Anyone have any brackets they want to post? I'll be setting some up later.

Don't they announce them this sunday? If the casino is still active I wonder if I can set up a betting thing for it.

LOL...with them not winning their conference I'd say its pretty hard for them to do so this year.

Syracuse is a for-sure in right now with a decent Big East record, especially considering the Big East was by far the toughest conference to play against. If we win the Big East tournament, I'm liking our chances down the road in the NCAA tournament field of 65. People keep saying it should be bumped to 70+ teams, I say stop bitching and get better. Go Orange,

Alright the idea I've come up for maybe a little community bracket pool is using our forms (like the appeal and player complaint forms).

I can build a form for people to fill out and post into a thread.

The easy way to do this is round by round. We take 1 round at a time and tally up who has the biggest score at the end. I possibly could make a form that would encompass the entire bracket but I'm afraid it might be too confusing for people to fill out.

I'd say typical bracket scoring...1 pt each for first and second round picks, 4 pts for sweet 16, 8 pts for elite 8, 16 points for final 4 and 32 points for winner. In the event of ties, we'd go to the final score of the final game.

This should work out nicely, I am still open for suggestions as for being last minute to create this, I will get this done sometime this evening and new posts for first round picks will be closed before the start of the first game. I think the 64/65 pick game is tomorrow, I probably will not include that as the "start" but have them together against what ever 1st seeded team they'd face.

Im game for that, I'll be filling out brackets for multiple different groups over the next few days.

hahaha, someone should tell daZe and enazatol no 16 seed has ever won cause they each have 2 of them winning.

Ultimate props to them if they are right though.

I'll stay up late tonight and when the last first round game is over I'll post up 2nd round picks. Just remember to pick teams before the first game on saturday.
