FWIW, I generally keep picking to see how I WOULD have done, and I've now been eliminated in back to back weeks after taking Northwestern last week.

I'm assuming the missing Indiana column is just because we all picked Indiana already...?

I want to go with Rutgers because it is the last possible win I see...   Do they rebound against poor Buffalo?   If I don't pick them, well, I'm hoping everyone else drops out before the last game.  That doesn't mean Rutgers can't upset someone, but who do you pick?

So... now or never... Rutgers

Correct, to help keep it cleaner, I eliminate the columns once everyone has burned them.

LOL, this is the third time you've tried to pick them I believe.  Please reference the chart in the 2nd post of the thread each week as to who you have available to pick from.

Maybe, but UB is 3-0 and they just beat B1G West champion Eastern Michigan.

Highest rated team in the MAC right now, they are the auto-bid right now from the MAC in my tourney sim.

This is not an obvious week. I guess that's normal -- it keeps getting harder.

Maryland.

7 picks spread among 5 teams.  Makes it fun for this week, and going forward that we can't have everyone piling on the same team.  Still avoiding any head to head matchups though.

It's kinda funny LGP has tried to pick the same team a few times.

It's hilarious that the team is Rutgers.

I just can't go with Rutgers.  I'm going to bet on the fact that others drop first.  Probably no choice now..

Therefore, I'm changing my pick to  Michigan.
