Two ways to win: most right winners, or Sharpshooter: closest margins. The lowest average margin miss on finals with a 'win by' number; each game's miss counts whether or not the winner was right, capped at 21 points; at least 20 such picks to be ranked; ties: more qualifying picks, then the earlier last pick. Models are shown for reference and never win.
