2nd Round put to bed
Published by Jeremy on Sunday, March 18, 2007 at 6:20 PMWell, the last two games are all but finished at this point.....Kansas is making its last few free throws and USC is finishing off the Longhorns (if only I could have been saying that about last year's Rose Bowl). The standings are as follows so far:
Ray, clearly using everything that his son taught him about picking basketball games, is leading the pack after having had at least a share of the lead for the entire pool so far. Susan is in a close second, but can't seem to shake Beth off her tail who is rounding out the top 3. As for the tournament itself, all 4 number 1 seeds are still alive and 3 out of the 4 number 2 seeds are still kicking. The SEC and the PAC-10 both have 3 teams advancing to the Sweet Sixteen, while the Big 12 and the Big East both have 2 teams each advancing.
With the damage from the first two rounds done it appears that 5 out of the 11 pool participants have their Final Four "intact". With that said, keep checking back to this site this week as I'm contemplating a bonus Sweet Sixteen pool........
