The 2024 Women’s NCAA Tournament heads to the Sweet 16, starting Friday at 2:30 p.m. ET. Only 491 entries in USA TODAY’s NCAA Women’s Tournament Survivor Pool contest remain out of the 3,754 who signed up.
We’ll bid adieu to 8 more teams the next 2 days, too, as we head into the Elite 8. While things haven’t quite been as topsy-turvy as the men’s bracket, we’ve had our moments, especially with 7th-seeded Duke dumping No. 2 seed Ohio State.
After getting through the 1st round with 3 correct picks for 12 points, I stumbled in the 2nd round and was eliminated. No. 4 seed'Indiana helped me out, but 4th-seeded Kansas State lost to 5th-seed Colorado, bumping me out of the pool.
As an employee, I wasn’t eligible to win anyway, but there’s no rule against me helping you win $2.5K.
