Riding in second right now but the three behind me have fresh tires and mine have 80 laps on them.

Best of luck to GA, Musky and Angus.

Not sure how well ND slow playing it worked. They took a bunch of bad shots. Still hanging on there tho.... Not sure how the Orange Men beat UVA except for the obvious, they scored more points.. :)

Wonder if GA has any fingernails left.....

Just bloody stumps, Musky. LOL

It'll be shorter stumps on the 2nd if Syracuse plays like they did today.

OK, I've got a question about the PPR. I correctly picked OU to go to the FF. It seems to me that if OU wins that game I should be able to pick up 160 points. Obviously that's not how it works but I'll be darned if I can figure out how it does. I looked at most of the brackets and it appears that if your Champion pick doesn't make the Final Four, you can't score points in the Final Four even if a team you picked wins. Doesn't seem quite right. Does anybody have the real scoop?

If you picked OK to go to the final you should get points...... I guess I'm in the dark too.....

Just looked at your bracket. You didn't pick them to go to the finals. SO even if they win, you get 0 points.... You only get points if you picked the winner to move on....... No different than round 1.

Yeah, I see what you're saying, I just don't totally agree with the premise. Seems to me if you pick a team to win a game and they win it there should be some credit given. I'm so far out of the running it doesn't really matter but I thought it was curious, at least to my own weird mindset.

You didn't pick the winner though since Kansas is out. You already got the points for having Oklahoma get to the final four but the winner of the next game you have Kansas so no future points.

The only people that still have PPR are the ones with teams going to the finals.
