KANSAS RALLIES FROM 16 DOWN TO STUN UNC
Bob, Glen, and Greg join the winner’s circle; Chris wins Bonus

VERY LONG BOY SCOUT MEETING IN CYPRESS, CA (smt) – In 2008, Kansas was down 9 to Memphis with 2:12 left in the Final and rallied to force overtime and pick up their 3rd NCAA title.  A 15-point halftime deficit?  No big deal.  #1MW-Kansas overcame a record 16-point overall deficit and record 15-point second half deficit to hold off a hobbled #8E-UNC team, 72-69, for their fourth title.  Three different UNC players got injured but played through in turning a 56-50 deficit into a 69-68 lead with 1:42 left.  Hobbled players affected the final minute stumbling with a couple turnovers and forcing bad threes because the quickness wasn’t there anymore.  Up by 3, Kansas ran out of bounds with 4.3 seconds left but UNC’s long three by Caleb Love (who hit deciding threes vs UCLA and Duke) was way short.

Current Standings after Friday…

…can be found here for now:  http://www.hwci.com/ncaa/2018/status0323.htm

and always can be found embedded in my updates (but since usually my updates are the next day, this site is usually updated first).

Apologize for the delay.

Glitch in the standings

Maybe it’s because Dave is working on some A.I. that can’t process a 16 seed beating a 1 seed but the standings are stuck after 18 or 19 games.  Thus, go here to find Friday’s standings: http://www.hwci.com/ncaa/2018/status0316.htm.

There’s Always Tomorrow

Well, a lot of brackets were trashed today, but don’t throw them away yet.  After tomorrow’s games, we will be able to see which entries still have a chance to win money and you might be surprised.  A quick look at standings here.

Don’t give up yet!

After all the heartache, many of you probably have torn up your brackets.  Well, out of 114 entries, just 8 have been elminated from money (1st-5th place).  Eight.  That means 106 of you will still be stressed come Thursday.  David has posted the standings and you can find out if you are one of the unlucky 8.
