The Mad Jack's contest consensus is proving to be a good (but not perfect) contrary indicator so far in the tournament:
Thursday 6-8
Friday 2-9
Saturday 5-3
Cumulative 13-21 = 38%
I don't count games where the number of picks on each side is pretty close.
The record on BIG consensuses (more than 3-to-1 margin) is thus:
Thursday: 2-7
Friday: 1-4
Saturday: 3-1
Cumulative: 6-12 = 33%
Sunday Consensuses on:
Gonzaga (BIG)
Florida (BIG)
Illinois (BIG)
Syracuse (BIG)
No real consensus on any of the other games.
