Cut down the nets for AOA Tournament Pool V
Congrats to Jenna, the winner of AOA NCAA Tournament Pool V. Her winning bracket is after the jump.
Jenna has now won the AOA tournament pool two years in a row! She's a buzzsaw with the brackets.
Jenna correctly picked 43 out of 63 tournament games, which tied for the highest number of correctly picked games in the pool with second-place finisher Shawn. She was able to edge out a three-point victory on the strength of her second-round picks.
And she had two of the final four teams correctly picked -- North Carolina (picked to win it all) and Oklahoma.
No one in the AOA pool correctly picked Villanova to win the tournament. Only 2.3 percent of the brackets in Yahoo's tournament game had Nova selected as the national champ.
For yet another set of sage selections, Jenna wins a Stewart's gift card.
After the jump, the top 10 from this year's pool. Thanks to everyone who played.

Alright guys. I'm going to collect my trophies and bow out next year.
PS: Correction, I had Kansas to win. I'm not THAT good.
PPS: The trick to winning is to know nothing about basketball and never watch a game.

I had Villanova winning it all in my office pool. I could brag but I was runner up this year - to a coworker's 13-year old. I was runner up last year, too. I was beat by the office intern, a 20-something woman working on a student visa from turkey who I believe had absolutely no knowledge of basketball what so ever. That's why it's called gambling...
