Per Yahoo MM Bracket commissioner Jabber, Yahoo designated point structure is the scoring used to determine winner.

Points and Tiebreaker process:



Tiebreakers

If two or more players in a group finish with the same overall point total after a national champion is crowned, we'll use the following system to break the tie (for tiebreakers, we only take predicted points into consideration):

• First tiebreaker - Closest prediction of total points scored by both teams wins.
• Second tiebreaker - Closest prediction for points scored by the winning team.
• Third tiebreaker - Closest prediction for points scored by the losing team.
• If beyond a third - If the last tiebreaker is deadlocked, the players remain tied in the standings and Sytes holds the final determination for distributing prizes.

We won't have my alma mater in the tourney this year for some freaking good upsets. Hopefully a March Madness to be remembered.

Jabber has hosted this event annually since...? As I recall it's been several years. Likely the only real annual Hunt Talk national sports event that gains a great deal of HT value and enjoyment!
