ESPN Bracketology - March Madness - Page 3 - Two Plus Two Pokercast

6 out 8! Not bad for someone who knows jack **** about college basketball. Of course, since those brackets went 1-2, 1-2, 1-3, not that much of a stretch, either. Besides, I doubt most people had the correct match-up coming out of the South.

IDK if UNC can win it anymore, though, with the injury. So sad. Ah well. Once again my bracket is respectable for someone who allows a chicken to do most of her guessing.

I hit 5, should have been 6 if Wisconsin could have run any semblance of an offensive play at the end. I was very happy to call Louisville and LOL SPARTY in the Sweet 16.

I had 7 live teams. 6 advanced but.....the one that didn't was Michigan State, who I picked to win it all. GG me.

It would appear that my path to victory requires Kentucky beating Ohio State, and only Ohio State, in the championship. So "Go Buckeyes!"

Go Buckeyes indeed. That's the team I root for - not my alma mater, but my undergrad school rarely gets to the dance out of the MAAC, and I grew up rooting for Ohio teams as that's where my dad is from.

I have them losing to the eventual champ UNC in the final four, tho. If UNC wins tomorrow, I'm actually going to end up rooting against my bracket.

Who cares about placing in a league like this compared to my team actually going to the finals?

Now I just need Baylor and UNC to win tomorrow

3/4 Final Four teams, can't remember the last time I did that. 3rd place is nearly locked up, I can get to 2nd if Kentucky wins the title.

There are three brackets that can take it down.

I take it down if Ohio State defeats Kansas in the Final Four.
Doozie wins if Kansas goes all the way or Louisville defeats Kansas in the championship.
- Kansas must defeat Ohio State for doozie to stay alive.
Chilidawg wins only if Kentucky defeats Kansas in the championship.
- Kentucky must defeat Louisville and Kansas must defeat Ohio State for chilidawg to stay alive.

Scenarios based on national championship games.

Code:

Kentucky def. Ohio State
1400 koojeremy
1330 chilidawg
1320 Orange Crush
1060 doozie

Code:

Kentucky def. Kansas
1490 chilidawg
1480 Orange Crush
1370 Nostradumbass
1240 koojeremy
1220 doozie

Code:

Louisville def. Ohio State
920 koojeremy
900 doozie
850 chilidawg
840 Orange Crush

1000 Orange Crush
 760 koojeremy

Code:

Enjoyed keeping up with it. Did well in most of my pools, best I've done in a few years as well. Now I shall enjoy a healthy pour of fine Kentucky bourbon (Pappy Van Winkle 15 year) to celebrate my victory in our pool.

Congrats, chill!

I'm still relatively happy with how I did, and a lot more disappointed that Ohio State decided to crap out on me (although I didn't actually have them in the championship game).

Congrats Chili,

Didn't see this in time to get you a shout out on the show. Will hope to remember for next week. Thanks to lemmyisgod for setting this up. Would be fun to arrange a prize for next year and get even more entries.

Finally had a chance to try that Pappy 15 last weekend. Pretty amazing stuff. I wish I could find a bottle of it to buy though.

Lastly, someone give Chili a witty undertitle imo
