Entries are now closed.

BananaKendrick must immediately contact me for Payment or his entries will be void.

Roger (High Impact) and staticflyboy have not entered their brackets into the $75 Pool on Yahoo. If their brackets get in before Yahoo's deadline they will count, if not their entry fees will be refunded.

Kind of bummed so many people took Arizona in the 75 pool. Only 5 percent of brackets on espn and yahoo selected them. We are over ten percent in ours. I guess this group should be expected to be sharper than the general bracket population

How are you able to see what % picked which champion? Is it through the "Scenario Generator"? That gives me a message saying it will become live once the tournament starts but it's not up and running for me.

I cant believe 3 other jabronis picked Creighton to win it all ....My strategy in these big entrant brackets has always been to pick an underdog team that no one else does, with the understanding that I could flame out in the first weekend , but if they make it deep I have a shot to win as long as the rest of my bracket isnt a dumpster fire.

I finished 2nd in this league back in 2014 when I utilized this strategy correctly (luckily) picking #7 Uconn to win it all. I think picking the champion accounted for more points back then , so my strategy now may not be the best.

on the standings page the champion of that bracket is listed below the bracket name - then i just did a ctrl+f for teams name. there might be a better way but thats the way i did it.

Only person in the 300 with a perfect bracket!

This will probably be my only highlight of this pool so I’m taking it

Just realized my brackets never updated (maybe I never clicked save) so I have my duplicate placeholders in the 300. Gonna chop 1st with myself!

Adam M. has paid for four brackets and submitted zero.

TJEckelburg has paid for one bracket and submitted zero.
huge doxing exposing myself as a non rick but i think I'm the adam m in question and i I'm in the brackets as adam 1, adam 2, adam 3 & adam's dad (who's crushing it btw but chose utah state to go to finals so we'll see how long it lasts)


sorry for confusion as not entering as rickroll but if I needed to show it to my dad it was a lot easier than explaining there's this thing called 2p2 and we all have alt identities there

It's probably more that many people have multi-entries, so they can just choose a different winner for each bracket. Although for people like me entering who don't know **** about college basketball, I imagine we are all listening to a few podcasts and reading a few articles to make our decisions.

And then no matter what it is, people hate picking back-to-back winners, so that probably got quite a few people off UConn.
