- You no longer have a final four team available after picking the relatively conservative Final Four of strong Big 10 and Big 12 teams of #1 Illinois, #3 Kansas, #2 Ohio State, and #3 Texas
- You want another chance to say that you had a perfect bracket after your billion dollar picks were ruined in the fifth game when Oral Roberts beat Ohio State in overtime.
- Now that your school has been eliminated from the tournament, you can pick teams intelligently and really show off you basketball knowledge instead of blindly picking Purdue – whoops, I mean your school’s team.
- Your daughter who picked teams based on cities she likes (go Loyola-Chicago) and your son who picked teams based on almost all favorites are both beating you in the pool and you want another chance to redeem yourself
- Because there is not a pool that allows you to pick who gets eliminated each week from the Masked Singer.
- You have decided that all the teams you pick are jinxed, and since there are still schools out there that you don’t like, you want to test the theory by picking them. If you have that power (like the Lunatic does), you might as well use that power for good
- You want to be able to say that you legitimately correctly picked in a bracket that a double-digit seed would make the Final 4 – and just to be on the safe side, picked #11 UCLA, #12 Oregon State, and #15 Oral Roberts to give yourself three tries at it.
- You want to be able to pick all the remaining top teams in Gonzaga, Michigan, Baylor, and Houston and then scream at your television the remainder of the tournament as Pac 12 schools start knocking them off one by one.
- It is another – and more importantly, last chance in 2021 to STOMP THE LUNATIC!
- It’s absolutely FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s right – your entry fee already covers your Second Chance Pool entry – and so there is absolutely no good reason not to do the Second Chance Pool. So don’t forget to get you second chance picks in before Saturday’s 2:40 pm EST game between #8 Loyola-Chicago and #12 Oregon State kick off the Sweet 16.
