ESPN Tournament Challenge - Filling Out Your Brackets Open Thread

So this is an Open Thread dedicated to filling out your brackets. There is a group on ESPN Tournament Challenge already created. Click this ----> http://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/espn-tournament-challenge-mgoblog-group and follow the instructions to get signed up and be ready to fill out your brackets after the selection show.

 

This a wide open tournament this year and there looks to be really good match-ups all over the field. No easy breaks this year on the road to the Final Four! Go Blue!

Walmart Wolverines are OK in my book!

Not trying to jack your thread but I didn't want to start a thread for a simple question. When is the women's bracket announced? And does anyone know if the U-M ladies will be in? Thanks & Go Blue!



And to answer your post, there is so much unpredictability this year...I might just choose my brackets based off of the mascots (kidding...maybe)

The ladies bracket is announced on Monday night. UM does expect to be in the tourny this year, but as far as seed and destinatio I have no clue.

I actually am in a couple bracket pools this year, including the MGoBlog challenge, but someone at the office was actually doing a version of squares - similar to the Super Bowl tradition - for the NCAA Tournament. I bought a couple squares at $5 each, but I had never seen it done this way before. Has anyone else run into that?

As for the MGoBlog pool, I am personally hoping for some redemption. I tried to be clever about it last year and found myself in the 91st percentile, which is somewhere between New Coke and the   square of the Mendoza Line.

You get money after every quarter if you win. But there's a lot of options, so it's difficult sometimes as there are only a few numbers worth getting.

Crap.  I do not like this.  South Dakota?  They have that good point guard... and we've never dealt well with those this season.  I hope I don't see another App. State.

Too hard

Will have a go later but the way this reg season played out there's a lot of parity and there's very little certainly. It's good for TV and drama but it's bad for the bracket 

I expect to get knocked out early

This took a frusturating amount of time. Screwed up my account pretty bad, had to make a new one. On ESPN I am Wolverine-In-Ohio, with my entry being called Barrett Bongiorno Entry 1. It looks like I submitted a bunch of brackets but this is the only one that should be counted.
