You’ve all probably seen this idea on social media…
You have $10 to purchase as many teams as you want… most points wins… you get 5 points plus their original seed value per win… so each Gonzaga win is worth 6 and each Syracuse win is worth 16. The cost per teams are…
$4 for Gonzaga, Michigan, Baylor, Houston
$3 for Creighton, Arkansas, Loyola-Chicago, Alabama
$2 for Florida State, Syracuse, USC, Villanova
$1 for Oral Roberts, Oregon, UCLA, Oregon St
No limit to number of teams… you can go quality and take Gonzaga (4), Michigan (4) and Nova (2) or you can go for quantity and take all four $1 teams ($4) and FSU, Cuse, USC ($2 each).
I just make this one up, so I’m gonna need a bit to come up with my strategy!
Oregon State, Loyola-Chicago, Oregon, USC (and how are they playing each other in the Sweet 16 with only four teams from the Pac12 in the tournament?).
BTW, unlike Pick 9 this isn’t over. Mayan has Gonzaga and is within striking distance of PZ and has Gonzaga, where everyone else at the top is running with just the Bruins. So basically PZ wins unless we get the most likely scenario of the remaining permutations (Zags over Baylor).
I made a model for the old baseball game that MountainHawk used to run
I put way too much thought into the RPS tournament
Other than that, I usually just wing it on these games
