Tourney Updates - Final 4 Weekend

We've lost 61 teams and we're down to 4...here's how the challenges are going:

1) 4 guy random team challenge
MR - 40 points/0 teams left
JG - 32 points/2 teams left
MK - 28 points/ 1 team left
JR - 20 points/ 1 team left

So ROE will not win, because JG is guaranteed at least 26 more points with UCONN and MSU.

MK can catch him with a NOVA title run and victory over UCONN but not MSU. If MSU wins, JG is champion of the world.

JR has NC left, but they can only get me an extra 15 points...so I'm guaranteed to finish 3rd or 4th - woo-hoo!

2) Bracket Picking Challenge
In this pool it's kind of a similar story:

ROE leads with 106 points right now, but he can't score anymore.
MK is at 103, Bomb at 98, TREE at 88 - all 3 have UNC winning it...so Bomb and Tree are out.

JG has 86 points and no teams left - guaranteed 5th place...not bad.

Basically it comes down to this - a NC win over NOVA wins it for MK, a NOVA win means MR is the champ.

It kind of works out nice - MK will win this pool with a NC win, but he could win the other with a NOVA win...interesting.

Happy F4 weekend!
