There are like 50 of you in 3rd place right now, then me. Michigan State hurt me big, so did Louisville.

I'm afraid to even look at my bracket... I also decided I'm going to root for VCU!

ETA: My southwest is just all kinds of pathetic. I took Akron because they're my team but I have no excuses for the rest of it...

Thanks for nothing VCU

Wohoo, dead last!!!!!

I dropped from tied for #1 yesterday morning to tied for #9 today. Poop.

I'm not in a pool but I think I will pull for the Butler Bulldogs...or UKy.

Oh boy-Pitt and Louisville have blown my brackets all to heck by losing. I had Pitt going to the Final Four. Yeow.

I had Pitt in my Final Four. I am happy Butler won.

Thank goodness for Lambda Chiiiiiiiiiii who never filled in the bracket, making him dead last...lol. Actually, looking at max possible points, it is closer than it seems!

I thought having Pitt in the Final Four would have destroyed mine, but I'm still tied for 4th! I'm also 8th at my work bracket (out of 24). This is a lot better than I usually do, lol I guess a lot of people had Pitt in the Final Four too.

I'm in 16th place now, but plan to finish strong!

If you all look at the last column, possible points, it gives you a better idea how your early losses affect things later. Some people who are way up there right now have some low "possible points". Nut: Your possible points are really high!

I had Pitt winning. I'm out!

You and me both - figures it's the only #1 I'd picked for the final four and they're the first ones out :)

Glad I could help set up the group - this is always a fun ride to see how good we are at picking these things (me, I'm obviously awful! :D)

Ok, I'm doin it. For those whose brackets are busted, or who just want to try a second chance bracket:

You can start making picks on the 20th.

ETA: *cough* I know it's the 20th today, I swear. But you can't make picks until the games are over for the day.

I'm in. Although I'm still hoping I can come back in the original one!
