Dunkel took honors for best prognostications in Round 2; Whitlock edged out Pomeroy for last place.
Dunkel takes the season lead with RealTime pulling up the rear.

Three road wins were projected for Round 2, but only one of those three happened, plus a
relatively unexpected one by Texas in Cincinnati.  Three road wins are projected for Round 3,
with Houston winning in Fort Worth, BYU winning in Orlando, and Texas winning in Morgantown.

Just a reminder that the avergae offense, defnese, and scoring margins have been adjusted for
home court advantage.  Total points is unaffected, as what you lose in offense you gain in
defense and vice versa, so the adjustments cancel out when computing total points.
