Finally a chance at redemption.
The madness really did a number on many stackers and while it might seem like little consolation compared to the big prize, here is your chance to win 2500 sats and prove your early exit was an anomaly.
Pick the winners of the two final four matchups, the championship game and a tiebreaker.
Here are your games:
NC State (11) vs Purdue (1)
Alabama (4) vs UConn (1)
Winner A vs Winner B
Tiebreaker: Total points in championship game
Good Luck!

Won it on the tiebreaker and Larry Bird wasn’t even playing!
I haven't won a sports related wager or contest since 1986. I had the Mets.
I forgot to pick final
UConn
I can't think of anything more boring than a pair of #1s in the final (especially in such a great year for upsets). So let's go all-in:
Alabama and NC State in the finals, Alabama winning it all. 134 points all told.
Sorry but you have no path to victory. Thanks for playing.

Close but no cigar. The basketball savant @siggy47 took it on the tiebreaker.
For the most part, I've had good success with my strategy of undercutting @siggy47 on the tie-breakers.
Live by the sword. Die by the sword.

NC state (my completely unfounded backing) Go Wolfpack!
UConn Go Huskies! Roll Skies!
Then we got ourselves a DAWG BOWL!

I went 0-3 with my picks in March and April
My prediction today is 9 overtime tie
A much better start for you in the MLB pool than in March Madness.
