Well I'm pretty much toast. With only UNC alive I picked them to goto the Fianl 4, then lose. So I can only get a few more points. Huge gap between 4 & 5.

I was in first till I went 0-2 yesterday.  Of course my team is UConn and I didn't have the balls to take them so it's my own fault.  Hopefully they can win 2 more games and bury my bracket a little more.

Yeah, like I said before, I don't think it really matters how much you know about the teams.  Especially for someone like you James.  You're a sports fan at heart and I'm sure you know the basics at the very least about college basketball.  You know not to take a 16 seed or make crazy picks.  As long as you stuck with most of the high seeds this year you had a pretty good shot.  That doesn't happen every year, some years there are lots of upsets.  That hasn't really been the case this year, though two 1 seeds have lost in the elite 8 (Pitt and L'ville).  I was a perfect 8 for 8 with my elite 8 teams, and now I'm 0 for 3 so far with my final fours and could go 0 for 4 if UNC holds on.  Talk about a sudden turn of events.  My bracket is pretty much shot now, so ALL of my attention is now devoted to UConn.  They have to play Michigan St. now IN Detroit.  That doesn't seem very fair.  I'll take my chances though.

I did pretty damn good for someone who didn't watch any games this season and did zero research. Just went by instinct when choosing, although I might have did better had I not tried to remember exactly who was good back in the early 90s when I did watch college basketball.

Next year I should enter one of those leagues where you can win cash.
