All that time spent with slide rules and spreadsheets paid off for Ericatbucknell in the 2007 Hoop Time Brackets Challenge. Eric, who is known around the league's message boards for his in depth statistical analysis, correctly picked Florida to beat Ohio State in the final, giving him the title and a 49th place finish out of over 15,000 entries in the Sportsnet.ca overall contest.

Eric had just 11 incorrect picks in his entire bracket. Only one of those, a projected Wisconsin win in the Sweet 16, cost him a team he had picked to win in the next round.

Second place went to Falconkid, who had Florida winning it all, but lost his shot at the title when Georgetown fell to OSU in the semis. BKing, who had OSU winning over Florida in the final, takes third.
