How are we supposed to make a pick in Kentucky's first round game if we don't know whether they are going to play Manhattan or Hampton?

Pretty sure I'll be getting them all correct this year.

Just have that feeling.

FYI - My "name" is jac070 1 because that is what I was in ~1999 when I signed up for the original go.com site.

Just bringing it forward.

Time's running out.

1:00 is the first game and the end of signing up.

Of those who are playing are at least 4 or more of my family members. The group is open to ANYONE and EVERYONE.

Don't be a fucking pussy.

Play another game along with this one:

Make a deal with your significant other: Each time you get a correct pick, your partner and you try another sex position.

Isn't that enough motivation?

It certainly didn't take long for my Bored bracket to become a pile of #2. Two of my Final Four are out after only five hours.

Of the 11.57 million brackets entered in ESPN'S Bracket Challenge, ONLY 273 are perfect.

Last year, there were 18,471 correct after day 1.

My bracket is still on life support as my winner (Duke) is still in it. However, my brother is in another pool where as long as KY goes all the way, he wins $1K. So since I'm playing for fun, I have to hope my bracket eventually busts.

I think one of you has picked the winner, hope so anyway. SteelersFan is in a similar situation -- if KY wins, he splits $250. If Duke wins, he wins something like $32 by himself. GO KENTUCKY!

Down goes Kentucky! Wisconsin ends the Wildcats' perfect season and will play Duke in the finals Monday.

I think the officials got caught up in Wisconsin's comeback because they definitely helped the Badgers with two critical calls.

The first one was on the shot that tied the game at 60. The Wisconsin player let that one go a full second after the shot clock expired.

Then a little bit later, Wisconsin had, I believe, a one point lead, the player drove to the basket and missed the shot. Kentucky was called for a phantom foul- never even came close to hitting the shooter's hand.

And I'm not even a Kentucky fan.

Not sure how much impact those calls would have really had in the end, since that was a 4-point swing in a game that Wisconsin won by 7. The momentum shift may or may not have been enough for my Wildcats to continue the magical run one more game.
