Nothing personal, but it's a pleasure to announce that with the win over VCU, Rhody notched its 16th victory of season and ramster given his 15-15 prediction is officially eliminated from contest. First elimination on the low end of predictions.

I’m sure Ramster doesn’t mind.

I don't want to get ahead of ourselves here, but what is the protocol if they go 25-5 or 24-6?

Since no one picked either 25-5 or 24-6 records, the protocol is the poster closest to actual results using the relevant tiebreakers becomes the winner. For example, if we go 25-5, Seawrightpostgame wins. It gets a bit more dicey with a 24-6, but the winner would come from the 23-7 cluster and the winner will be Rhody 74 since his A-10 prediction of 15-3 would be the actual.

rambone 78 · Unread post by **rambone 78** » 4 years ago

However you slice it, I think 24 wins [including the A10 tourney] gets us in.

We get aggressively happy drunk for 4 straight days until we're playing as a single digit seed against a double digit seed in the first round.

reef · Unread post by **reef** » 4 years ago

Yes cuz 24-6 equates to 16-2 conf record and that gives us a very good NCAA seed

rhodyruckus · Unread post by **rhodyruckus** » 4 years ago

If I'm not mistaken, due to the math I and the group which had 18-12 / 12-6 are already eliminated as well. The only possible arrival at 18-12 will be due to a 7-game losing streak, meaning the 11-7 conference record group will be closer to the resulting 10-8 conference record:

74. RamIt! 18-12 12-6 75.24 Martin, 15.60 5,966
75. NC_Ram 18-12 12-6 73.58 Martin, 16.85 5,785
76. RhodyRams12 18-12 12-6 72.69 Martin, 16.69 5,369
77. RamStock 18-12 12-6 71.30 Martin, 17.34 5,805
78. rhodyruckus 18-12 12-6 71.22 Dowtin, 16.66 5,942
79. UCH21377 18-12 12-6 71.10 Dowtin, 16.60 5,888
80. OldSchoolRhody 18-12 12-6 70.00 Martin, 16.20 5,500

Of course NFW I want to even be close to guessing the correct record!

Obadiah · Unread post by **Obadiah** » 4 years ago

rr, you are correct. If your OOC prediction was incorrect, you are eliminated from contest with two exceptions: 1) if you are the only bettor in the overall record cluster, or 2) you are in a cluster in which no one picked the correct OOC record In which case those with a prediction closest to the actual OOC record would remain eligible.

Obadiah · Unread post by **Obadiah** » 4 years ago

Heading into the final game of season, here are those with the best prospects of winning the contest. Keep in mind the contest will be decided by the Team Scoring tie breaker which after the low scoring Dayton game currently stands at 73.62.

1. In the case of a URI win over UMass on Saturday, URI will end regular season with a overall record of
21-9 and an A-10 record of 13-5 (OOC of 8-4), the contest winner will come from this group:

rjsuperfly66	   21-9	13-5	74.03
cRAM4finals	   21-9	13-5	73.83
RAM67	           21-9	13-5	73.56
Shaolin Swat	   21-9	13-5	73.41
R.Kelly150	   21-9	13-5	73.28



2. In the case of a URI loss at UMass on Saturday, URI will end regular season with a overall record of 
20-10 and an A-10 record of 12-6 (OOC of 8-4), the contest winner will come this group:

DC_Rams	           20-10 12-6	73.50
mmp136	           20-10 12-6	72.61

You mean to tell me DC_Rams might be rooting for a URI loss on Saturday?
And his/her 73.50 very close to current 73.62 ppg?

Is that why DC_Rams is so quiet lately?

And our PC Friend who is currently working on his PHD in NET could win with a URI Victory tomorrow?

What a contest!!

Yes, ramster, DC_Rams is in the driver's seat in the case of a URI loss tomorrow. With URI beating UMass, one other consolation is if superfly wins he has agreed to donate the $200 to URI basketball as a condition of his participation.

Wow. Good for RJ. Nice gesture.

I’m positive DC_Rams does not want to win the contest this way. He was pretty spot on with his predictions.

My team scoring prediction was too low to win the contest, but I did predict 20-10 and 12-6. I REALLY WANT TO BE WRONG!
