What seed will Drake get.
Closes at 5pm
One bet per person.

hopefully they don't fall victim to the 12-5 game. I could see them going up against a physical 12 seed like VA tech and have issues

At the same time, I could see them running a physical team all over the place.

Interesting:
1) In the poll w/out credits, 5 seed was winning pretty handily.
2) In the CyBookie event w/credits, 4 seed wins.
What pheonomen could explain it? Are those picking 5 seed more conservative selectors, and therefore not betting as much (which might be very smart)? Or do people's opinions change with credits on the line?
I'm only asking because I'm curious. I'm a geek, and stuff like this makes me curious  | | | |

Everyone bet on 5 seed, that is the guaranteed winner.

25k on the five seed, and with my losing streak, and Brianhos losing streak, that means you should probably bet on something besides the 4 or 5.  |

Or the way we bet, Drake gets a 6.  |

I meant to put 6, unfortunately it went to 7 or higher :(. I did a little research and I think alot of you are going to lose money.
This Drake team is very similar to the 2003 Bluejays which had five losses and a #15 national ranking, they were given their highest seed ever in the NCAA tournament at #6
