The 1st place jinx edition

Well, Kolton D., Much like Marissa W. #1 earlier today, I hope you took a snapshot of the last post.  Georgetown's loss makes it 0/206 for perfect brackets today.  Not only does it do that, it knock Kolton D.'s champion out of the tournament.  As a matter of fact, when I look at the top of the standings, I see a lot of brackets with points currently, but a lot of holes.

For example: Kolton D. is in first place with 36 points, but his Champion is out (Georgetown).  Marissa W. #1 is in second, but she has Cincinnati coming out of the Midwest region.  Steve H. #1 is in third, but he has Villanova winning the whole thing.

After the games are over today, I'll post the normal stats, but I'll also post the net points rankings.  That's what you get when you add the points won and subtract the points you've lost.  It shows the relative health of the brackets.  It is also correlates reasonably well to the probabilities of winning the whole thing that I will send put after the Sweet 16 is completed.

In the mean time, here's the standings (traditional way)

1. Kolton D.: 36 (-74)
