When April Badness began a few weeks back, most predicted that Ryan Leaf would be the last man standing. While Leaf has taken out every fellow draft bust to stand in his way so far, chalk is not a word that's been used to describe how the field has narrowed to this point. Yes, all four No. 1 seeds advanced to the Elite Eight, but their company was mix of varying seeds, all the way down to sixth-seeded Jim Druckenmiller's Cinderella run.

Would the glass slipper fitted for Druckenmiller finally break against immortal bust/felon Lawrence Phillips? Who would emerge from the hotly-contested Shuler vs. Couch and Mandarich vs. Akili Smith matchups?

Only one way to find out...Check out the results, then vote for the Final Four!

Funny thread. Tough to see Mandarich getting beat here, but he did have something of a career in Indy, whereas Leaf was so toxic on the Chargers that he was never heard from again. The guys the teams passed on are a wash, too. Barry Sanders and Peyton Manning? Yeah, who wants them? Gimme Leaf and the Incredible Bust anyday.

Yep, gotta' go with the Leafmeister.
