In Week Four we had our first push—both Stephen Curry and West Virginia went 4-16 from beyond the arc—and I am sure that it will not be our last. The push can be frustrating, but it also means that it was probably something worth picking the winner between (that's right—it means I done good!).
That being said, a lot of people expressed that they enjoyed picking something other then game winners, so expect more of these in the future.
The schedule of Week Four did not allow for a lot of game winner picks—there should be a lot more this week.
