Hows your bracket looking?

Submitted by ralphgoblue on March 29th, 2021 at 2:03 AM

im in the 99.9% in my POD with 81,861 people

I think If Michigan beats Baylor,i could win my group ..because 57% picked Gonzaga in my group.Michigan was 4.1% (9th highest -BEHIND FSU,Bama and Texas)

My final 4 picks were Michigan ,Gonzaga, Illinois and Baylor (Michigan over Baylor for NC) 

My Elite 8

Michigan-Bama

Illinois-Houston

Baylor-Arkansas

Gonzaga-USC 

I had Ohio St losing to Oral Roberts,UCLA over MSU ,BYU and Texas (losing to Bama)

You wrongly titled your post. It should have read, “my bracket is looking awesome, and I deserve your envy. feel free to share your pathetic performance, but know that I probably won’t read it because you are beneath my awesomeness.”

maybe you ran into character limitations?

This OP is what one might call a humble brag. 

I made a bunch of free brackets on ESPN, like 9 of them, I had Gonzaga in one, Baylor in another and Illinois in one but I had Michigan winning in the other 6, yes I  am a homer but with good reason.

I love how seriously this team takes the game and how efficient and disciplined they are.

I like our chances to win it all and Juwan is undefeated in his first tournament just like s guy named Steve Fisher.

I picked Michigan over Houston in the championship game. So that’s still possible. But I don’t really care about brackets now that online gambling is a thing.

Mine is not great but it's good enough to be leading my bracket pool. My Final 4 was Michigan, Gonzaga, Illinois and Arkansas. I picked Illinois to win it all just because I figured everyone else would pick Baylor or Gonzaga, so that sucks for me. If Baylor loses I might still be in decent shape, but I had M losing to Gonzaga in the FF, so after Tuesday night I'll be actively rooting against my bracket anyways.

I'm currently leading my work pool.  If Michigan wins it all, I win.  If Gonzaga wins, there's about 7 guys with a chance to win.  If another team that isn't Michigan or Gonzaga wins, I think I win.

So far my bracket is perfect.

That's because, unlike other, more impetuous persons, I did not rush into things. Slow and steady wins the race.

So I wait till after the games to decide how I would have predicted the outcome.

Before I say anything, yes, I am one of those people that some hate, the one who has their hands in multiple pools.

Now, that said, I do have one that is actually still in OK shape considering, whereas the other one has already got past the dumpster fire stage and is smoldering after being put out mercifully by local firefighters.

I have 6 of the Elite8 left in my work pool(the only bracket i had filled out), Had BYU instead of UCLA, failed 1 seed instead of Beavers.  final4 of G vs M, Razorbacks vs Cougars.

 Figured Michigan would have a tough game vs Gonzaga with Livers but an L without him.  In the final Houston would win over Gonzaga, total 155.

in good shape to retain the belt in the work pool!

Rewind back to before the season and where everyone thought this team would be.  the prognosticators had Michigan bottom half of the conference.  uncertainty over how to replace the output of Simpson and Teske, talk of NIT.  what a masterful job putting this squad together and coaching them up.  as unexpected as the ‘89 run.  I’m thankful for a tremendous season and run to the Elite8.   no matter what happens next it’s been great to see, I hope they wreck my final matchup.  Now LET’S WIN THIS, GO BLUE!!!

My FF is intact, so I’m happy about that. Zags, Michigan, Baylor, and Houston. Unfortunately those are the only EE teams I got right. 

That being said, if all the favorites win the next two nights, I’ll be looking good to win my pool!
