Conquer Club

Scoreboard and bracket updated...only one Sweet 16 matchup remains active with #2 South Carolina taking on #3 Kansas in the West.

Available Elite 8 games will go out sometime in the next 48 hours.

Sorry all...swamped at work at the moment, but will get the Elite 8 games out before the weekend is done.

Our Elite 8 matchup is going to be interesting. I look to have a possible 4-3 advantage in the games, but he SPANKED me in the double-star game. I've been launching up desperation 3's in all the games I can to try to take as many neutrals as possible... let's hope it's enough. Can't wait to see the final score of this one.

The sweet 16 game between Kansas and South Carolina has finally wrapped up. An epic duel, and I'm pretty sure I advanced.

Scoreboards updated through Monday night...bracket updated and stats updated through three rounds. Also, the last Elite 8 matchup has been sent out, so all four games should be active soon.

Miami of Ohio's cinderella story appears to be on the verge of collapse deep into their elite eight matchup

Great tourney flex...cant wait to participate in another one of these!!

My football idea has been causing sleepless nights, but is almost ready...I'll probably put up the pro basketball hybrid season at or near the same time, so there are two to look forward to, hopefully by the end of the week

ISU finished up Wisc. Big 12 advances.

Well two underdogs went down in this round, leaving #8 Houston carrying the torch for the surprise teams in the Final Four. Also advancing are #1 Pitt and #2 Iowa State.

Cincinnati vs. Kansas is ongoing.

Well, at least I took the moral victory of winning 4 of 7 games in a losing effort.

Kansas vs. Cincinatti is done. One game still going, but it's passed the 13th round. I believe the Big 12 now has two teams in the Final 4.

Sorry for the delay everyone...been a busy week at work...Final Four games will go out Thursday morning/afternoon.

Kansas beats Cincinnati 122-74 to fill out the national semifinals.

#3 Kansas (Johnny Rico) vs. #2 Iowa State (chiefsfan4ever)
and
#1 Pittsburgh (TheMuss11) vs. #8 Houston (sportsgod24)

Congrats to our Final Four players...flex

Good tourney Flex, had a blast

I've had to play the highest seed possible for every round. I will continue the underdog role and rally the players to win.

In the real world, big win vs Memphis last night!!

thanks shaneback glad you had fun...look for a similar hoops tourney coming soon...yes, I know, I keep saying that

I think I won my Final Four macthup, 4 maps to 3 including the double star game.

Pittsburgh pulls out a dramatic win to claim the first spot into the championship game. Despite losing 4 of the 7 maps, the Panthers picked up the 69-63 win by fighting hard in their losses, including a 13-round battle between star point guards. In the end, Pittsburgh won their maps in an average 7.7 rounds, while Houston needed 8.8 rounds per map. That slight edge in shooting percentage gave coach themuss11 just enough points to advance.

Well if you take out my extra win, then my wins would have been an average of 7.3 rounds. So I beat him with our 3 to 3 on speed of winning and won the most important game. Are you saying that the PG win lost me the game? If I would have let him win in 13 rounds, I would have won the game? Or maybe the way you explained that was just bad. I guess he killed more neutrals then me and got more bonuses.

Yes, sportsgod...it was the latter. His wins just included more of the bonuses that got him enough extra shots to sneak past you.

I was surprised by the final score when I added them up, as well, and checked each map again only to get the same result. Just one of the those hard-fought battles that could have gone either way. The star play was basically neutralized in this matchup because that map was such an even battle and the start player for each of you, so both got up quite a few shots. You ended up with only a four-point edge on the star point-guard spot.

I expected the Final Four matchups to be tight, and yours is proving me right so far. Good tourney though sportsgod.

I'm looking forward to more tourneys from you. After losing in the Super Bowl and getting knocked out in the Final Four, I'm hungry for my first championship.

I believe you saw the NCAA wrestling thread and are signed up, but for those who haven't you can check that out...sign-ups close by the end of the weekend and still plenty of spots available.

also, in the works on the Keep On Truckin' tourney that should go up soon...and yes, it's a flex tourney, but no it's not sports-related

Well, Iowa State is moving on the championship. My team was late to the start of the game and only my SG was on the court at the tip. Hard to win when your opponent starts 6 of the 7 games. Congrats to chiefsfan4ever though, I hope he brings home the championship for the Big 12.

Championship game is set...#1 Pittsburgh (themuss11) vs. #2 Iowa State (chiefsfan4ever)...maps going out this afternoon.

Thanks Johnny. Well Cyclone Alley is packed with the fans for the Championship game. My big men have played well so far in the Championship game. My star player had the flu last night and is struggling to put up any kind of numbers.
