NCAA Brackets

[shnsajax]

Looks like 13 people filled out the brackets. We have 5 people picked Ohio St, 4 picked Kansas, 2 San Diego St, 1 Duke, 1 BYU.

 

Good luck to Juan, last years Champion. Interestingly enough since 2003 no one has won this more than once.

Damn it. Forgot to submit mine yesterday.

[NCCubFan]

I've been in the top 5 every year since I joined the league in 2005, including winning it all in 2005 and finishing 2nd twice since then. I wish I could transfer some of that performance to my baseball team.

[tadowdaddy]

Glad to see Utah St. was the popular pick amongst this group.....

[NCCubFan]

First place!

 

My best possible score is lower than several others, though, mainly because I had Loserville in the Sweet 16.

[TruffleShuffle]

i didn't join it because cubbiebum told me it's a crapshoot

[moochpuppy]

Day 1 - finished 11-5 and lost three sweet 16 and one elite 8 teams. Bummer.

[rawaction]

Lost Michigan St who I picked for the Elite 8 for some reason. In my other bracket, I only had them Sweet 16 though, with BYU going.

I had already done another one with someone else and missed the timeline to submit one for this one. I only missed 3 games on day 1, and all were probably pretty common ones with Vandy, Penn St. and Louisville.

Penn St? I only lost the Louisville game of those 3 and I picked Richmond to beat them in the 2nd anyway, so that helps me a lot, assuming Morehead doesn't pull another upset.

 

Oh and I fuckin hate Gonzaga. Everytime I pick them, they lose. When I don't they win.

Gotta throw some upsets in there in order to have a shot at winning these things. I missed on Penn St., although I seem to recall they barely won. I nailed Gonzaga.

 

Of course, I'm the fiance in DaBum's article when it comes to picks. I watched maybe 6 college basketball games this year outside of watching SD St. pretty religiously. Still felt I saw enough to claim Kansas the victor!

Yeah, I picked a couple upsets.

 

I think Richmond to the Sweet 16 is one. My other bracket I picked Princeton over UK (lost at the wire), picked VCU to beat UConn today (which also included assuming VCU won their play in), KState in the Final 4 (probably a huge mistake).

[Guest]

VCU plays Georgetown, not UConn.

[rawaction]

Yeah that's what I meant. Georgetown isn't that good.

[NCCubFan]

First place!

Not anymore. :(

genius. the big east is overrated.

[moochpuppy]

Okay, still not out of this yet. I have 9 of 16 in the Sweet 16. I have 5 of 8 in the Elite Eight and all my Final Four left.

[NCCubFan]

So much for any drama remaining. Nobody in the group has a single team in the Final Four; the final standings are completely locked in. Matt won with 216 points, followed by Adam and DeShawn, both with 201.

I have UCONN. Gotta take what I can get.

[NCCubFan]

I worded it wrong. Nobody has any possible correct picks remaining. It's possible someone has a pick in the Final Four that they picked to lose in the semifinals (like you did with UConn).

I've never had a worse bracket! First time in NCAA history that there is no #1 or #2 seeds in the final four. Amazing!!

LMAO! The tournament is completely insane now. 2 of 5.9Mil picked the Final 4 right, and those 2 must have had 1900 entries each. No way anybody with 1 bracket picked these 4 teams to make it.

One of the two brackets was absolutely terrible and still picked the FF correctly (along with picking UNC-Asheville over Pittsburgh). Looks like basically a set of coin flips.

 

The other bracket, the one in the lead at ESPN, was the guy's only bracket, which is unfathomable.

[shnsajax]

We only had 1 person picking 1 Final Four team and they have UConn losing, so none of us picked a single team in the championship game. Sadly thats better than anyone did in my money bracket.

[bukie]

In the money league I do, instead of picking brackets, 16 entrants get 4 teams each, one from each quadrant (one 1-4 seed, one 5-8 seed, one 9-12 seed, one 13-16 seed). Biggest reward is for the winner, but there are bonuses for having the team from each quadrant that goes the farthest, as well as final four bonuses.

 

One of the entrants this year had Kentucky, Butler, and VCU. I had Louisville, Georgetown, Tennessee, and UNC-Asheville.
