Well, two more teams are out of contention for the top spot. The best mwz picks can do is 2nd and the best that Matt's Picks can do is 3rd. Not a good day for the "Picks" teams.

By picking correctly the three games that mattered (everyone had Wake Forest in the fourth), Carla has taken the top spot all to herself. On top of that, she has assured domination of mwz picks and Matt's Picks. She is looking good toward the finish with the most points and the most possible points.

mwz picks is out of contention. Missing one of the three games (the Washington upset) has put him behind Carla and since they share the remaining picks, he will never catch up.

Matt's Picks are similarly dominated by Carla. I think he may have actually been eliminated at the end of last week but I missed it. Well hopefully he enjoyed his week of believing that he had a chance.

smashpanic is still riding in the middle of the rankings after being the first to be eliminated. He is showing incredible heart. The best he can do is third to Carla and mwz picks.

Snap it comes in next. The OK St loss really hurt him as he picked OK St to go to the championship game. His picks are different enough though that he still has a shot at the title. He'll be rooting for UNC and rooting hard against Illinois.

GOILLINI has a lot of potential left in him. He wasn't much affected by todays games, other than being glad that the Illini won. He'll be rooting for UNC, Kentucky and of course Illinois.

Arial still at the bottom, still with a chance to win. She lost OK St today like a lot of other people but she has her hopes pinned on Kentucky. That hasn't changed since the last time I pointed that out.

Well, that's that. Three down, four to go.
