NCAA Tourny Survivor pool- Season 3 Picks are up!!

Lathum · 03-08-2007, 10:30 AM

This will be the third year in a row for this, the last 2 have been lots of fun, I posted the links below.

We need 16 people so if you want to sign up just say your in. If there is alot of interest we can bump it to 32 people.

This is how it works. Each person starts with 4 teams, one from each region. So for example I would start with UCLA, Pitt, MSU, and Texas. Then using the point spread your team matches up against someone elses team.

So for example I have UCLA and Jeeber has Central Florida. If UCLA is a -25 favorite they have to cover the spread. If they do I move on with UCLA, if they don’t cover then I lose UCLA and Jeeber takes them over and moves on with them.

This is a lot of fun. Once we get 16 people I will randomly assign each person 4 teams. I thought about having a draft but I don’t think we would have the time, and the structure of something like this makes it impossible to cheat, however, since some people obviously have alma mater’s and favorites I though it wold be fun to be able to trade schools, but it would have to be in the same bracket and we’ll say the deadline is 10:00 Thursday morning on day one of the tourny. I will update where we are at after each round.

If there is a tie the team with the fewest turnovers moves on.

All of the betting lines will come from wagerline.com

first 16 are guarenteed, anyone after that is SOL until we get to 32, last year we we made 32 with no problem so I'm not worried about it.

lol, i wasn't worried. We had no problem last year. I hope everyone has as much fun as they did last year.

ntndeacon · 03-11-2007, 02:08 PM

watch me get Texas A&M CC and Weber St. lol

Lathum · 03-11-2007, 02:50 PM

Actualy you are probably better off getting a lower seed since the favorite doesn't always cover the spread.
