3/16/96, Issue # 6.2.1  "Purdue Upset!"

----------------------

            # 1 Purdue fell to # 8 Georgia in the West Region on Saturday.  Only one person predicted Purdue, who barely beat # 16 Western Carolina on Thursday, would fall in the second round.  Unfortunately, THE MIGHTY MOBELFAKTA picked Clemson, Georgia's first round victims, over Purdue.  No one picked # 12 Arkansas to advance to the Sweet Sixteen.

            Five people correctly picked Mississippi State in the second round, giving just three people a 6-2 record for the day.  This propelled JAYBIAN over BIX PIX TWEY by one point (68 to 67) for first.

            HEATHER and THE TAUREAN picked just 3 of 8 games.  HEATHER falls to last with 53 points.

            After today, we will see if anyone has been eliminated from any prize money.

            Here are the finalized rules and prize monies:

* $10.00 ENTRY FEE

* 19 participants, total prize pool of $ 190.00

*    1st PRIZE:  $ 110.00

*    2nd PRIZE:  $  50.00

*    3rd PRIZE:  $  30.00

* Points awarded per round:  2 / 3/ 4/ 6/ 8/12 points per win

* Total points possible   :  64/48/32/24/16/12 = 196 points
