Contest Results: 300 SCR Underdog Contest
The NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament is not over, but my underdog competition is!With few underdogs reaching the Sweet Sixteen (only one team ranked higher than #5), the competition came down to the players who picked that one underdog team, which was Oregon. Although players were faced with the difficult task of only choosing teams ranked #9 and higher, we had one player who incredibly picked seven teams out of eight who won their first round matchup.The worst two players in this contest may be the biggest fans of college basketball out of all of the entrants -- @thesportsguru and myself. We finished with 34 and 43 points respectively. Well, there's always next year!Before getting to the results, I want to once again thank @broncofan99 for donating 50 SCR to the prize pool!Results First Place (200 SCR): @Boatsports 90 (97 points)Second Place (75 SCR): @Bigtom13 (92 points)Third Place (25 SCR): @Tadas (90 points)The only other player close to these titans of the NCAA tournament was @Ablaze with 85 points. Congratulations to the winners. You did a tremendous job picking your 8 teams. I hope to host this contest again next year and several more challenging contests that require skill in the meantime.The prizes are being sent to the winners now.Official EntriesIn case you're interested, here are the official entries into the competition.
