BRACKET CHALLENGE: Round 1 Standings

by Jeff Nusser on Mar 20, 2010 9:25 AM PDT in Miscellaneous Blog Stuff

I won't dive too much into analysis here, since there's still so much basketball to be played. But I will point out a few things before posting the top 10:

So far, we authors don't look stupid. Craig is in that big tie for sixth, while Grady and I are just behind in a tie for 15th.
How are we in a tie for 15th when the site says it's a tie for 16th? Because WSUScottie didn't adhere to the one bracket per person rule. I'm only going to count his first bracket.
Defending champ Pman is showing that perhaps bracket skill is not repeatable, hanging out in a tie for 58th.

Here are the top 10 (and ties). PPR is potential points.
