Hello All,

I set up the "Big" NCAA pool again this year if you are interested. This is not a bracket pool, but a 10x10 with a chance to win something in every game of the tournament. Check it out: NCAA Pool.

@jjhoops54, a square just opened up. But it is open on the site. If you are still interested get there quickly.

For clarification since a couple of people have asked, the play-in games are not part of the payouts.

I am not a math guy but unlike football scores, does it really make a difference what numbers you get?

I got 8 lower seed and 3 higher seed. I don't have a clue why these numbers would be worse than any other combos.

The only real difference is if you get like numbers. Because games cannot end in a tie, you have have fewer chances to win. And, checking out Tom's link, the stats show that. Of course, the big winners in the SB pools this year won on 3-3, so...

Good point.

I was the lucky duck who had a final score of 3-0 and lost $1250 on that last field goal.

Got to say it made the end of games in the blowouts more fun. The closest I came was needing Nevada to hit the garbage 3 at the end.

It has me doing math at the end of games. Trying to will the correct scoring.
