Looks like @Kcmatt7 has already put a bracket in on our group. The group is still there from 2019... you know, back in the day... I'll get a bracket in tonight and hope to see you guys in there!

@approxinfinity I’m ready baby. Didn’t think I’d be so hyped by I’m ready.

I'm in! Just checked on my 2019 bracket that finished 50,000 place. It's been so long forgot all about that

so ok I entered but it entered me into the group s some ESPN then a bunch of numbers lol --- it's ok. But I have a question - - I joined the group but didn't give a bracket to fill out for the group , does that mean it just entered my picks as the same that was used for other picks in the ESPN bracket challenge ?

I'm two for two. that's probably the best I've ever started.

Mar 20, 2021 02:15 PM #10

Wow tied for 1st in the group. Last time that will be seen I am sure!

Back to form, my potential is 4th worst.

I just compared Joe Lunardi's final bracketology predictions against the actual NCAA bracket and this year he correctly predicted 3 matchups. (our very own Kansas- EWU matchup, plus Alabama-Iona and Baylor-Hartford)

Correctly predicted 18 out of the 64 bracket spots.

Genius! :face_with_rolling_eyes:

@DanR ESPN now has given him monster bandwidth predicting every game in the actual bracket. I used to get a kick out of his predictions of the Committee's work, but he is becoming as ubiquitous (and as annoying) on ESPN as Stephen A. Smith. So sorry they laid off so many staffers...nicer to have some variety.

In case anyone is wondering about my basketball prowess... I'm in 2nd place (88th percentile overall) with the only bracket that I used "auto-pick". The rest of my brackets are abysmal.

Mar 23, 2021 12:13 AM #15

I'm in 20th, behind @BeddieKU23, tied with @BeddieKU23 and ahead of @BeddieKU23

Mar 23, 2021 12:20 AM #16

I'm in 8th and also in some other ungodly place number.

@DanR

😆 most of my brackets are toast

A friend did her first bracket ever this year. She really doesn't follow college hoops. She picked her final 4 of Gonzaga, Houston, Baylor and Michigan. I'm sure two weeks ago we'd have told here all the 1 seeds never make it, and here we are in a tournament of epic upsets and double digit seeds in the elite 8 and now it's playing out almost as expected. I still can't believe Illinois choked their opportunity away.

@mayjay agree on all accounts, especoally Stephen A. Smith. He is so intentionally annoying as to be absolutely absurd, and imo also an obvious racist.

Apr 03, 2021 11:20 PM #20

I'm going to end up tied for 3rd this year.
