FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS!


MIDNIGHT STRIKES FOR CINDERELLA!
> Midnight struck for the true Cinderella teams - Northern Iowa and St Mary's! Northern Iowa lost a tough one to Michigan State, while St Mary's was over matched by Baylor! Now we are left with two #5 seeds and a #6 seed- both on the same side of the bracket as our pseudo Cinderellas!

THE MIDWEST IS DEAD!
> For purposes of our contest there is no more points out of the Midwest Regional - MSU vs. Tennessee. No one has picked either of these teams beyond the Elite Eight.
> THE LONGHORN TYLER and THE KING JONAH both had Tennessee winning on Friday night! They both had 3 out of 4 on Friday - both correctly picking Baylor and Duke as well! Great job guys!

SHRINKING POOL
> Ohio State's loss eliminated two more people from the National Championship Pool as CHIP FAN JAN and THE DEBSTER both had the Buckeyes as their National Champs. Only 5 people remain in the running for the $100, with Duke (1 player) and Kentucky (4) the remaining options.
> If no one predicts the correct winner the money will go into the party fund! There are 6 other teams left!

LIMITED POINTS AVAILABLE -
> There are only 4 teams left that can potentially bring points to any of our players.
> Kentucky, West Virginia, Duke, and Kansas State are the only teams left that are predicted by our group to advance beyond the Elite Eight.
> Obviously the Kentucky - West Virginia game will be a key game to determine who might advance to the one of the money positions!

SWEET SIXTEEN DRAWING
> Losers - JAMMIN JEFF - Ohio State; RAM FAN JAN - St Mary's; DEBSTER THE CHEF - Northern Iowa; MBFGGG - Purdue
> Still breathing - BRUIN DALE - Tennessee; LEWALCINDY - Baylor; THE MAILMAN - Michigan State; PENNY WISE - Duke

50 - THE PROFESSOR PATTI BAIRD - Looks like too far back to catchup to the money positions, but you never know. FF - Kentucky, Duke
