2015 NCAA Tournament Pool

"I'm still feeling good about taking a second mortgage out on the house for this year's tournament." - me, after day 1 ever year.

"Tent? I can live in a tent. I can make a tent work." - me, after every tournament

 

[edroberts]

Bottom of the barrel after day 1. I'm awesome.

Why can I not see the group's standings? I can see our average points, and that's it.

Browser trouble, I guess. I can see it on my phone. Man I suck.

Not part of the pool, but figured this was a neat tidbit. At ESPN, only 273 perfect brackets left out of 11.5 million after yesterday's games. Last year after one day there were 18,500 left out of 11 million, so this year has been super mad already.

 

[1977Brewer]

Coupe y'all had 'Nova going all the way. Wow this one's been nuts.

 

[eatmorefrogs]

Yeah, big shakedown today.

The PPR is starting to spread out a bit. A lot of Georgetown picks and we'll see how the ND/Butler and Arkansas/UNC games pan out in the next hour or so; those are both pretty split too.

 

[1977Brewer]

UNC slaughtered AR. Butler/ND is a good one.

 

[hawgwild81]

UNC slaughtered AR. Butler/ND is a good one.

Slaughtered is a bit strong. It was within 5 points back and forth till last 3 minutes. But UNC was definitely the better team. Hard to win a game with 20+ turnovers.

 

[sfrisby]

Not looking pretty from my seat.

 

[Helly]

I'm toast. Just trying to stay out of last place now.

 

[wtaylor3]

I might just be in a bromance with tom izzo lmao

 

[Helly]

They played incredibly well today. That was fun to watch.

Getting annihilated for three minutes in college ball means the game.

 

[wtaylor3]

Unfortunately, I work third shift 7 days a week and they keep giving sparty the noon game. Hope I actually get to watch a game soon

When someone wins, we should send the winner good beers which are local to them. I'm sure I have some stuff from Bells that is only available in the Upper Penninsula of Michigan. That would be a treat!

I was actually planning on 2 bottles from Paw Paw brewery out of paw paw, mi. Bells, founders, and Atwater are close to me, however I want a brewery that makes good beer and the winner hasn't heard of.

 

[1977Brewer]

One HB, one local, is what I'm planning on...and a Shiner Bock or two. I'm so pissed at SMU I could spit.

I've got some from Upper Hand brewing (Bells). I have the UPA and the Upper Hand Lager.. I'll have at least one of those left. I have some other local stuff too.

That's cool, kind of grinds my gears that they're not at least distributing upper hand throughout Michigan.

I'd even settle for it being available at bells general store as that's my lhbs

Looking good folks... I moved BACK into FIRST place with last night's victories...

Tied with eatmorefrogs/Daytonflyer85

With last night's games I moved firmly into last place. Tied with nobody.

I like to think of it as 18th place.

I may get the award for furthest fall...so much for my brief reign

 

[eatmorefrogs]

my bracket is a bit of a scheduled implosion in the elite 8, I only picked one 1 seed for the elite 8 and none for the final four.

My possible points remaining drops to zero in 3...2...1...

Seriously? Thanks. I thought I had it locked up.

 

[1977Brewer]

Still firmly entrenched in the middle of the pack. Brackets as metaphor for life.

 

[JonGrafto]

Go 'Sconsin

 

[sompls]

Sweet! 6th place and nowhere to go but down. Ahh well, there's always next year.

 

[eatmorefrogs]

My bracket is officially in self-destruct mode.

The man does not lie.

 

[huckbof]

The only ones with over 800 points is myself and sompls????

 

[JonGrafto]
