ANOTHER NCAA tourney game

[Butter]

A friend of mine posted this game for another message board I frequent, and I thought it might be fun to run it here.

Here are the rules:

The premise is simple: Pick five of the 65 NCAA tournament teams. You'll then get points based on the seeding of the team and how many games they win. So while it's good to pick the winner, a couple of well-placed upset-minded teams going far can be just as valuable.

For each game a team you pick wins, you get the same number of points that matches that team's seed. You also get bonus points equal to what round they won in.

Say you pick Duke... If the Blue Devils win their first game, you get 2 points (1 for being a No. 1 seed, and one for the first-round win). A win in their second game nets you an additional three points (1 for the seed, 2 for the second-round win). Should the Dookies go all the way, that would be worth a total of 27 points (2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 = 27).

You might think that picking a high-seeded upset would get you a lot of points. That's true to some extent, but not always. Last year's two tournament darlings, No. 7 West Virginia (Elite Eight) and No. 12 Wisconsin-Milwaukee (Sweet Sixteen) each netted 27 points. The same exact score as National Champs UNC. In fact, the highest scoring team last year was Final Four-bound Michigan State - the No. 5 seed Spartans racked up 30 points ((5 *4) + (1 + 2 + 3 + 4)) on the way to St. Louis.

So to enter - all you have to do is pick five teams and list them in this thread. You have until Thursday, noon Eastern Time - the start of the first games - to get your picks in. I'll compile the points and give scoring updates at the end of each day.

If you want to change your picks, just edit them in your original post. Any post having an edit time of after noon Eastern time Thursday, March 16th will be ineligible.

Please list your picks as follows:

We play a very similar game to this in our group of friends. I never 'fill out a bracket' anymore because I vastly prefer this type of game. However, I think it is much more fun picking 10 teams instead of 5 (this is what we do). Also, we give bonuses for having a final four team and the national champion in your list.

Interesting strategy, picking first round opponents.

I'll take
UConn
Iona
Wisconsin Milwaukee
Pitt
Arkansas

[hoopsguy]

The thought there is that I don't think highly of Tennessee, but I think the winner of the 2nd round game has a better chance to get two wins than Winthrop in the first round.

Quik posted in another thread on the notion that there is little value in picking the 15 over the 2, unless it is a weighted pool. Well, this one is weighted and I do think that Tennessee is weak. So I'm taking a shot with the first round teams who would get Tennessee (or perhaps Winthrop) in the 2nd round.

Bottom line, it is a strategy as opposed to a D'oh!

[Butter]

I'm entering too.

Boston College (4)

I said interesting, not awful. Thanks for the insight, that always makes these things more interesting.

[Samdari]

Just looked at the bracket again and decided I'd like to change my 5th team. Is this allowed?

If you want to change your picks, just edit them in your original post. Any post having an edit time of after noon Eastern time (Thursday) will be ineligible.

I'll give this a (biased) go...

UNCW (9)
Geargetown (7)
Villanova (1)
Tennessee (2)
Memphis (1)

[wade moore]

And a side note:

The brackets that I'm doing with my friends on CBSSportsline use this scoring method for EVERYTHING. So that changes logic for picking your brackets a bit compared to the FOFC Yahoo League, but I just went ahead and copied mine from CBS over to Yahoo.

[Butter]

You can put in 5 teams, Wade.

[Kam]

Villanova (1)
Gonzaga (2)
Florida (3)
Nevada (5)
West Virginia (6)

[wade moore]

You can put in 5 teams, Wade.

Oops, thanks, updated my post.

[Honolulu_Blue]

Good luck, gentlemen... and oliegirl. :)

[Butter]

I'm entering too.

Boston College (4)
Wichita State (7)

w00t!

[Samdari]

Wisconsin Milwaukee

Easily too.

I will go on record right now, however, as saying Iona was a stupid pick.

[Butter]

Day 1 leaders:

Lathum and ram each have 20, thanks to hitting all 3 of their Day 1 picks, including a sub-10 seed winning. I'm happily 3rd with 17 points, but my Utah State pick didn't pan out.

Most picks come today... but it'll get real interesting after the weekend's games.

[wade moore]

Ugh, I might be wishing i picked GMU instead of UNCW.

[Lathum]

woohoo go A&M

[hoopsguy]

Butter, Wichita State is looking solid for us so far ...

Just missed on Pacific - would have been a real boost to have them to at least the 2nd round, particularly with Montana as the opponent.

[Lathum]

go A&M!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hoopsguy]

Glad to have A&M out (no offense, Lathum) - didn't need to see people racking up points on these guys. I'm in a pay pool for this with the same picks I have here and I expect that some of the others in that one have the Aggies.

[Lathum]

damn A&M. I hope the money pool works out for you guys.

32. Huckleberry (UConn, TX) - 12

timmynausea is threatening to wrap this up after the Sweet 16 games, as he has both Georgetown and West Virginia in those games... a potential 19 points with wins for both there. But TazFTW is the only player with all 5 original teams still remaining, including 2 4-seeds that could ring up a potential 7 points each with upset wins in the Sweet 16.

WVU, Georgetown, and Wichita State were the big scorers from the weekend. No one took Bradley and the potential 29 points they would've brought, or George Mason and the 25 points they would've given. Wichita State has the highest potential right now, considering they likely have the easiest game of any 6+ seed remaining.... 10 more points for their next win, while UConn and Duke can only get 9 points each by just making it to the Final 4.

[wade moore]

Damnit, damnit, damnit.. I picked the wrong CAA team... I would be in first...

[hoopsguy]

I feel your pain, wade. Had Pacific been able to hold a five point lead with less than a minute left against BC I would be right there. As is, I need another Wichita State win and some help.

[Lathum]

woohoo!! if only my money pools went this well

[TazFTW]

But TazFTW is the only player with all 5 original teams still remaining, including 2 4-seeds that could ring up a potential 7 points each with upset wins in the Sweet 16.

Excellent. I could still have a Final Four of UConn, BC, UCLA, and Texas/LSU.

[JeeberD]

#7 ain't too shabby. Hopefully my final four stands up for a couple more rounds... :)

[TazFTW]

UCLA, Texas, and LSU move on for me. Texas and LSU moving on gives me at least 1 Final Four team.

[Butter]

Taz does indeed jump into the lead, but Georgetown and Wichita State can provide some big points tonight.

[kingfc22]

Butter - do you have an updated list for the standings?

This is how it looks going into tonight.

[bbor]

I just wanna beat Jeebs :)

[bbor]

Damn...nice pickin taz

[JeeberD]

Never happen, bbor! :p

Looks like Taz is gonna run away with this...

[Butter]

Taz has a comfy lead, but if 4 of his teams lose, and the right combination of other teams advance, it's still a race. Especially if Georgetown and/or Wichita State can somehow make the Final 4. That's pretty unlikely, but still possible.

[TazFTW]

Go George Mason and Florida!

ARGH!... really wishing I had picked Mason instead of UNCW.. I just did a toss-up for the two CAA teams..

As for the tourney bracket #2, I don't know HOW I'm in first (I'm the Hoodlums)...

I did a breakdown of results with my picks. for me to win I have to have Nova win the whole thing. LSU beat TX and Uconn & UCLA advance w/ UCLA in the finals.
I think it said I would beat you by like 4 points or less. Otherwise it's yours to lose in almost all the other cases.

[TazFTW]

Go George Mason and Florida!

w00t! Is it over? Or is there still a chance for me to 'zag it?

No one picked George Mason, so essentially this contest is over. Some points can be made up on the leaders by anyone who picked Florida, but the closest scorer to Taz who has Florida is Honolulu_Blue, and he's 26 points behind... with Florida only in line for a max. of 17 points more if they were to win the national title.

Taz and hoopsguy both have UCLA and LSU as their 2 teams left, and WVUFan's lone remaining team is LSU... so hoopsguy can leap into 2nd with a UCLA win over LSU in the Final 4.

But as for 1st, TazFTW has locked up the initial NCAA Underdog picks championship! Congrats! You would win something, but I'm cheap. So, you just win bragging rights.

If anyone had picked George Mason, I might've sent you a gift card.

Nice work, Taz.

Thanks for running this, Butter.

No one picked George Mason, so essentially this contest is over. Some points can be made up on the leaders by anyone who picked Florida, but the closest scorer to Taz who has Florida is Honolulu_Blue, and he's 26 points behind... with Florida only in line for a max. of 17 points more if they were to win the national title.

Taz and hoopsguy both have UCLA and LSU as their 2 teams left, and WVUFan's lone remaining team is LSU... so hoopsguy can leap into 2nd with a UCLA win over LSU in the Final 4.

But as for 1st, TazFTW has locked up the initial NCAA Underdog picks championship! Congrats! You would win something, but I'm cheap. So, you just win bragging rights.

If anyone had picked George Mason, I might've sent you a gift card.

Butter, I'm seriously so pissed... I tossed a coin between UNCW and GMU and lost..

[Butter]

That sucks, wade. You would be running away with this thing by now if you had.

[TazFTW]

w00t! I will now buy myself a cookie.

Thanks for running the game, Butter.

[Vince]

Sweet, top 10. I'll second the kudos by Taz -- thanks for running this Butter.

[Butter]

No problem, guys (and gals). Thanks for entering!

[kingfc22]

Woot! 7th with LSU still left. Maybe I can move into the top 5.

[hoopsguy]

Taz, just to give you an idea of how good your picks are ... I'm in this same format pool (small differences in the scoring) with the same picks I used here and I'm in position to win the pool with a UCLA title. I'll be in 2nd if UCLA loses to Florida in the title game and 3rd if it is a LSU/George Mason championship game.

That pool has 100 people in it.


Bottom line, your picks are even better than they look when limited just to our group.

Honolulu_Blue with a big leap late thanks to being the only player with both UCLA and Florida... but it was not enough to overcome poor showings by Duke and Michigan State. In the end, no one could overcome the lead taken by Taz, who nailed 4 of the Final 8, and also had BC, a Sweet 16 team.
