NCAA men's bracket time

[Bill]

Best I ever did in the opening round was 30-2. I crowed about it for a day, then went 7-9 in the second round with 3 of my final 4 teams getting bounced. Easy come, easy go....

The national Bracket Challenge is down to 26 perfect brackets left. I suspect that number will be cut down significantly after the second round. But it's still pretty impressive to me. Of course that's because I know nothing about the 64 basketball teams involved. No doubt the top fantasy players are more knowledgeable about college basketball than I am at tying my shoelaces. I'm actually surprised that I only got 8 wrong. I must have used a good coin this year.

I’m a big Vols fan but I picked UCLA tonight.

 

[Bill]

Only 11 perfect brackets remain. That’s still pretty amazing to me!

Can’t be that big of a Vols fan


My brother-in-law went to UT and is a big fan, I’ve become quite friendly to the Vols.

This is insane.

The absurd odds of a perfect NCAA bracket

The odds of filling out a perfect NCAA bracket are about 1 in 9,223,372,036,854,775,808. That’s 9.2 quintillion and 23 percent less than the chance of picking one of the 7.5 quintillion grains of sand on the planet we picked at random.

I followed Chuck's link so I have 37 points in the Terps/Chuck group. Not sure where that puts me in the real group. Never trust an attorney, they lead you astray...
