I filled one out.  ESPN isn't displaying my profile name that I thought I updated, though.  I'm with one with the gibberish number for now. :P

I bet a lot of people's brackets have been busted already...or will be in the next three days.

I mean, 75% of teams will lose between today and Sunday. I think that's pretty well assured.

I picked the wrong team to beat Kentucky.  *sigh*

Aside from Kentucky, I now have a second incorrect pick to advance to the second round in BYU.

I'm likely out of the running already. SEC killed me. Oh well. Now just to cheer for good games.

For the men's tourney, only 4 perfect brackets remain.

For the women's tourney, there's still 45,325.

This is probably the first time all my elite 8 teams remain alive after the first round. My last-place dynasty in our group (two of the last three years!) appears to be on the ropes.

My brackets are decent so far (my 8-year-old is still leading the family pool, just like he did last year). However, I'm all in for the schadenfreude towards SEC commissioner Greg Sankey, who the other day advocated for eliminating automatic bids from smaller conferences so more major conference teams could get in, and has now seen Oakland and Yale take out Kentucky and Auburn.

It's the Cinderella teams that make the tournament as fun as it is, especially in these first few days. I'd actually advocate for an expanded tournament if that meant mid-major conference winners got in even if they didn't win their conference tournament. For example, the Long Beach State story was good this week, but UC Irvine would have had a much better shot at advancing in the tournament (and by much better, I still mean very small, but as we have seen, one never knows...).

The James Madison Dukes will face Duke after beating a school located in a city named after James Madison.

I did two brackets. I entered the wrong one into the group.
Indiana: counties 100%, highways 100%
Illinois: counties 100%, highways 61%
Michigan: counties 100%, highways 56%
Wisconsin: counties 86%, highways 23%

Good thing I picked JMU for that round! That does eliminate the remaining perfect brackets though.

How appropriate that a team called the Dukes will play a team from Duke University in the second round! Probably going to call this game the Battle of the Dukes?

JMU, Yale and Grand Canyon have further tainted my bracket.

It's amazing that some of my bracket branches are perfect while I totally screwed up others.

Part of the fun is rooting against your own bracket because there's a low seed on an entertaining tear.

And, sadly, there is very little of that this year.
