##### 2024 BIG EAST Prediction Contest: March 9 #####

[shu09]

We have made it to the final session: Games 106-110 of the two and a half month Big East season. Our season long title is still a bit up in the air as multiple players are mathematically alive. @GrMtWoods continues to lead at an impressive 88-17, but the lead has been trimmed to two games over three players who have made late season charges: @hallball, @hoops41, and @vegaspaul82 are tied for second at 86-19 entering the final day. @SPK145 and @Hall Is Life are also alive at 85-20 but will likely need to go 5-0 and get a lot of help in order to have a shot at the title.

10 players went 5-0 in the last session. Thank you to all 19 remaining players for continuing to play and protecting the integrity of the contest. Will the Big East get 6 or maybe even 7 teams into the field of 68? A few of these games will go a long way in deciding that.

I would certainly be up for that. Not sure if we would dole out any prizes, but I'd do it for fun.

The time you spent here for our fans, replacing Kevin, was a God send.

The fanbase owes you big time.

Yes, thank you for the fun. I'll have to make another small donation towards
Onward Setonia. If you can do this for March Madness, it would be more intensive
than just another bracket. I'd be happy to make another donation for your efforts.
Your rules would apply to all.

 

[Halldan1]

Calling you shortly to see if you got the cast off.

Thank you for the kind words, but nothing is owed. This was all my pleasure.
