TideFans Madness Tournament Pickem

[HighlandOak]

Purdue losing just kind of blew everything up. Reportedly the biggest upset ever (as far as team rankings go). But with an all world 7’4” center (supposedly), losing to a team with an average height of 6’3” sounds, well, really really bad.
I think I only have one team left. I’m afraid to look.

Them and Arizona really blew up my bracket. Half of my Final Four is gone.

I did two brackets this year. My one that isn’t in the tidefans group is on fire.

Now would probably be a good time to say I was hacked….

So did I…and my Tidefans one burned to the ground.

We need selma to keep repicking through all the rounds and make sure none of his championship picks include Bama.

 

[HighlandOak]

Can't believe my disaster of a bracket is tied for 14th. I imagine it only gets worse from here.

This year prior to the submissions FELT LIKE one of those years where there would be a LOT of upsets - the key point being you have to pick the RIGHT upsets.

Now just watch - next year everyone will pick wild upsets but all four #1 seeds will make the Sweet 16 and at least 3 will make the Elite Eight.

I have enough trouble with football picks but I at least watch enough of that that I can theorize logically. College b-ball...I don't watch a regular season where 68 teams make the "playoffs" and my sister-in-law and niece, neither of whom has watched a game all year, are wiping the floor with my brother, who has to cover every game for his network in our family pool.

It’s all in good fun anyway, isn’t it?
