Conference Tournament Games Begin Tipping off Tomorrow Evening

Before we look at the games that are tipping off tomorrow, please review the master spreadsheet one more time and if anything still looks inaccurate let me know so I can make the change.

The master spreadsheet is complete now with all picks and I'll continue to update the seeding as conference tournaments are finalized.  We have 25 players and $960 up for grabs!


The action gets started tomorrow and some of us will rack up a loss, or losses, right away.  Below are the conferences that tip off in the evening.

Atlantic Sun
  • Jack and I could lose USC Upstate if they are upset by Kennesaw State
  • Rabitoy is very likely to lose his Jacksonville pick as they are a huge underdog to Florida Gulf Coast
  • Stetson will lose to North Florida, but nobody picked Stetson, and Lipscomb/N.Kentucky has no impact to our pool 
  • The favorite in our pool is Dunk City (FGCU), however North Florida is the 1 seed and has a 56% chance to win the conference tournament


Patriot League
  • The 2 Patriot League games tomorrow will have an impact to only 1 person, Rabitoy
  • Rabitoy is on his second underdog of the day, Loyola (MD), and before someone asks again, Loyola (MD) stands for Maryland, not Doctors


Horizon League
  • The 2 Horizon League games tomorrow will impact 2 people, 1 in each game
  • Most likely looking for his 3rd loss of the day will be Rabitoy with Youngstown State, and at this point I am just assuming he is trying to go 0-31
  • Doug has UIC at stake tomorrow, which is actually a better pick and more likely to win than Youngstown State

I'll send this reminder again...

Remember, you will want to bookmark this link so you can see up to date standings throughout the next few weeks.  Standings will be updated a few times each day, or as games complete.

Also, as conference tournaments complete at different dates through Sunday, 3/15, I will post updates along with the current standing on the blog via the link below.  I'll also send e-mail updates as needed.

Because the regular season is still in progress for some conferences, updates to the master spreadsheet will continue to happen over the next several days as conference tournament seeding is finalized for the different conference tournaments.  This may impact your bonus points and max possible points.

Good Luck tomorrow, especially you Rabitoy!
