Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball

With my strategy I'm banking on lots of early round wins, so we should expect I'd get an early lead.

Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball

Apparently my big mistake was betting the 8s instead of the 9s.

Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball

Now that superfrog has set up a spreadsheet I can do the fun math instead of adding up the scores every round .

Here is everyone's current score and their expected average score given the first round outcomes according to the fivethirtyeight expected odds (definitely not true odds, but they are really easy to access so that's what I use).

vegietarian18: 9/19.82
vegie's dad: 7/16.51
Dysole: 7/18.00
Yodaking: 9/13.92
kevindola: 6/14.10
Chris Perkins: 6/14.20
Tornado: 8/14.70
dok: 10/15.23
superfrog: 9/18.11
Kinseth: 7/13.93

Again, these aren't true odds. I built my army using the 538 expected values so it makes sense that they would still have me as the highest.

Spoiler Alert!


It's hard to see dok losing if he has 14 wins today instead of 10 so we should be grateful for the 9 seed victories.

Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball

I used 538 for my picks too. You can see a lot of similarity in our choices.

Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball

So I can only win if Florida State wins more games than Virginia. Other than that, vegie and I have the same teams remaining, and we're tied up to this point.

Which means I want Florida State to beat Murray State in a game I would otherwise be ambivalent about.

Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball

I guess I didn't notice how similar superfrog's and my armies are; they are identical except for the final 250 points where I selected Virginia and superfrog selected Florida State, Cincinnati, and Syrcause.

By my interpretation of the tiebreaker, if Florida State and Virginia were eliminated in the same round, superfrog would have more 0 win teams than me and would beat me in the tiebreaker. But I need Virginia to win today to tie things back up.

I believe that everyone still has a path to victory, although some may be complicated ones.

Score update and expected score update:
vegietarian18: 10/19.63 (-.19)
vegie dad: 10/17.54 (+1.03)
Dysole: 8/17.90 (-.10)
Yodaking: 10/12.84 (-1.08 )
kevindola: 6/13.29 (-.81)
Chris Perkins 8/14.64 (+.44)
Tornado 11/14.90 (+.20)
dok: 11/15.12 (-.12)
superfrog: 11/18.42 (+.31)
Kinseth: 7/12.30 (-1.63)

Re: Sports: NCAA Basketball

Yesterday eliminated Yodaking and Kinseth and Chris Perkins from top spot contention. Yodaking only has Michigan State remaining and Dysole has a lead and Michigan State. Kinseth only has Duke and North Carolina remaining and kevindola has both and a lead. Chris Perkins only has Duke Kentucky Tennessee and Michigan remaining and vegie dad has a lead and all four of those teams. dok is in a tough spot without many upsets in the second round but I believe he could win if Purdue wins five games and a lot of other things go his way.

An interesting army matching is Dysole and I; our remaining teams are identical except Dysole has Michigan State and I have Auburn. But I have a two game lead. So if Michigan State wins two games more than Auburn, Dysole will place higher than me, otherwise, I will place higher than Dysole.
