Crossing my fingers that this is correct. My laptop seems to be taking a nose dive. 
Bah, The win/loss numbers should be correct, but the remaining picks column appears to be verklumpt, dang it. So ignore that one. I'll try to fix it tomorrow night.

Good descriptor.Tuesday Bloody Tuesday!
Or, to borrow from "I Am the Walrus": Stupid bloody Tuesday.
Group 1 is wrapped up
Wofford winning the SoCon stands out but the rest seem to be on par.
#1 Southern losing in the SWAC yesterday to #8 Grambling was an upset.
Wofford winning the SoCon stands out but the rest seem to be on par.
#1 Southern losing in the SWAC yesterday to #8 Grambling was an upset.
Wofford was the only team outside of the top 3 in their conference to win so far.
#1 seeds - 6 winners
#2 seeds - 5 winners
#3 seeds - 2 winners
#6 seed - 1 winner
Just like in the NCAA, upsets happen in early rounds, but it starts getting chalky towards the end.

Seems like so far this season, wins by sub-3 seeds has been a little lower than previous years. (Going totally from memory).
Who knows, maybe next week will have a bunch of those.
