With the two final four blow outs the championship game is set between the number 1 seed from the East (North Carolina) and the number 2 seed from the South (Villanova). In our tournament, the remaining entries with a rooting interest in the outcome number 9, one of which (quackquack) has ‘Nova winning it all, 5 having UNC winning it all, and the remaining vultures having picked “none of the above” to win it all.
What’s very interesting is that quackquack has a current score of 122, but will end up with 147 if Villanova wins the championship. The current first place entry, TKC2, already has 147 points, with a possible of 172 if UNC wins. Which means that if Villanova wins, quackquack and TKC2 are locked in a tie – with quackquack having a tiebreaker of 185 total points in the final, and TKC2 having 130. So TKC2 is in relatively good shape – only losing 1st place if Villanova wins in a high scoring game. quackquack wins if Villanova wins and wins in a high scoring game. If Villanova does defeat UNC then 5th place will also be decided by a tie breaker between Zag Nation 3 (135 points) and kzieg (128 points) – could be a nail biter for these two entrants.
