Hey everyone,
On select games throughout the tournament, we'll be playing a little contest on picking the right final scores for select NCAA Tournament games. Here's how it will work.
Prize: 5 Free Trade Credits
Here's an example:
UConn vs. Pitt in the final game: 70 - 65 (70 + 65 = 135 is your guess). The real score ends up being 70 - 74 (70 + 74 = 144). You were off by 9, but win because you were the closest of all the other members playing. If your total score was over 144 then you would not have won, even if it is 145. Think Price is Right style.
And as long as Maryland is in the tourney -- they will be a selected game!
