Good evening,
Shown below are my selections for this weekend’s regional games. Due to lack of time, I've not included any supplementary comments.
The numbers in parentheses in front of each team’s name is how I rank the teams in
each regional, with #1 indicating the team most likely to win, #4 the least likely, etc.
Sectional Prediction Results: Last week was a strange week. I picked only 31 out of 64 sectional winners correctly for 48%. This was my worst year since 2003! On the other hand, for all games played, I selected 266 out of 335 games correctly for 79%. Of the 69 games I predicted wrong, 33 of them involved teams that I had picked to win the sectional. Oh well, let's see what happens tomorrow.
Have a great day and enjoy the games!
Dan
