    BG 2018 March Madness Bracket and Tourney Discussion

    It's our 12th year doing a March Madness bracket, that's over 25% of my life. That's a lot of years where I've royally screwed up on Michigan State.

    Same deal as always. One entry per person. Put your BG name in your team name if possible, or post here. You should be able to rejoin the group if you were in it last year. If you're having trouble rejoining the group, you need to make a bracket first and then rejoin the group, I believe. At least that's what worked for me - the rejoin option didn't show up until I already had a bracket.

    If you have trouble figuring out how to make picks, let me know, but this is about as simple an event as they come. You can spend five minutes on this and never have to worry about it again.

    Holy shit, I didn't know that even existed. It must have auto-renewed and people who just clicked "Rejoin" ended up in that one. Eight in each of the two games, though. I will add you to the list. Next year, I don't know if there's a way to condense them back in or if we should just have two different categories - one for straight and one for spread.

    Not the same idiot who had them in the title game. Well, actually, yeah that would be the same idiot.

    Hard to stop a team that hits 10+ 3's though. They were sniping.

    I am in no way asking if anyone is ready to potentially see history in the making.

    Nope...not at all.

    Maryland-baltimore is lit as fuck.
