Yeah, I'm worried that I went too far with BYU. That could hurt. Guess I'll find out.I’m with @Dave N …mine will likely implode in spectacular fashion here pretty soon.

Not a lot of madness yet but I’m guessing some folks will have their final four get busted up in round 2.

So far not looking very strong for me to run it back this year...
Which year did you take the crown, Marv? When the prizes are sorted, we'll add another commemorative, customized, heavy glass coffee cup for your previous win.
The madness spun me into 282nd place. Maybe I regain a few places during round two or... shooting for last place.
then again, more points per win, per session, moving forward.

I had the most points in last years (2024) bracket though it went down to the final game and Connecticut bailed me out! @INMT and @JCS had more total wins though. Was a HuntTalk dogfight to the end lol, good times! I was 21-11 last year after the first round last year and am 25-7 this year BUT looks like some folks rolled the dice this year and had some good 9-12 ranked picks!

Sitting middle of the pack at 203rd. Really hoping for a Gonzaga upset this evening, but that would trash the rest of my bracket. If Arkansas takes St Johns, that will blast quite a few more brackets

Hey at least you are in the top 300 unlike myself. I predicted a lot of madness in the East that did not happen. Akron, Liberty, and VCU all let me down. I guess the selection committee knows better than I do.Which year did you take the crown, Marv?

Wife is spinning up a customized pint glass with your ID, "MarvB" and 2024 Hunt Talk March Madness Winner along with the five declared winners (change from the stein to pint glasses for larger print), once this event concludes. I'll PM you at that time to collect your address for shipping (no shipping charge). Enters into the thrill of the recent past, present event, and those in the future.
Side note: not intended to detract from this thread's general NCAA March Madness chat thread, an organization reached out and offered some swag. I'll update as soon as confirmed. Always enjoyable to add to the prize pools.
Hey! We bumped up a bit - into the 50/50 area. Myself with 202 and rolling the dice on the Gators and You're at 258 with the Cougars still live. So, there's a chance for us, right??? Haha!

Arkansas might crush some dreams.
I thought riding the red storm was a strong move. My ship is sinking fast!!!
All 3 of us went the same direction.

Watched the Arkansas/Kansas game and the Razorbacks are impressive, Calipari has them in a good place. Kind of the same with Mich St last night, turned it on big in the second half, very strong team. I've got St Johns into the Elite 8
Physical and some of these foul calls are questionable.

I watched 3-4 Arkansas games this year and knew they were good, but still didn’t pick them over St John’s.Watched the Arkansas/Kansas game and the Razorbacks are impressive, Calipari has them in a good place.
