NCAA Tournament Pick'em

[NCCubFan]

I renewed the group from last year. Those who participated last year should get an invite through Yahoo. For those who didn't participate last year but are interested this year (or for anyone whose e-mail address may have changed since last year) the group ID is 16102 and the password is gocubs.

 

Last year I used a scoring system that included bonus points (based on seed differential) for correctly picking upsets and that was unpopular, so this year I went back to scoring based just on the number of correct picks (with the points per correct pick increasing each round).

A reminder, now that the brackets are up. You can now start making our picks. The deadline to enter and submit picks is before the first game tips off on Thursday (the Tuesday play-in game isn't part of the contest).

It's already official that nobody from our group will win $1 million. ISUCubsFan was the only undefeated participant through the first 7 games, but he picked UTEP over Butler.

Registration for the Second Chance Pick'em contest is now open. There's a $5,000 prize for the top bracket nationwide. I've sent an invitation through Yahoo to everybody who registered for the original contest. Others can join too; it isn't necessary to participate in one contest in order to participate in the other. Group ID 8681; password gocubs.
