Apparently, according to a Sports Illustrated article, 2021 has hit a historic record – the sum of the 16 remaining seeds is the highest total that the tournament has seen.\u00a0 Guess that shouldn’t be a surprise with Oral Roberts, Oregon State, UCLA and Syracuse playing on the second weekend.\u00a0Considering the chaos of the first weekend of games, the people on the top of the leaderboard deserve tons of praise.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Right now, our leaders are T.J. Acuto and Ryan Callahan at 430 points.\u00a0 TJ and Ryan are closely followed by 4 entries at 420 points (two by Michael Cheung, Adam Davis, and Mark Walsh).\u00a0 We then have an 8 way tie for 7th place as Kelly Woods, Will Caldwell, Kayla Lindvall, Lowell Isaacs, Kevin Busby, Cal Lindvall, Sam Luy, and Debbe Evans at 410 points.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the upset pool, Ryan Callahan has the lead alone at 210 poitns.\u00a0 Ryan is followed closely by Amy Hattaway (207), Adam Davis (203), Michael Cheung (200), and Mark Walsh (195).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of course, we have 107 entrants who are within one Elite 8 winner (80 points) of the leaders.\u00a0 So, there is still plenty of chance to catch up.\u00a0 Well, unless you picked Big 10 teams to the Elite 8 – then you are probably struggling.\u00a0Good thing there is a Second Chance Pool!!!!\u00a0 \u00a0Don’t forget to login sometime this week and make your picks for the Sweet 16 – it is a chance for you to get another chance to win!!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
