Not even close. The multiplier ensures that later rounds are so valuable that you can't afford to lose high seeds (who are more likely to go farther). While there is some incentive to pick upsets early, you're out of the running in the later rounds if you eliminate the top seeds.

one down, one to go, go UCLA!

Florida wins, Ohio State wins:
t-1. nymanium's choice - 136

out of the running to win anything : (

ohio state wins if im counting it right i should have 155 pts ??? if i added right. no where near what i need to win

florida wins i should have 107 pts way off

if yahoo has it right right now ranked 15th... how florida is just rolling over teams and ohio state almost knocked off twice already i doubt Ohio can take down florida

o well

I'm with you there. Florida played pretty good, and UCLA got ripped off by a bunch of fouls; some cheap, some legitimate.

I've got a 50% chance of getting some stuff! Yay!

Them Gator Boys have done it again!!! Gainesville = Titletown

Congrats to all the winners, and big props to Frisky for setting this all up.

So it looks like:

After that, if Florida wins:
1. Cow_Tipper - 165
2. Phantoms - 153
t-3. Tyga24 - 152
t-3. Boston College FTW!!! - 152

Congrats to the winners, thanks for running this yet again frisky, and thanks to everyone that tossed in a prize!

Awesome! I won! Thanks for setting this up, Frisky.

I'm wondering, how do I choose my prizes? Should I just pm frisky with the six I want and a shipping address?

I got second and need the same info. And how many prizes do I get? Is it 6-4-2? So 6-4-1-1 since we had a third place tie? Or what?
