We had 11 brave souls enter picks in our 5th HWCI NCAA First Four for Charity (the others must be really trying to figure out who can beat Kentucky).  So that’s at least $22 going to the Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation but with other commitments, I hope to write a much bigger check!  But on to the standings… below .500 Hampton rolled over Manhattan winning by 10 while a year a few years after BYU staged a 25-point comeback in the First Four, Ole Miss staged their own 17-point comeback against… BYU.  Hampton was only picked by Kevin T while Ole Miss’s 4 point win was picked by just 3.  As a result, there is a 4-way tie for 1st with Kevin T holding the Points Differential tiebreaker at 15.  Boy, this doesn’t bode well for a lot of us, going 0-2 already.

37 hours after the bracket was announced, at midnight we have received 51 entries (from 39 people – 8 who are brand new to our pool), which is the 2nd most at this point in time (60 in ’14).  Still lots of time to get your entries in.
