1. Chris Galpin goes wire to wire for 1st place!
The Big 10 tiebreaker came into play to separate out the 4 players tied for 2nd with 18 points:
2. Tim Husted went on a 2 day winning streak that sent him from being ranked outside the top 20 to 2nd place.
3. I followed in Tim's footsteps, being ranked outside of the Top 15 the entire time and finishing in 3rd with a winning streak.
4. Young, tied with Tim for the highest Win % came in 4th place and will have a free entry for next year.
The payouts are listed above, and are in the attached spreadsheet, but the rundown is below. I will take the next few days to go through the scoring to ensure everything calculated accurately.
Early in the day starting in the Sun Belt, Georgia State beat Georgia Southern in a 38-36 game, nobody was interested in scoring. The SEC game is what eliminated Iannuzzi from contention with his Arkansas pick, Kentucky dismantled Arkansas.
Wrapping up the early games was VCU/Dayton, this is where the pool was won and lost, depending how you look at it. In a pretty exciting finish, VCU ended up winning this game and 9 players in the people split/won the lowest winning seed side pot.

The afternoon games started less exciting as SMU easily won against UConn, but Wisconsin vs. Michigan State was more exciting. The game went into overtime, but Wisconsin ended up winning by 11.
I hope everyone had a good time playing and winners will be paid out as a see them over the next few weeks, I still have some more money to collect.
I did send an invite for a simple, cheap bracket pool for anyone interested, now off to Vegas!
