Survivor Pool Day 4 Recap

Well guys, this is going to be kind of short for two reasons...

1. Not all that many people got eliminated today

Sure, Day 1 wasn't that crazy...but, Days 2 & 3 were possibly the toughest opening round days in the last few years of the Survivor Pool. People in this Pool were picking about as well as ACC team's play basketball...It was that terrible.

But Day 4, for all of it's relative insanity in the actual games, was pretty uneventful as far as losing entries went.

Most people decided to "play it safe" today opting for either 3 seed Baylor or 3 seed Oregon, both facing 11 seeds. They both won, but neither won easy. Still, Baylor advanced 44 entries by taking the game over late against USC, and Oregon moved another 27 entries into the second week.

The five entries that decided to "play it safe" with Duke were not so lucky. Sorry Grayson, no tournament run for you. Or, really, for any teams from the ACC.  Duke was the top eliminator on Day 4. Outside of Duke, a few people lost on Rhode Island, a few more lost on USC, and Krafty4 went home when Cincinnati couldn't keep up with UCLA.

Oh, and of course, Kentucky won again, I hate everything.

Overall, we lost 13 entries today, which means we will have just 102 entries left going in to week 2.

REMEMBER, IN WEEK 2 ALL PICKS MUST BE IN BEFORE TIP OFF OF THE FIRST GAME THAT DAY.

That's it, week one is over, I'll just let Donovan Mitchell sum up how I feel about today.
