Now that we're down to the Sweet 16 and most of your brackets are shot to hell, why not have a little bit of fun?
Here are the matchups
No. 1 Kentucky vs. No. 12 Cornell
No. 2 West Virginia vs. No. 11 Washington
No. 1 Duke vs. No. 4 Purdue
No. 3 Baylor vs. No. 11 Saint Mary's
No. 5 Michigan State vs. No. 9 Northern Iowa
No. 2 Ohio State vs. No. 6 Tennessee
No. 1 Syracuse vs. No. 5 Butler
No. 2 Kansas State vs. No. 6 Xavier
What you need to do is this
1. Pick six of the eight games.
2. From those six, pick five that you feel are going to be the closest in point differential. But what about the sixth? That will be your wild card.
3. If the wild card game has a smaller point differential than one of the five you picked, you're eliminated.
4. We'll keep this going until the championship game, if anyone lasts that long.
PM me with your picks or post them in this thread. Picks are due by noon EST on March 25.
Have at it. Hopefully this makes sense.

Yes, that makes more sense now that I think about it.
Pick five games you think are going to be the closest. Then, the sixth game (your wild card) should be the one you feel has the BIGGEST point differential.
