2018 NCAA Rank 'Em Pool

Post by phungi »

HeAthens,
I have been running an NCAA pool for many years, thought I would see if anyone is interested.

Given that most are not familiar with the Rank 'Em Pool, you do not simply select the teams from the brackets, but you rank the teams from 1-64 (1=winner, 2-runner-up... 64=16 seed). Each time a team wins, you get the points associated with their ranking.... the lowest number of points wins.

The guidelines, rules, and team rankings are posted at http://sjupsych.org/schatz/NCAA2017/

The ante is $20, and there is not much time between today (March 13th) and tip-off on Thursday (March 16th), so access the teams, rank 'em, and return them to me by e-mail.

Feel free to join in or follow up with questions.

Interesting. You really are a phungi, phungi. I've never heard of this type of pool so I'd like to give it a try, but only once i get my traditional bracket entries done so I'd say it's 50/50 at best, but still, interesting and different so thanks for posting.

was considering playing, but the link you provided isn't good. I got the following message:

Son, this ain't a dream no more, it's the real thing

Clams, no doubt.
