The guy who picked Louisville must feel like he was relegated to the bench.

My 2 losses so far don't hurt me b/c I had Louisville and ODU losing in the 2nd round. I did pick Richmond to make it to the Sweet 16, so one upset has come through for me and now they get to play a #13 seed. And the team I have winning, Kansas, already has the #4 and #5 seed gone from it's region. Hopefully they don't choke like they did last year.

Rich,
I knew someone a few years ago who went 16 for 16 on the first day.Never been that lucky-I actually felt pretty good about going 10 for 16 today!

I actually got 12 right and feel like I should've done better. Puts me in a tie for 8th here and in a tie for 28th in the pool of 168 (where only one person finished with 8 picks -- all the other 167 got at least 9 right and the leader got 15/16). In another pool I'm in, I am in 31st out of 162 entries (where, again, only one entry picked 8 right with all the rest doing better).
ESPN reports 317 perfect brackets out of the 5.9 million entered. That number will dwindle today. The President's Barack-et went 14-2. I lost Louisville (but I only had them winning one more game). My wife picked Morehead St. (she knows nothing about college hoops and will probably beat me -- last year we actually both cashed in a large pool we joined). I just checked -- she only got 11, but she didn't lose a Sweet 16 team. Last edited by Rich; Fri Mar 18, 2011 at 05:41am.

Hey, Tony - I noticed someone put in a number of entries under your name. The reason I figured you didn't do it was I noticed one of them had...(wait for it)...DUKE listed as National Champion!
 And, if you really did put in a number of brackets, what about "The Sheet of Integrity"? I could jump up 5 or 6 spots if I didn't have all those extra entries to deal with...

That's why I lose sleep this time of year - not because I worry about my picks, but I'm forced to stay up and watch these close ones. Forced, I tell 'ya.
