Lost both games so far including my champion MSU, but got an outside chance at taking my pool if Ohio State can get to the finals and Kansas loses before the final 4.
My original bracket had Florida in the final 4 as a 7-seed. Wish I kept it that way instead of getting infatuated with MSU's offensive and defensive efficiency ratings in a stacked conference.
I don't even want to look at the other bigger pool where I had Kansas winning it all, b/c I know I'm far back with Missouri in the Final Four in that one. But the work pool would be an excellent consolation.

Your probably better than you think. That region is down to a 4 and a 7 seed, so a good 90+% of people in your pool probably lost their final 4 from that region too.
Pretty sure that knocks me out the running for this pool.
However, puts me in a great spot for my work pool. The current leader has maxed out with 240 points. 2nd place has 223, with a max of 287 and Kansas winning over Kentucky in the Final. I'm in 3rd with 220 points, max of 284, and Kentucky over Kansas in the Final.
So basically if Kentucky wins - I win.
This is 20 a head pool with 24 guys in it, this would be sweet to hit
I was hoping for a Kentucky-Ohio State rematch, just because last year's game was so good. Even though I realize Kentucky has practically a whole new team now
I dont know if I'm just not personally as invested as I normally am, but this year's tournament just hasnt excited me like it usually does. The early 15 seed upsets were awesome, but since then I've been kindof meh...

That's the feeling I get most years. Unless there is some great underdog lasting way longer than expected (Butler, VCU in recent years), or I'm still in the running for one of my pools, it seems to lose its appeal much like this one has.
