Billion dollar NCAAB tournament

Where's everyone at with theirs?
I'm sitting at 10/14... so much for that $100,000 consolation prize...
Texas, Harvard and N. Dakota were all heart breakers for me. I should have seen that Pittsburgh game coming, but I went the the Buffs anyway for some reason.

Im not a big NCAA ball guy, but I hear hitting a perfect bracket has the same odds as winning the lottery twice.

I'm not in that one but the one I'm playing on ESPN still has a bunch of people with a perfect sheet (16/16 after Thurs.) I would have figured that weird mix of upsets would have kept verybody down at least one game. I'm at 13/16.

Old Warren wasn't worried at all....

Chances of hitting a perfect bracket are 1in 9 quintillion (that's 9 billion billions)

That's not really accurate. It would be if every game was a coin flip, i.e., an even chance of either team winning. Many of the games are no where near an even chance.

That's true it's based on 50/50 chances for each game, but everyone who says "some games are no where near an even chance" and likes to evaluate every angle still probably has a busted bracket right now. After yesterday there are only like 0.4% with perfect brackets

These days a coin flip can be pretty accurate, I just updated my coin flip bracket an coincidentally I'm 8/8 lol!

First game, boom! Down goes OSU (The, Ohio State University).

Wonder if anyone picked Mercer to knock off Duke in the first round. Come on Cinderella's.
