March Madness!!!!!
 

How is there no thread already?

Who are your Final Four? Your champs? What kind of bracket pools are you in? Your upsets? Your sleepers? Cinderella teams?

I've taken Duke, Ohio St, Georgetown and Indiana, with IU over OSU in the final. (Going Big10 final!!!!)

I got the Oregon over OkSU upset right.

My final 4 are Indiana, OSU, Louisville, and Georgetown!

So far I got Oregon over OKState, but missed with Bucknell and with Pitt. Doing pretty average though considering how hard this year's tourney was to pick

ETA: I wish Southern would have upset Zaga just because!

My final four are Duke, Miami, Florida, and Ohio State. I have Duke over Ohio State in the final.

I got the Oregon upset, but missed with Pitt.

Belmont...oh Belmont. Luckily they screw up most of my work pool's brackets as well

Love, love, love college basketball. It's the only sport I follow faithfully.

I thoroughly drank the Big Ten Kool Aid when filling out my brackets. I have MSU, Kansas, Ohio State and Indiana in the Final Four. I have MSU beating Indiana for the championship.

Is this honestly the way I think it will happen? Probably not. But after following the Big Ten closely all year, I think anything is possible.

That said, MSU got a tough draw with Duke and Louisville in their way.

I got the Oregon upset right as well and also missed with Pitt.

I have 2 brackets:

Final Four 1: Louisville, ohio State, Miami, Michigan
Winner 1: Miami []__[]

Final Four 2: Louisville, Gonzaga, Miami, Kansas
Winner 2: Louisville

I missed with Pitt too! I had them losing in the next round though, so as long as Gonzaga beats Wichita St, I'll still be good.

Ole Miss is my sleeper cinderella team. I have them going to the Sweet 16.

I have Ole Miss beating Wisconsin, but losing to K State.

Got the Cal upset! So far I have every game right except for Pitt. I only had them going to the Round of 32, but I think Wichita State has a chance against Gonzaga.

Watching my Zips get absolutely demolished. We were on a 19 game win streak, then our PG was arrested on felony drug charges, and now two of our key players are playing through flu that had them in the hospital this morning. Can this cursed season be over?

I have Louisville, Kansas, Miami and Ohio State in my final four. Louisville winning it all. Didn't want to put OSU in because they tend to choke in the tournament, but we'll see.

I've missed Pitt, UNLV, and Belmont. Tough to pick the bracket this year.

I picked Akron to upset. Damnit.

Me too! Even though it's a long shot. My nephew attends Akron.

I have to go with my alma mater San Diego State and last but not least Ohio State.

Akron is my alma mater and I DIDN'T pick them to upset, lol.

I had planned on staying up to watch but this isn't worth feeling like a zombie tomorrow.

There's a kid from the town my son goes to school in very near where I work that plays for Akron. The area was very excited to see him play tonight, couple that with their great end of the season run, and I thought they'd have a great shot at upsetting. They look terrible. VCU not letting up on the press seems shameful to me.

I'm in a pool with some folks and I don't even like basketball. As of right now, I am 10-2 and leading the group! WTH????? UNLV and Okla St let me down....or I'd be 12-0. I have Louisville, Kansas, KSU and Miami with Louisville winning it all.

You might be in the running for my new BFF. :D

I have Louisville, Kansas, Ohio State and IU with IU over U of L in the final. I have degrees from both IU and U of L, I am the ultimate homer. Gotta represent.

My Final Four is Louisville, Florida, Ohio State, and Indiana, with IU over OSU in the championship. Gotta go with my alma mater! :D

I did pick Oregon over Oklahoma State, but missed Pitt, UNLV, Mizzou, and New Mexico. (I had New Mexico in the Sweet Sixteen, the other three I had losing in the next round)

If history holds, since I did okay today, all hell will break loose in my bracket tomorrow!

INSK, I always have an "inkling" early in the season. This year my spidey senses tingled when I thought of the Hoosiers. Here's hoping!

My final four: Louisville, Ohio State, Georgetown, Indiana.

I had everything filled out early except that I had my two alma maters meeting in the Elite Eight and really hated having to choose one. I debated the Georgetown vs. Michigan pick for 2 days, and eventually -- at 11:45 am on Thursday -- picked GU because they have been stronger toward the end of the season this year.

But I still feel like I picked one of my children over the other. I've rooted for both teams all my life, attended both schools, have all kinds of connections to both teams, and was sitting IN Georgetown's Selection Sunday party cheering the reveal of the #2 seed when it dawned on me that they were in the same region. I'd been dreading that possibility all season.

Of course, VCU could come along and blow both of them to bits, heh.

As a preface, I am not at all into basketball but I love playing along with these types of tournaments. So I more or less guessed based on widely known but possibly ancient reputations. I have Louisville, Georgetown and Gonzaga, with Syracuse for the win. I have no idea why and I'm really not a fan of Orange, so I really don't know what I was thinking. Of 16 games played, I have missed on 6. So any plans I had at retiring with the $35 in the office pool can now be scrapped. But seriously, Harvard?

Hoping my Rebels upset Wisconsin. Hear that Tom Brokaw has us listed as a sleeper! We beat Florida who beat Wisconsin like a drum so maybe we have a chance.

My Final Four are Louisville, Ohio State, VCU and Miami.

I'd prefer OSU or VCU win it all but my sense is Louisville wil get them nets.

Damn you New Mexico and Mizzou!

I love that my Alma Mater was seeded against the Colorado--where I will be living in a few short months.

We better win. Not that there's any sort of rivalry...just on principle.

WooHoo! Rebs win, Rebs win!

Damn you west regional!!! Only have 1 loss outside of that one...but that one is swiss cheese-y

My West is a disaster as well.

My Midwest is perfecto!

Georgetown's loss sure did throw my brackets off track.

On both my brackets, I have 8 wrong of games played.

Oh the humanity...

Go Aztecs!!!! Way to go SDSU. Sent those Sooner a packin'

DaffyKD

I'm doing great in the East region!

Everything else is a shambles. **heaving a sigh**

We have an office pool going and among a group of OLD rich white ladies, I am losing in a spectacular way. I got 18 of 32 games right. So hey, more than half! One of my final 4 is already out, 3 of my 8, and 7 of my sweet 16. So yeah, I'm on way way to a remarkable victory.

My Midwest and East are doing pretty swell. My Final Four is also intact. My manager is giving $50 to whoever on our team does the best, so I'm quite concerned about my brackets. lol

Also, I filled out an extra bracket of all the teams I thought would lose. That FF is St. Mary's, Iona, James Madison, and Florida Gulf Coast with JMU winning it all. hah!

Oh gees, my brackets are blown to hell at this point. Thanks Georgetown and Wisconsin. I have MSU (taking Coach Izzo over Pitino), Kansas, OSU and Miami as final four. Have OSU vs. Miami as Miami's coach was at Bowling Green before he went to George Mason. BTW he is a great guy. But ultimately I want my Bucks to win. Who knows, there really are a number of teams who could win it this year.

Im 79% right now, but considering I had Georgetown going to the Final Four, that isn't going to hold up for long. :(

Isn't there someone from FGCU who posts on here? It seems like it might even be a Tri Delta, but I can't remember.

That FGCU dunk last night was epic. :)

This whole season has been a rollercoaster ride for the men's teams...nobody wanted to be #1. We are going to New Orleans for the women's final four. Looking forward to getting away from the job for a few days.

GOING TO THE SWEET 16!! Both IU and myself :) Just got my tickets off stubhub--going with another adpi sister from my chapter!

Excited for this because we will be your competition! Should be a great game! Let's go Orange!

Which Illini team will show up today? The one who beat Gonzaga and Indiana? Or the won who got destroyed by Northwestern at home?

Hopefully the latter. ;P
