Thank You!

Well, Ark-Little Rock has jumped to an 11-point lead midway in the first half over UNC-Asheville for the right to lose to Pitt.  And with that, the First Four for Charity contest is closed.  I got 30 entries in just over 24 hours, so thank you to all!  And since it seems silly, that in my email, that if I only got 24 entries, I’d double it to $48 and if I got 26 entries, it would be only $26, I am doubling it anyway.  So over the weekend I’ll donate $60 to the American Red Cross (despite what this bozo says) to help those affected by the earthquake and tsunami in Japan and the Pacific on behalf of the HWCI NCAA Pool.

USC was the overwhelming favorite being picked 25 times.  Clemson received 22 picks while there was a toss-up in the two 16v16 games: UNC-Asheville and Alabama St. both got just 16 of the 30 picks.  The biggest margin of victory was Deven K picking USC by 16 (I have them winning by 15).  12 of the 16 possible combinations were picked with UNCA/CLEM/UTSA/USC being the most popular with 8 picking it.  Six picked UALR/UAB/ALST/USC.  7 combinations have just one person picking it (so no tiebreaker in play if that person goes 4-0).

After the jump, here are all 30 picks:
