It was all going so well. Big Lumber1 was dominating EQE March Madness in much the same way that Tom Izzo dominates clipboards.
Seemingly able to predict every outcome, be it a favorite or an upset, this entry stood out among the rest and no matter how you sorted the standings, Big Lumber1 was on top. And then……….the University of Pittsburgh happened. The upstart, having gotten into the tournament only on account of winning a play-in game notched the only upset of the early Day 2 games, taking down the sixth seeded Iowa State. And with that, Big Lumber1’s Elite Eight pick was eliminated.
And with that, everyone……..well, many more, suddenly have a chance again in this year’s March Madness tournament. Now don’t get us wrong, Big Lumber1 still leads in total points so far, and still has the most correct picks, but when sorted by Possible Score, a herd of contenders are suddenly in the picture.
Look for more clarity when we provide the next update at the end of Day 2.
