Is ESPN giving away prizes based on getting the most points or by a random drawing? The site doesn't make it clear.

God they did a crappy job seeding these brackets. There are no legitimate teams in either the Atlanta or St. Louis regions. Its a shame that OK St. and Pitt are meeting in the sweet 16 where either would easily advance from either of those two regions.

Yeah, I mean they didn't put a single good team in half the bracket. I can't believe all the good teams either got left at home or got sent to Phoenix or East Rutherford. Duke, they're pushovers. Kentucky, too. And man, that upstart Gonzaga, they're just smoke and mirrors. Mississippi State, Texas, Ga Tech, Illinois- all cupcakes. Any of the top 4 seeds in the other brackets would just roll over these teams.  SI

this is the only bracket I'm not picking UNC to win it all in... still have them in the final four though, and that should be enough.

I have not watched or listened to 1 second of college basketball this year.
I can only name one player in the NCAA, I think. Some guy named Okafor(?) or something who plays for UConn. I only know this because he was on the front page of ESPN.COM today or yesterday. I made my picks for the tourney in less than 2 minutes. Yet, I will still beat you all. Yes, I am that good.  |

None of the tournament teams seeded 12 or less are pushovers. But, other than the #1's, I do think that all of the 2-6 teams in both the other brackets (St Joe's and Stanford's) are better than any team in the Kentucky/Duke brackets.

Uh, no. Gonzaga, granted, is a very weak 2 seed. But Tech would wipe the floor with Pitt and OSU.

Actually I'm making it both my shoe-in and lock of the week.  Breaking news: John Ashcroft has announced that anyone not picking Air Force to make the final four will be sent to Guantanamo Bay for suspect anti-American behaviour. Change your picks before it's too late! Last edited by Desnudo : 03-17-2004 at 03:02 PM. |

Air Force couldn't beat Florida A&M.
UNC won't go down until round two when Texas will dismantle them...

Hey, I'm an Army brat. I have love for the Armed Forces.
I just know the truth about the MOuntain Worst Conferene. It was an extremely weak conference this year and that led to Air Force's unexpected rise. They're gonna go out in the first round of The Dance, just like they did in the Mountain Weak tournament...

LOL!!!!!!
The WAC has a strong top half this year. The reasons behind the Miners amazing rise is the fact that we have a brilliant coach who is an amazing recruiter who got the Miners TWO juco All Americans. He also got last years best players to accept their diminished roles and play team ball. The Miners are for real. If you don't believe me, watch them tomorrow at 10:40am Mountain time...

I have...did all five. One where I put thought into it, another which was an ACC fantasy time-waster, and three others that were determined by someone who posted a simple little dice game of the tourney on another board. All of them suck, probably.

The first comparison I made after reading your statement yielded this. Gonzaga smokes OK State every day of the week. Nine times out of ten the cowboys are found wanting. Well that is what I think at least. Then again I choked a put Duke down as my champ. I already have buyer's remorse on this pick set. |
