of the 50 all time greatest regular posters on this board!
 
Right! I had to put the school affiliations at the end there, just to show Duke finally came on top. Cuz we sure know it wasn't going to happen any other way this season.

Well, I'll be back next year to give you an actual competition.

Goof stuff. Congrats and thanks for setting it up and keeping it running!
 
🤣 I just realized I never even looked to see who won this. So self absorbed all I did was scan to the bottom of the standing so to see if I won the battle for 12th place.

Congrats @dukedevilz. How'd you do in the fantasy draft league? You might be in the running for Rivals CBB Message Board Sportsman of the Year.

Oregon once again finishes 2nd

You guys did win the conference of champions regular season title, though. That's gotta be extra meaningful this season.

Well, I'll be back next year to give you an actual competition.

Good. Somebody's gotta keep me on my toes.

Haven't look at it in a while. But, I want to say boilerzz is the clear runaway champ. Pretty sure Hail, MGC_07, and GE Nole are all ahead of me, too. And you had 2 All-Americans. So, I may have finished 5th, 6th, or even lower. Took Keyonate Johnson in the 2nd Round and lost him after 4 games. I felt like he could have made Florida a top 10-15 team, and easily been an All-American himself. I'm ready to draft for next season already!

There are still 3 games left - so still a few more win shares and all-tournament honors for a few players to collect. I'll have the final standings out next week.

I legit wasn't waiting you out. I completely forgot. I went to check to see who I was "rooting for" and realized I never submitted anything.
