It looks like player teams were well distributed this year. Only Boaris plays himself in the first round with Kansas State vs. Utah State, with is unfortunate since those are two of his better teams.

An average of 4.4 teams per player. Congrats to those with better than 4, and thumbs down to those with fewer.
Wow to Boaris, who has 7 of his original 8 in the tourney. That is good foresight!
The CEO draws first blood! 3 points and counting! Fear the CEO!
By the way, great league parity going into tournament time. Five players within 21 points of first place, 7 within 36 points. This is tighter than years past.
It should also be interesting since some of the further behind players have potential tourney giants like Ohio State and Pittsburgh that could quickly make them competitive.

I created a bracket using the points earned in Babbleball. Tiebreaker went to the team with the most head-to-head points.

Pretty good picks, I think. Says good things about the scoring system. Only real "upsets" seem to be Richmond and Utah St. making it to the sweet 16. Maybe the selection committee checks the site for seeding ideas.
Babs, you got me last night with Ohio, they shut Marshall down for the last minute and a half, I had high hopes that they actually might win the tourney they are in,
Fairfield upsetting Colorado St though was a pleasent surprise
Although I have to admit, last week when all my teams failed to win their head to heads, I resigned to the fact that now I'm just playing to not take last vs challenging our leaders

The Ohio win was a surprise, I didn't expect that.
Coupled with the Kent State win, props are due to the MAC putting on the attack.
babs
Maybe the MAC should have gotten some at larges instead of the colonial. Kent State looked really good last night.
