Sparty v. UNC/drmarks44 v. Felix

My money is on North Carolina, and as corny as it sounds, my heart is with Michigan State. I'm a Big Ten guy after all, and having blasted the mainstream media for its anti Big Ten bias, I think a win tonight would more than indicate just how good the conference was this year (more on the year that was in the Big Ten in the coming weeks).

But as much as tonight could be about Ty Lawson v. Kalin Lucas, here at TDG two participants in our bracket pool are still alive tonight.

drmarks44 heads into the championship leading the almost 100 entrants with 126 points. A win for North Carolina means drmarks44 takes home the bragging rights (and a lifetime subscription to TDG). You have to go down to #24 on the current standings to find the only other possible winner of it all. Felix would finish with a tuornament high 132 points if Sparty cuts down the nets tonight.

Here's the top 30 or so as we head into the championship. You'll see quite a few teams bunched at the top who didn't do quite as much as drmarks44 in the first few rounds to stand atop with a UNC win.
