A. SECT
B. NCAAT

Re: Bball Prediction Contest
I'll play. Because ... why not?
SECT: Finals will involved Alabama beating Kentucky. Because Alabama is really good and because Kentucky is .. well, Kentucky. Too much talent not to figure something out by then. And besides, they're Kentucky. They always seem to get it done in the SEC tourney. The fact that they haven't been to the finals since 2018 is simultaneously very satisfying and vaguely disturbing in a "the world is out of whack" sort of way.
NCAAs: Let's go with the blue bloods playing well and say Connecticut over Kansas. Why? Because schools like Gonzaga and Houston and Tennessee and Purdue never seem to quite get it done in March, and the loss to Xavier the other day might be UConn's last loss of the season...

Re: Bball Prediction Contest
Gents,
An OT W v G Cocks to open SEC play? Hell yeah!
The contest:
Pts will be awarded as follows:
1pt for picking runner up
2 pts for picking Champ
My “TENTATIVE” picks will be my FINAL picks- no changes.
DEADLINE- As I had set a deadline of TUES nt. CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED
( using my perogative to excuse the last entry being cpl hours late)

MathGuy is THE CHAMP!!!
Belated congrats to Mathguy for earning 4 pts correctly picking both Champs
CC & 7O tied for second
How is it I pick the 2 winners to finish secomd & get ZERO pts?
BEATBOWS!!
Ps nobody happier than me that my Dec prediction that VU MBB fans wld have no reason to check this board by Feb/March was off target
