Four.

For the sake of everyone's unyielding curiosity, let’s break down every possible Final Four scenario to see who has the best shot of winning this thing. The following hypothetical scenarios are all based on the possible Championship Game matchups.

IF UNC BEATS UCLA…
Andy Popp will win. Popp nailed three of the four Final Four teams, picking Pitt to get there over Memphis.

IF UNC BEATS MEMPHIS…
Tiffany Baiardo
will win. Tiff nailed all four Final Four teams, and is also beating her boyfriend Willis Barnes, much to Willis’ embarrassment.

IF KANSAS BEATS UCLA…
Lauren Duin will win. Lauren nailed all four Final Four teams.

IF KANSAS BEATS MEMPHIS…
Michael Marty will win. Marty also nailed all four Final Four teams.

IF UCLA BEATS UNC…
Alex Bratt will win. Thankfully, there is no possible scenario where Alex Bratt’s tiebreaker score of 87 can come into play and actually matter.

IF UCLA BEATS KANSAS…
Brandon Seroyer
and Matt Crevier will tie at the top, and it will come down to each bracket’s tiebreaker score. Seroyer has 132; Crevier has 112.

IF MEMPHIS BEATS UNC…
Christina Duin will win. I’m slightly embarrassed that both my sisters correctly predicted all four Final Four teams, yet I did not.

IF MEMPHIS BEATS KANSAS…
Alex Rosenbloom will win, despite spending the past two weeks depressed by how poorly his brackets were doing.

I’m fairly certain all of these ‘predictions’ are correct, but I claim no responsibility if I missed something while perusing the brackets. Best of luck to all, especially my sisters.
