It doesn't matter in what order you picked them, but if you picked these three
programs, you more likely have a better chance than anybody who did not picked
any of these programs with only two more games to play, and possibly a tie
break, again with one of these three being in the tie breaker for first and
second with any other out of the stack for third.
