We have 20 people signed up so far! I will post results at least after each round (maybe after each day of the tournament depending on how bored I am). Let the trash talking begin!!
 
I let you guys be after the cross-town. (Figured after letting you guys know I am a Xavier fan my opinion on UC wouldn't be as respected by you guys) Anyways, I won this thing last year so I will be back to repeat and defend my title.

As for the UC game, UC should win if they play smart. I have not been too impressed with mizzou all year. Tough pill to take in the second round with UCONN, even though I like that you will know what you need to do after playing them already. Win that game and elite 8 for sure. Anyways, time to defend this bitch.
 
UC has a very good shot of winning this game. the only thing that scares me is how much missouri is capable of scoring. i heard something like all 5 starters average double figures. They look to have beaten every team that they should of and looks like they were beat by all the higher quality teams they faced. stop transition, slow the game down and slop out a win. dont know how good Mizz's defense is, but i dont think that scoring point for point with them is a good idea. I would love to see Uc's 3pt shooting start to heat up. I think this is a good matchup and Ineveditably(spelling) UC comes out with a victory.
 
BYU- what does everyone think?

They struggled some down the stretch without Davies but they've got Jimmer and they're in CO. for their first two games...

I have Zags beating St. Johns in the first round- if that happens and BYU gets by wofford (and I mean gets by- it will be a struggle) Zags height would dominate BYU.

If St. Johns wins first game- they would turn BYU over like crazy. Jimmer has some of the most retarded passes in the country- wouldnt fair well against the press IMO.

That entire portion of the bracket is tough to decipher. St. John's has been so good in big games this year and I think they can absorb the loss of Kennedy for one game. The Zags haven't impressed me much in the games I've seen from them this year but they seem to be playing their best ball of the year as of late.

BYU has the home court advantage and Jimmer. How much does that count for? lol

I've got BYU in the elite 8. Just a gut feeling.

I can't decide. I'm not one of the people who think they will be beat by Wofford- but I can't make up my mind on the BYU Vs. St. John's/Gonzaga second round match up. I filled out a bracket for this group on Yahoo and one on ESPN and I have them in the sweet 16 in one and losing in the second round on the other. I'm split. Torn. Confused. :confused:

That's what makes filling out a bracket so much fun. You try to make an educated guess based on season performances and then you watch the games and WHAMMO................you watch your bracket become swiss cheese as a 14 seed beats a 3 seed........

Personally I completely disagree with Mo... I enjoy hearing/seeing who other people picked and discussing it... I think it's part of the fun. Has it gone a little overboard? Sure. But what would March Madness be without brackets AND us trash talking each other as the tournament plays out about who's doing well and who lost their National Champion in round 2?

We are up to 26 people in the bracket challenge! Most everyone used their BCT name for their bracket which is preferred so we all know who finished where. For those of you who did not, please let me know which bracket is yours so I can keep track. If you are a guest of the site, I suggest you become a member and join in the discussions on this forum. Let me know if anyone has any questions.

After the first real day of the tourney, here are the standings. I am convinced some people cheated! :D Also, congratulations to red_n_black_attack for being our token "UC will win the whole damn thing!" guy. Since Ralph didn't join the pool, we definitely needed one of those. Way to fill the role nicely!
