The Review-Journal’s Adam Hill, Kelly Stewart and Matt Youmans compete with handicappers Bruce Marshall and Ken Thomson in a contest covering NCAA Tournament games last week, today and Friday. Each contestant selects a total of 22 games against the spread, sides or totals. Four of the Sweet 16 picks are worth one point, and a Best Bet counts for two points. Any push is worth a half-point. This is the final round of the contest. The national champion pick is the tiebreaker.
