I was just wondering if anyone else has a yearly ritual/superstition when filling out their bracket.

For me I never have Duke winning the National Championship ever. I feel that if I pick them to win it all, then they will lose somewhat early (looking at you 2006 Duke team). I know it's somewhat stupid but it's something I always do.

I also noticed that I pick Kansas to win it all. They have rewarded me once but let me down three other years.
2005 Lost to Bucknell in the first round.
2007 Lost in Elite Eight
2008 Won Championship
2010 Lost to Northern Iowa
2011 ?

In as usual. jd8865 I think is my ESPN name.

My final four is Ohio St., Duke, Purdue, and K-State.

Got Duke over Purdue to win the final, which probably means Michigan is knocking Duke off on Sunday (and I won't care).

Question: I'm currently in another group. Does your bracket carry over from each group? i.e. The bracket I filled out for group A will be used for group B.

Ugh...am I missing something here or are the brackets set up wrong on ESPN? They have the Southwest playing the East and the Southeast playing the West in the Final Four. It should be the the Southeast vs. the Southwest and the West vs. the East. That's a pretty big mistake.

It was right the last time I checked. Don't know the names of each region but theoretically it should be OSU vs DUKE and KANSAS vs PITT which it is.

On another note there are an awful lot of entries. I don't like the odds anymore. Wasn't there only like 300 or so last year? Last time I checked it was around 650.

You're right. My mistake. I looked at it wrong.

Looking at the comments, there's a lot of banned members in it. One person said something like "I wonder if winning this could get me re-instated" and another said "I'm in this, even though I'm permabanned" Plus there's probably a lot of lurkers. So that would explain the high amount of entries. Also, there's always the possibility that some people have multiple brackets entered, although I would hope that the people here are better than that.
