***2024-25 Pick'Em Week 18***

Didn't want to start a new thread just to ask but what's up with the Braden Smith transfer rumors? For some reason theres posters on Rupp Rafters thinking/hoping he transfers to UK next year. Seems like a weird rumor.
I’d be shocked. Dude is a fixture at Purdue and makes good money. Obviously someone offering life changing money would and should cause someone to think about it but I’d still be very surprised if that happened.

Magoon Gwath will be back tonight for San Diego State. One of the best shot blockers in the country (2nd highest block rate in the country). SDSU is 3-3 without him. He can completely change the complexion of a basketball game.

I think I'll leave UNC at 5 on the Pick'Em side. But, I think this game could go either way, depending on Gwath's health.
 
I'll try to update scores tomorrow, including dropping the lowest scores. But, I feel I need to get the games in first to allow sufficient time.

Same bonus points as prior years..


Pick One Underdog that will win.
-8 points if it's a 16 seed, 7 points if it's a 15 seed... All the way down to 1 point for a 9 seed winning.

Pick One Higher Sees that will lose:
-8 points if you correctly pick the 1 seed losing, 7 points if you correctly pick the 2 seed losing... All the way down to picking the 8 seed losing, which is worth 1 point.

Feel free to double-down and pick the same team (i.e. 16 combined points if you think Norfolk State beats Florida).
