Single game eliminations - First 2 games of the Sweet 16

 Hello again everyone!!!  The tournament is back on again tomorrow, and it starts off with two games going off at roughly the same time.  That means that we have our first round of eliminations.  I have calculated whose brackets will be knocked out of the various payouts if a team wins or loses.

These are the single game eliminations.  Unfortunately, both games are happening more or less simultaneously occurring, so you may not have a single game that knocks you out, but a combination of the two outcomes could do the trick.  I will send out the matrix between games with the eliminations listed.  I will also try to get the next 2 games worth of eliminations out as soon as possible.

Here are the eliminations:

The “pick” column is who the person listed chose to win the game in question.  I find it a little interesting.  For example, everyone that gets knocked out of anything if Arkansas wins had Gonzaga winning the game.  That makes sense.

What I find interesting is the two people that get knocked out if Michigan wins, not because they chose Villanova, but because someone who picked Michigan to the Elite 8 will pass them in points, and they can’t get catch back up.  Also, the people the picked Gonzaga to lose at any point up until now are lumped in with all the people that picked Arkansas.  Fun stuff.
