Remaining games (ignoring Duke, Houston, UNC, Iowa St, and VT because they'll all affect teams the same):

  • Assume all high seeds win
    • Nazatron nets 4 minutes in comparison to Gophoz
    • Whicknarok nets 9 minutes in comparison to Gophoz
    • UnSwagable loses 25 minutes relative to Gophoz
  • Assume all low seeds win
    • Nazatron loses 10 minutes relative to Gophoz
    • Whicknarok loses 10 minutes relative to Gophoz
    • UnSwagable nets 25 minutes relative to Gophoz (and 35 relative to Whicknarok, which is just enough to move ahead of them)
  • Best case scenario
    • Nazatron (Wisconsin, Mississippi St wins plus Buffalo loss): nets 16 minutes relative to Gophoz
    • Whicknarok (Wisconsin, Mississippi St, Washington, VCU all win): nets 27 minutes relative to Gophoz
    • UnSwagable (Oregon, Liberty, Utah St, UCF all win): nets 41 minutes relative to Gophoz, nets 68 minutes relative to Whicknarok, and nets 51 minutes relative to Nazatron; I think that would put them in second)

 

Note these are times just for today.

Does Unwaggable have a chance here?

So, yesterday's scores:

UnSwagable: -30 (+7, +8, -3, -13, -2, -1, -6, -12, -12, -1, -3, +8)
Whicknarok: -13 (+7, -9, -3, +4, -2, -1, -6, +5, +5, -1, -3, -9)
Gophoz: -12 (0, 0, -3, +4, -2, -1, -6, 0, 0, 0, -1, -3, 0)
Nazatron: +11 (+7, 0, -3, +4, -2, -1, 0, +5, +5, -1, -3, 0)

Someone should check my math.

To stay alive, they had to improve their time by 35 minutes (1:58:15 - 35 = 1:23:15 < 1:23:30) to pass Whicknarok. Since they tied yesterday, it all came down to today.

  • Whicknarok improved 9 minutes with Oklahoma, and UnSwagable went backwards 8 minutes (+17 net, 52 total net)
  • UnSwagable improved 13 minutes with UC Irvine, and Whicknarok went backwards 4 minutes (-17 net, 35 total net)
  • UnSwagable improved 12 minutes with Oregon, and Whicknarok went backwards 5 minutes (-17 net (sensing a trend here?), 18 total net)
  • UnSwagable improved 12 minutes with Liberty, and Whicknarok went backwards 5 minutes (-17 net, 1 total net)
  • Whicknarok improved by 9 minutes with Washington, and UnSwagable went backwards 8 minutes (+17 net, 18 total net)

So, even if UCF wins, they'll only gain 17 minutes of net time and thus lose to Whicknarok by a total of 45 seconds.

What about in comparison to Nazatron? In that case, they needed to improve their time by 39 minutes (1:58:15 - 39 = 1:19:15 < 1:20:00). In this case, they improved relative to Nazatron by 9 minutes, so only needed 30 minutes of net time.

  • UnSwagable went backwards 8 minutes with Ole Miss, while Nazatron stayed neutral (+8 net, 38 total net)
  • UnSwagable improved 13 minutes with UC Irvine, and Nazatron went backwards 4 minutes (-17 net, 21 total net)
  • UnSwagable improved 6 minutes with Buffalo, while Nazatron stayed neutral (-6 net, 15 total net)
  • UnSwagable improved 12 minutes with Oregon, while Nazatron stayed neutral (-12 net, 3 total net)
  • UnSwagable improved 12 minutes with Liberty, while Nazatron stayed neutral (-12 net, -9 total net (UnSwagable is ahead))
  • UnSwagable went backwards 8 minutes with Utah St, while Nazatron stayed neutral (+8, -1 total net (UnSwagable is ahead))

 

So, if UCF beats VCU, then UnSwagable will pass Nazatron.

Assuming VT holds on, by my unofficial calculations this would put everyone's times at:

Gophoz        0:05:00
Whicknarok    0:44:30
UnSwagable    0:45:15
Nazatron      1:06:00

(if St. Louis comes back, just add 4 minutes to everyone's time)

 

Now, there's a chance this is a non-elimination leg, but if not ... a live look in at Nazatron's locker room
