NCAA Tournament Pool

Hey all, I've set up a tournament pool that I know at least some of you have done in the past. Details are on the site, but please let me know if you have any questions. Play as many times as you like ($10/bracket), and all are welcome to participate, so please feel free to spread it freely , post it on your facebook, whatever. It's primarily for fun, but last year, the payout was over $700, which is certainly better than a punch in the face.

Thanks and good luck!

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

I can tell you who I don't have doing well, and that's unfortunately my Mizzou Tigers. They haven't been able to do dick away from Columbia this year, and unfortunately, that's where all of the tournament games are played. Who knows, though...

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

they beat pitt.. still not convinced. pitt was the weakest 1 seed, imo.

i'm pleasantly pleased watching all the big east teams take a squat. that's what you effing get!!!! 11 teams my ass.

still think the jayhawks are on the road to winning.

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

what can you say about Butler. They are obviously better than Duke and many others that have already fallen.

Butler is not flashy that is for sure but they get the job done.

Another thing for teams to think about is that Butler has been here before. Experience is paramount in the final push for the championship

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

i'm loving this so far. good job Arizona!

and for whatever reason, maybe its just his name, i'm so happy to see jimmer and BYU lose.

#1478715Post 16 of 43

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

me too.. I was over Jimmer pretty quick.

I was so happy to see Duke go. Good job Arizona

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

I'm sure not many people here care about the women's tournament, but Gig 'em! The Lady Aggies defeated Baylor last night for the first time this season to go to their first ever final four! As little as i watch women's hoops, i'm still kind of excited for my school!

correct.

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

lol, hence why i threw out the disclaimer.

sucks your team didn't get the purdue coach... i thought i heard last night he decided to stay at purdue. you guys should go after the wichita state coach. from what i've watched in the NIT, that guy has put together a pretty damn good team.

[quote] It looks like this will be a happy day for Mizzou fans. Nothing is official yet and there haven't been any announcements, but a source tells the Post-Dispatch that Purdue coach Matt Painter just called Mizzou AD Mike Alden to say he's "in" as the school's next basketball coach.[/quote]

#1479674Post 28 of 43

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

well i stand corrected. haven't seen that today, but last night the announcers were saying that he told purdue he wasn't gonig anywhere.

well good for you guys. :)

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

well...fuck. :what

Painter stays. Looks like he was just leveraging for more $$$$$, and he got it, plus years.

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

that makes two piles of words to eat...

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

ah, another mediocre national championship.... i found it extremely boooooring. butler couldn't get a rebound to save their life!

[QUOTE=Garrick;943057]ah, another mediocre national championship.... i found it extremely boooooring. butler couldn't get a rebound to save their life![/QUOTE]

...or sink a shot. How about that run in the 2nd half where they basically just could not hit a field goal? Brutal.

#1484212Post 35 of 43

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

yeah, something like 14 mintues without a fg? seriously? and the first drought of 8+ minutes without a fg inside the 3pt line? they were lucky to keep it as close as they did!

#1484237Post 36 of 43

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

That was atrocious basketball all around. I couldn't even finish the game. I bailed on it in the second half for Bourdain: No Reservations reruns on travel channel.

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

love that show.

#1484261Post 38 of 43

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

I can't believe that Butler did what they did yesterday. Just awful!

#1484316Post 39 of 43

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

that was a fucked up basketball game. it was hard to watch a team struggle so much in a championship for sure.

#1484450Post 40 of 43

Re: NCAA Tournament Pool

i enjoyed the women's game last night.... :lol:

i think even if A&M wasn't in it, it still would have been more exciting for me to watch than the men's.
