NCAA tournament bracket challenge

[Je$ter]

Whose keen? I registered for the foxsports.com challenge i suggest y'all do the same.

I do this every year on ESPN.com despite not following the college season anywhere near as closely as I do the NBA. Is Selection Sunday this coming one?

 

[pennywisealfie]

ill do it, even tho i know absolutely nothing about college basketball besides kansas is good and north carolina hates duke.

 

[dukey]

Go Duke!

 

[Je$ter]

Selection Sunday is Sunday the 14th of March.

So did anyone else do this? I did one on ESPN.com - I picked the upset of St Mary's over Richmond due to my scientific research based on the fact that Patty Mills played there last year...

 

[Je$ter]

Yeah I picked St Mary's in 2 of my brackets. Of my 3 brackets so far i have 2,4 and 6 out of 7.

 

[fenomeno]

Kansas to win it all.

 

[Meat77]

Kansas to win it all.

Or not...

So far I'm doing OK - my final four teams are all still alive (for now) so I'm reasonably happy. I took Duke to win it all just because I like Coach K

 

[fenomeno]

Ok, i admit it, I know absolutely nothing about College Basketball and only picked Kansas because Kobe did.

 

[Meat77]

My bracket is on life support with Duke my only live team left with a chance of going to the final four - I was seriously doing well up until the sweet 16...

 

[Je$ter]

I got Duke and WV left in my bracket, so hopefully one of them takes it out!

From ESPN.com's competition - this shows how hard it was to pick this year:

1. Out of 4.78 million brackets on ESPN.com, 200 successfully picked the correct Final Four.

2. 304,924 brackets (6.4%) picked Duke to win it all.
224,417 brackets (4.7%) picked West Virginia to win it all.
28,379 brackets (0.59%) picked Michigan State to win it all.
4,568 brackets (0.1%) picked Butler to win it all.

3. 10,212 brackets picked a Duke/MSU championship game.
6,951 brackets picked a WVU/MSU championship game.
1,430 brackets picked a Duke/Butler championship game.
1,664 brackets picked a WVU/Butler championship game.

 

[Je$ter]

It'll be Duke vs. MSU

I finished up coming in 180,456th place out of 4.8 million entries on ESPN.com which wasn't too bad. It's the first time I've picked the eventual winner in about 4 or 5 years of trying
