Congratulations to Whipples, our 2021 B1G Survivor Champion!
We started with a field of 102 contestants back in August, and went into Week 13 with four still alive. Fourth place goes to StateOfRutgers, as the pick of PSU over MSU didn´t pan out. We had three of our four remaining players make a successful Week 13 pick, but none of them had their last remaining team make it to the CCG.
So now we´re down to tiebreakers. First, we look at the overall records of the remaining contestants´ teams::
RTVF82 (OSU)
thegyufromy-wega (Nw)
Whipples (OSU)
Since Northwestern finished with a worse overall record than OSU, theguyfromy-wega finishes in Third place. Next, we go to SOV tiebreaker between RTVF82 and Whipples:
RTVF82´s picks´ opponents went 45-108, while Whipples´ went 56-96. This gives Whipples the Title, and puts RTVF82 in Second.
I had a couple of people ask for a breakdown of which teams knocked the most people out. First, we´ll do the breakdown of who got knocked out by which pick:
Iowa 17
No-show 17
Penn St 16
Illinois 16
Minnesota 8
Nebraska 7
Indiana 6
Northwestern 4
Rutgers 3
Ohio St 2
Purdue 1
Maryland 1
Michigan 1

Next, here is a list of the biggest ¨spoiler¨ teams:

Rutgers 10
Bowling Green 7
Duke 3

Looks like Illinois is our biggest ¨agent of chaos¨! Congrats to them?
