PS NCAA 2006 Tournament Challenge Editors note: The Pittsburgh Standard does
not adhere to gambling or betting. We present this game to you to have
fun and challenge yourself to know different teams in the NCAA during
the NCAA Tournament. The best way to do that is finding out about the
teams and challenging yourself to predict winners based on the teams and
anticipating upsets can happen. In the process you can win some free
money! Welcome to PS NCAA Tournament Challenge! You have to pick the entire bracket and the final winner. You will do that in two separate submissions. All submissions need to be in by noon on Thursday, March 16, 2006 before the tournament begins! Every round, you will be going up against other Pitt students. In the end, only 1 will remain standing as the winner. Find out each day to see how you have been doing! RULES: You can only participate in this challenge if you are a Pitt student with a valid Pitt email address. You will have to complete the entire brackets in two separate submissions. First Submission: SCORING: The tournament is scored by giving 10 points for every correct pick in the first round for a possible total of 320 points that can be earned and doubled for each subsequent round. Round 1:
320 points, 32*10, 32 teams advance Points are also based on a team's ranking. Whatever team you pick to win, you will also get their ranking points. For higher points, it is best to pick lower ranking teams to upset higher ranking teams. However, the downside is if the team does not win, you do not get any points for that pick. You have a possibility of scoring 1920 points + 800 bonus points depending on the rankings of each team that you picked that advanced. This will give a total of 2720 total points that could be attained in the tournament. PRIZE: The grand prize is determined by the points you gained divided by 20. If you gained the highest possible points of 2720, you would leave with a grand prize of $136.00 if you are the winner. PICK THE BRACKETS: It is best to open two browsers: one to do ATLANTA-WASHINGTON D.C Region and another to do OAKLAND-MINNEAPOLIS Region unless you want to backtrack after you get the cgiemail message for your records! Students have forgotten to do both brackets! NCAA ATLANTA-OAKLAND Region Bracket Picks |
