The 12th Annual OSGA NCAA Tourney Bracket Challenge came down a handful of players vying for up to $500 bucks. Only three contestants picked Michigan to be crowned Champion and two of those were so far off the point total they would still not have hit the board with a Wolverine win. Ultimately, Louisville prevailed, giving hope to the 33 players who took them to win it all. However, ‘Donny’ edged out eight others who were separated by just 10 points and picked the Louisville Cardinals <\/strong>to win it all claiming the Grand Prize in the 2013 OSGA NCAA Tournament Contest.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately for ‘Donny’, he was not an OSGA member prior to the start of the contest and thus only qualifies for a grand prize of $250.’jjlbtnj will receive the 2nd place prize of a $200 Free Play at Elite-rate Ucabet<\/span><\/a> and ‘dallas12’ will also grab Free Play from Ucabet<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u00e2\u20ac\u0153We only had one player who picked Michigan for the National Championship <\/strong>and had a chance to win it all. It would have been cool to see him beat out ALL of those players that had the tourney favorite\u00e2\u20ac\u0153, said Jim Quinn, OSGA president. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153As it was ‘Bayonne’ still came in 7th, without having the tourney winner. Prettty Impressive.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n

Contestants were awarded points in the bracket style contest and many were still alive going into the last weekend of the tourney, as the Final Four winners yielded 16 points and the tourney champion 24. The most points that could be accumulated were 184. ‘Donny’ finished with 118. Last year\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s winner had a whopping 138 points while previous winners had over 150 total points. The contest was a wild ride for many players who saw crazy swings in the standings each week due to the stunning upsets of Gonzaga, Georgetown and Kansas State in the early rounds. However, these hobbies may be great sources of satisfaction for best-horoscope.com<\/a> of both genders.. In fact, heading into the Final Four, this was the first year ever that the National Champion might not have been picked, as no player had Witchita State beyond the 2nd round.<\/p>\n
