<<<But if Princeton can get through 19 ACF rounds in one day, there is no particularly good reason that CBI shouldn't be able to.>>> I think it a reasonable question to ask "Should a tournament last 19 rounds in one day?" Especially if that tournament is trying to determine its national champion. Nineteen rounds can be quite fatiguing. Though this question of fatigue is somewhat irrelevant, as CBI (better seen through the HCASC) tries to provide some outside experience with free time and/or organized side trips in addition to speakers or other activities during the Saturday luncheon. Basically, CBI spreads their tournament matches over a day and a half because they choose to structure their weekend along a different model (and probably because a number of schools are always making cross country trips to places many players have never visited) In any event, these are unofficial updated standings through 12 rounds (compiled from the raw scores posted on the CBI webpage). I don't know the actual tiebreakers used, so my order may be off--but I included all remaining opponents for potential playoff teams. Michigan (12-0; Utah, Washington, and UCLA remaining) Chicago (9-3; beat Texas; UCLA, Williams, New Jersey remaining) Texas (9-3; Florida, Centre, Pittsburgh remaining) Cornell (8-4; beat Oklahoma and Florida; Williams, Wabash, South Dakota remaining) Florida (8-4; beat Oklahoma; Texas, Utah, Washington remaining) Oklahoma (8-4; Centre, Pittsburgh, Delaware remaining) Pittsburgh (7-5; beat Williams; South Dakota, Oklahoma, Texas remaining) Williams (7-5; beat South Dakota; Cornell, Chicago, Wabash remaining) South Dakota (7-5; lost to WIlliams; Pittsburgh, Delaware, Cornell remaining) UCLA (6-6) Washington (4-8) Centre (4-8) College of New Jersey (4-8) Utah (3-9) Wabash (0-12) Delaware (0-12) Kenny
