Now, with the brackets set, the SDSU Aztecs (the truly most popular sports team in San Diego), will be one and done.

My Final Four consists of Florida, Arizona, Michigan State, and Louisville, with Louisville winning it all over Florida.

Weird, I have the exact same teams in. My only difference is that I have Florida beating Louisville.

Yay, maybe my guesses aren't as stupid as I thought. (I have Florida winning the entire thing - and Michigan St beating Villanova to get to the finals.)

After reading an article this afternoon, I've swapped out an upset, and now, sadly, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State are only meeting in my throwaway bracket.

In the NIT Robert Morris did it again. This is the second year in a row (beat UK last year) that they have been an 8 seed and knocked off a 1 seed. That's pretty impressive considering that an 8 seed is the lowest seed in the NIT. St. John's was their victim this year.

We are in an Alanlandian situation where Steve is both leading and closing the scoreboard. And I haven't set a score for tiebreaker, so in case of a tie I would lose. By the way, the scoreboard won't be posted until the overnight (or maybe morning) EDT when all Round of 64 matches have finished, but I need a little help identifying those competing:
AlpsNJ => Alps
Thing 342 => Thing 342 (obvious)
pianocello120 => pianocello
kendancy => ??
Leudimin => Me :happy:
mvfcfan => US 41
MattAKAZeffy => Zeffy
therealcu2010 => cu2010
dougtone => ??
AlpsNJ => Alps again
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

Yup, but he hasn't posted here. Only I have to identify kendancy, which I have no clue. Anyway, now that Round of 64 is finished here is the scoreboard. Stanford trolled all us except Zeffy (Who has and hasn't the Alanland related bracket) by winning New Mexico.

1. Thing 342, 270 points
2. pianocello130 (pianocello), 240 pts
2. kendancy (kendancy66), 240 pts
2. Leudimin (Me :happy:), 240 pts
2. therealcu2010 (cu2010), 240 pts
6. AlpsNJ (Alps), 230 pts
7. mvfcfan (US 41), 220 pts
7. MattAKAZeffy (Zeffy), 220 pts
9. dougtone, 210 pts
10. AlpsNJ (Alps) 2nd bracket, 190 pts.

By the way, my bracket, Pearson madness, isn't named after Lester B. Pearson, YYZ (Toronto airport), nor Pearson GA. It is named after other obscure thing :sombrero:

IMO, Wichita State is going to either win the whole thing or lose to the 8 or 9 seed in their bracket.

Glad I went with the latter.
Davenport, IA -> Valparaiso, IN -> Ames, IA -> Orlando, FL -> Gainesville, FL -> Evansville, IN

My bracket busted with Dayton beat Ohio State. It also busted with North Dakota State beating Oklahoma, Mercer over Duke and Connecticut over Villanova. I did pick Harvard to beat Cincinnati and Stephen F. Austin over VCU.

Stanford still trolling us. Also Dayton. After round of 32 the scoreboard is as follows:

1. (2.) pianocello130 (pianocello), 460 points (+220)
2. (1.) Thing 342, 450 pts (+150)
3. (2.) kendancy (kendancy66), 440 pts (+200)
4. (2.) therealcu2010 (cu2010), 420 pts (+180)
4. (7.) MattAKAZeffy (Zeffy), 420 pts (+200)
6. (7.) mvfcfan (US 41), 400 pts (+180)
7. (2.) Leudimin (Me :happy:), 380 pts (+140)
8. (6.) AlpsNJ (Alps), 370 pts (+140) (Championship fail: Villanova is out)
8. (9.) dougtone, 370 pts (+160) (Championship fail: Kansas is out)
10. (10.) AlpsNJ (Alps) 2nd bracket, 270 pts (+80)

Due to championship fails dougtone and Steve (well, only one of his brackets) have lost a ton of potential points. And I still can add up to 1160 points :sombrero:

I'm not too far behind in our contest. All 4 of my Fianl 4 teams are still in too. (Florida, Virginia, Wisconsin, and Louisville). What would be sort od sweet is if Dayton ended up going to the Final 4. I think it's safe to say they are this year's cinderella. I don't really consider Tennessee a cinderella since they are a BCS school.

Argh, Louisville has lost to Kentucky :ded:. At least I have a last chance: Florida getting to the final. dougtone already has its final score of 490. What is incredible is that the second bracket of Steve can still get the champion right.

1. (1.) pianocello130 (pianocello), 660 points (+200)
2. (4.) therealcu2010 (cu2010), 580 pts (+160)
3. (2.) Thing 342, 570 pts (+120) (Louisville out)
4. (3.) kendancy (kendancy66), 560 pts (+120)
5. (4.) MattAKAZeffy (Zeffy), 540 pts (+120)
6. (8.) AlpsNJ (Alps), 530 pts (+160) (Villanova out)
7. (7.) Leudimin (Me :happy:), 500 pts (+120) (Louisville out)
8. (8.) dougtone, 490 pts (+120) (Final score for him)
9. (6.) mvfcfan (US 41), 480 pts (+80) (Louisville out)
10. (10.) AlpsNJ (Alps) 2nd bracket, 350 pts (+80) (Michigan still in...)

Okay, only pianocello, cu2010 and Zephy can still get the champion right, while kendancy and Alps have their final scores up. I only can get Florida right if they win over Connecticut, and then the end for me.

1. (1.) pianocello130 (pianocello), 740 points (+80)
2. (2.) therealcu2010 (cu2010), 660 pts (+80)
3. (3.) Thing 342, 650 pts (+80) (Louisville out)
4. (9.) mvfcfan (US 41), 640 pts (+160) (Louisville out)
4. (4.) kendancy (kendancy66), 640 pts (+80) (Final score)
6. (5.) MattAKAZeffy (Zeffy), 620 pts (+80)
7. (6.) AlpsNJ (Alps), 610 pts (+80) (Final score)
8. (7.) Leudimin (Me :happy:), 580 pts (+80) (Louisville out)
9. (8.) dougtone, 490 pts (+0) (Final score)
10. (10.) AlpsNJ (Alps) 2nd bracket, 350 pts (+0) (Final score)

Edit: This is the final scoreboard.
