Well i have been in and done final 4 contests with the exact same point values as these. WIth this many people, what we ahve done so far probably doesnt mean much. Ifyou dont have at LEAST 2 of the final 4, then usually you cant win. If North Carolina wins it all, then the early round might make a difference.
I have Wake Forest and North Carolina in the final 2 as do a few other people. So if that happens, then the early round matters. I didnt add mine up, but i probably had about 44 points in each of my first round games. But Kansas will hurt for 2 more rounds.
I need Bucknell and UW Milwaukee to win this round to get abck to even
