And the entry count goes from 25 to 125 overnight.

As always, the one and only hope for me is to end up on the first page. I am so mentally prepared for both KU and KState, both #4 seeds to drop first round (KU) and second (KState) games. Auburn and Cincinnati are equally "en fuego" and rolling at the right time of the year so I think that they will overachieve.

All set...thanks jabber.

 

[shoots-straight]

I'm in. See how things gne year I think I took second and then the next a fall from grace.

 

[Gunner46]

Well, my bracket is set. Go ahead and Guess who I picked to win ! If it flushes down the porcelain receptacle of false hopes & pipe dreams....I'l just stand by my bracket's title !

Jabber, you accidentally put a Texas longhorn logo on the front page.

I wondered if anybody else could see that.....It goes back to when I started doing this and it asked who my favorite team was. Oh well, at least I don't have to worry about them causing me a loss this year...

 

[TimeOnTarget]

I'm in. And i even clicked "save bracket" unlike last year, and probably the year before...

 

[noharleyyet]

I plan on taking Buffet's money this year...who else took the top seed shortcut robo selection? ; )

 

[Chad Gus]

I haven't watched any college basketball this year, so i give my 13 year old son the job to fill out my bracket

 

[Cornell2012]

I went a little overboard on trying to predict brackets this year...

I downloaded every NCAA basketball game score (from https://www.sports-reference.com/cbb/), filtered to only D1 teams, and have been running various models to try and get my own ranking of how good the teams are. I haven't quite settled on a method yet as they all have some quirks. For example, the most recent model has neither Duke nor Gonzaga as a #1 seed - Duke would have been a #2 and Gonzaga would have been a #3.

This is a long way of saying that I'm probably going to end up in the bottom 25% of brackets.

I am in, Thanks for setting it up. Always fun to watch the crash and burn. So much hope (until Thursday first game!)

 

[been huntn]

Thanks Fin for supporting it also, those coolers are sharp!

NHY,

Your top seeds is actually a good choice for this tournament. I have to pick at least one upset; it is in my genes.
My first bracket had all No. 1 seeds. Cannot do this. Present bracket has one No. 1 and 3 No. 2. It is a work in progress. Love Nevada. Love Texas Tech. Michigan is in the way.

I think you are thinking logically.

A lot of talk on Buffalo. I can see 1 win. I can also see the ex-coach (ASU) beating them.

Random thoughts.

I want to win. Hard this year.

I'm pulling for both of us...

 

[BluegrassBilly]

I want that cooler, but I don't have it in me to not pick the Cats on top. PJ Washington is in a walking boot, and without him, they might not win a single game. Here goes nothing...

 

[bobbydean]

BluegrassBilly,

I had Kentucky in the championship. I may have to reevaluate. It is so hard to be sure of the seriousness of the injury and it does make a difference.

 

[FAIR CHASE]

I let Cold Smoke inspire my picks this year.

I like stone color.
