Conference Tournament Pick'Em Contest - WINNER ANNOUNCED

Post by MgoBlue-LightSpecial »

-Pick winners for each conference tournament listed below. You will make a total of 12 picks.

-Points will be awarded based on seeds. For example, one point for picking North Carolina correctly or 12 points for picking Georgia Tech correctly. If your team does not win you will earn 0 points.

-Please list the seed # next to the team you select.

-I'm only including conference tournaments that start on the 11th or later, due to the fact it will be hard for people to get in and make their picks on time. The exception will be the Big East tourney, which starts on the 10th. If you do not get your Big East pick in on time, you will get a zero for that one, but you may still make selections for the future tournaments.

-Try to get your picks in before the Big East tournament starts on the 10th. The deadline, however, will be Wednesday, the 11th, before the first game tips off.

-The SEC does not seed its teams 1-12, rather, it seeds them 1-6 for the east and west. Therefore I seeded the teams 1-12 based on how I see fit. Please use the seeds I created for your SEC selection.

-Person with the most points at the end wins.

Thank you all, hold the applause.

I'm confident that this means my bracket will be in the shiitter by late thursday. Plus Michigan's in so I gotta pick them to win it all so I'm really screwed.

But Rack Me for winning pre-March Madness.

I've got bode in the CHWC so I'll be to take last in this pool...especially with a fellow 'Michigan man' winning it.

I got my 1 point with probably the easiest pick possible (Memphis). :doh:

I don't think Memphis has lost a conference game in two years...if there was a sure thing in the tourneys, it was them.

What's their next best team? Tulsa? Tulsa is not even a high seed in the NIT. Think about that...

Memphis has got it GOOD. Or bad...however you wanna look at it.
