I suck at brackets more than any sports betting I do throughout the year.

1st (70%)- $927.50

I find with these brackets, the less you know the better you do - there's a reason a 12 y/o, the secretary or the girlfriend win so often. I haven't watched college hoops beyond a game here or there this year....I'm thinking I may have a chance.

USF to the sweet 16!

Anyone watch them last night? Really fun team to watch, their freshman PG is a playmaker. Stan Heath doing work.

Hopefully just not too worn out after 3 games in 6 days

ETA: but I have Ohio > Michigan so IF UCF can pull the 5-12, they should be good.

Iistened to Klark Kellog about the Ohio pick, then I find out after the fact his son plays for Ohio

I still stand by it tho, Geaux bobcats.

actually only 52 entries. my dad entered a bracket but didnt fill one out.


i just went through them all. a lot of chalk. I think if UK or UNC win, we might have a tie this year. Prob 90% of the winners are one of those 2 teams, mostly UK

1 or 2 have mizzou
1 or 2 have Kanas
1 has syracuse
1 has FSU
1 has Vandy
1 has Ohio St i think

ETA: shite they all just registered. Everyone's winners are up there now

Louisville and Vanderbilt are two teams I'll never pick to go far. They are always the 4/5 seed and are "sleepers" but will always shite the bed.

I ususally ride KState every year. I don't really like their squad this year though. USM playing them tough.
