Since you (and everyone else) has accurately predicted that Duke will win it all, there is no way that you can drop from 1st place. Congrats!

Drum Roll....and here are the final standings:

Ok - Barbara - fess up. Did you pick UNC to beat Harvard? Cause I picked Harvard. I'd like to think that was the difference maker. (Which gives me the moral victory.) ;-)
Congrats!
The time is out of joint, O cursed spite!

Congrats!
I was going to forfeit to you and hang my head in shame - but then I looked at your bracket (2). You picked UNC also. You picked Harvard in your other bracket.
I, somehow, managed to have the correct teams in the finals - even though I only had 2 of the 4 Final Four teams.

Oops
OK, so it was picking Arizona over Wisconsin in the Elite 8 that did it. In that case, I bow to your superior skills.

Or, at least, to my blind luck. Somehow managed to get the right other team in the finals and was within 4 on the total score.

My West bracket is perfect (for the moment). The others, not so much. Thank you UNI.
