NCAA-T Prediction Contest . . . Thurs. & Friday's Results Included

[BillyL]

I've selected 4 games from each of Thursday and Friday's schedules for predictions.
Another 4 will be chosen from both of this upcoming Sat. & Sunday's line-up., and every game from the Sweet 16, Elite 8, FF and will finish with the championship game(tiebreaker will be total points) on Monday night. If, my math is correct there will be a total of 31 games to predict.

Is this just for fun, or are we planning on doing a small token wager amount on it like the bowl predictions? Or are we really gonna up the stakes and put OOTB "Likes" on the line here?

 

[BillyL]

I'll award $50 to the winner.
