Big East Tournament Pool

PrintAlright, folks, I promised to run the BET pool. I'm sorry for making this pool amateur hour, but it's tough to do without a ESPN or Yahoo site to run it.
Here's what you need to do: Either reply below or (if you're concerned about cheating/secrecy) send me a private message with the winners of the 15 conference tournament games listed 1-15. The games will be numbered reading down and left to right (translation: in the order that the games will be played). If that doesn't make sense, check out the bracket below and use the numbering as an example:
http://assets.sbnation.com/assets/81373/betbrack.jpg
1. Depaul / UC
2. St John / GU
3. Rutgers / ND
4. USF / SH
5. Depaul / UC / Prov
6. St John / GU / Marquette
7. Rutgers / ND / WVU
8. USF / SH / Syracuse
9. ....and so forth....
Please submit your entries to me by 12pm ET tomorrow and I'll post all of the entries ASAP. Maybe Mike could offer the winner the opportunity to get a 1,000 word front page editorial on the UofL-related topic that the winner chooses.
Good luck!

I see my picks duplicated at leats a couple other people's...
.. so assuming the tiebreaker is something like the spreadorthe over-and-under in the final game, I’ll say the final score is 75-73.
By the way, how is this thing going to be scored?

I think G’town, ND, and WVU are better than their seeds, so lets go with weird runs from G’town and WVU. Sets the table for us to win tourney and still be dogged by Gottlieb.

Scoring

Rd 2: 2 pts
Rd 3: 3 pts
Rd 4: 4 pts
Rd 5: 5 pts
The tiebreaker will be the combined points in the title game and I’ll ask for that if and when we get there.
Aren't we great
After a quick scan:
1 person picked Depaul over Cincy (on a 2nd guess)
3 people picked st. johns over gtown.
Here’s to the boys fairing better at the real thing than we have so far at picking the games.
