Mars' Bracket Challenge RESULTS!

Not enough people signed up this year. I did send out an email, giving the ESPN.com group name (though the link itself was bad), but it would have been nicer to have sent it out a couple days earlier.

THE RESULTS:

1st Place- Lauren (1130 points, 91.4 percentile).
Good Picks: 10-Seed Davidson winning 3 upset games.
Bad Picks: Butler making the Elite Eight (they lost their second game).

2nd Place- Farlow (970 points, 71.1 percentile).
Good Picks: Kansas in the Championship game.
Bad Picks: USC in the Elite Eight (they lost to 11-seed Kansas State in the 1st round).

3rd Place- Mars (960 points, 69.5 percentile).
Good Picks: 4 of 4 for the Final Four.
Bad Picks: UCLA as my National Champ.

4th Place- Russ (I think... he didn't finish his entry on time).
Good Picks: His Final Four were nicely done (he says).
Bad Picks: BYU over Texas A&M.

5th Place- Randerson (720 points, 23.4 percentile).
Good Picks: 2 upset wins for 12-seed Villanova.
Bad Picks: "Bonehead" picked UConn to win 5 games. They won ZERO.

Worst Place- Star (620 points, 11.2 percentile).
Good Picks: UCLA in the Final Four (as opposed to Georgetown, Washington State, and Pitt).
Bad Picks: Georgetown, National Champions (they won only 1 game, not 6, sadly).


3 Good Things:
The Office
Red Milk
Jokes Making Fun of Women in General

Overrated- Picking the team with the best overall regular season to win any given post-season game.
