Day 2: Major Upsets

Today was crazy. There is no way around that. I believe I read that there were four-six 2-15 upsets in the last 10-20 years (I know, it's a wide range. I just don't want to lie). And today we had two of them. A lot of brackets were screwed up long term. Sure, it only cost you a couple of points today, but it will haunt you in the later rounds.

People like Tommy...better luck next year. 3 of his final 4 have been eliminated and his 4th (Syracuse) looks like they could be on the way out soon. But maybe you were like Chad and had Missouri only winning game. Sure, Chad may be out a point this round (like everyone else) but long term, it will pay off huge for Chad. So we will have to see what happens.

Games are worth two points starting tomorrow, so catching up will be easier. Hopefully those who didn't pick the first four doesn't take 2nd place and lose by 1 to someone who picked the first four semi-successfully. Anyways, here are the new scores.

Congrats to TJ and Jordan who are tied for the best opening round. And after this post I will start hiding blank cells so we can see the full table easier. And just so you don't think I'm cheating because I have the lead, I will post the entire work book in this entire line. Now you can compare your bracket to others and see how you're doing. As a side note, anything that is blacked out is like Duke or Missouri. If we picked a team that didn't go on, I blacked it out so we could see how our bracket looks. And don't worry, on the off chance I blacked out the wrong team, it wont change the formula for the scores. If you see anything that looks off, let me know and I can correct it, but considering I have a version on my laptop, you can't try and pull a fast one on me. Good luck tomorrow.
