It's still pretty tight in these standings. In fact, the top 17 people are all within about 2 second-round games of each other, so there's clearly a lot more that could go on. Props to the few, the proud, who were actually perfect on one of the regions (8-0) - Alexis (South), Jocelyn (East), G.W. (South), Jim Mersich (South), Andy Wood (Midwest) and Ross (South). Shockingly, no one had the West perfect, where the only upset was VCU over Duke. But generally, it was very consistent. Nate has the honor of being the only person to get a majority of picks from a single region wrong (you pick the 9, 10, 12 and 13 seeds from the West; and the only upset is the 11?!?! that's just plain bad luck). Also, it stays interesting since while a small handful of Elite 8 teams are gone, no one has lost any Final Four picks.
But, Round 1 is in the books; and now all we can really do is root for a Winthrop-Virginia Commonwealth-Vanderbilt-Nevada final four. If nothing else, the ratings in the Nashville-Richmond-Rock Hill triangle will be through the roof.
