Anyone who wants to enter, just post your "round of 64" pick before noon EST on Thursday.

If your team wins, post your "round of 32" pick before noon EST on Saturday.

Warning, that's a fast turnaround, especially if the team you picked plays late on Friday night. So make sure to get the second pick in before the second round begins.

After that we have four days to think about our next picks. Choose carefully and have fun.

I'm still reviewing my options to get the highest points without getting BUMPED from this contest before posting my first round pick. (see what I did there rsvman? )

Right now I'm going homer with Wisconsin.....But I reserve the right to edit this prior to the deadline.

    If Wisconsin can shake off that beating they took at the hands of scUM, they'll be ok. I'm planning on going with my boys (Michigan State) but my confidence level with them is about 50%. Such a young team. Even if they lose, can't be worse than that abomination on the court last year 😢

        Sure. I guess I'll have to check who's actually in it.

        Hoss7504 I wouldn't quite refer to it as a beating although they did pull away at the end, but after the press was on and I think they had 3 or 4 layups to get the score up there, otherwise it was under 10 most all of the 2nd half. Wisconsin goes through stretches where they can't score, it's tough to watch.

            I'm IN!! This was fun and I even won nothing a couple years ago.😁

              I suppose you are correct about the game. If your guys get it together, they can make a run. I'll be happy if my guys win the 1 game.

                  Hoss7504 I'm right there with you....1/2 perplexed by the seed, but the committee clearly did not like our resume when they came out with the top 4 seeds and we were nowhere to be found when nationally ranked #7....I suspect UM would have been where Uw was if they lost the title game and vice versa.

                    Just a reminder....If you want to be in, post your pick in this thread prior to noon EST tomorrow.

                    I'll go with Michigan State for the first round.

                    I too am going with WICHITA STATE in the first round. (Sorry azgreg-I did my research early this a.m. but couldn't get off the phone to post and you entered 30 minutes ago to beat me to the punch).

                    Michigan State in the 1st round for me as well. And the game is on St. Paddy's Day?! Sparty on, my friends!

                    With so much love for Wichita State, I'll try to gain a couple of points by going with Princeton (12) in the first round
