    2012 BG March Madness Discussion (and Bracket Challenge)

    2012 6th Annual BG March Madness Bracket Challenge

    Yup, it's a bracket challenge. Pick the winners. That simple. Ties will be broken by whatever ESPN's tiebreaker rules are. No BG prize, other than bragging rights and your name on the list below.

    To enter, you'll need to register on ESPN.com, but you can disable spam e-mails if you're worried about it. All of them do have a grand prize of some sort if you finish first amongst all the thousands upon thousands of entries in the game, so you might want to use real contact information just in case.

    Also, please try to incorporate your BG handle somehow into your team name, or at least post in this thread with your super creative team name so we can bestow you with all the accolades and everlasting respect you deserve by becoming the Grand Wizard of BG.

    ONE ENTRY PER PERSON. No spamming the group with a bunch of entries in order to try to win with your best of six.

    Done. But that's what happens when you don't incorporate your handle into your name. Your team name was "Yesterday's News," /shrug.

    I think joining the group should automatically put your bracket in it. I see your entry on the group page, with a possible 1920 PPR, which presumably means you're good to go.

    Looking at my bracket,
    I have Memphis beating MSU
    Florida beating Missouri
    UL/Marquette elite 8 rematch

    Final four is UK, UL, Ohio State, and UNC

    UNC as the champ

    One thing that got me thinking during the last game was when Nantz was talking about some player being related to Jerry Rice. He proceeded to explain who Jerry Rice was. Am I really getting that old?

    UK, MSU, Ohio State, Kansas are my F4. I might swap the Ohio State one with something bold but I think they'll be fine.

    I think UNC and Ohio State have the best chance to make a final four run. UK has a decent shot. I think that any one of about 6 teams can come out of MSUs bracket. There's really no great teams there, just a bunch of really good interchangeable ones.

    I honestly can see Iona (if they win) beating Marquette.

    I wonder if Marquette or UCONN have any advantage playing in YUM!. I guess no more than Kentucky.

    I'm pretty livid that out of four team from the state of Kentucky, three of them are playing at YUM!, Louisville couldn't even get Nashville, nah, fucking Portland.

    I feel like Big East got some awful matchups because I don't have any of them going far at all.
