I will recap this contest like I have in the past.
Question, what do you want to do with invalid picks (e.g. Pepper Brooks playing Washington State who is not listed in the games and odiecab not specifying which Miami)? Do you want to give them a chance to correct them or just give them losers for not being able to follow instructions? I would vote for the latter.

They will both be allowed to correct or clarify as long as its before the deadline. Miami will be graded as Miami FL unless clarified.
