I am not sure what time the brackets close, but if they are still open get your brackets in.  Official 64 team tournament starts around noon today.

I think that WCC St. Mary's from Calif. is a dark horse to watch.

Oh my -- my bracket is a sea of red!!  The only positive?  My alma mater, UCSD, only lost by 3.  We did not even have inter-collegiate sports when I attended.

I hope it is a good game unlike the Women's game yesterday.  I just don't get why they have to start the game at almost 9pm Eastern

I see I have been comfortably in last place from wire to wire! I thought my theory going in was sound:

Do not follow the regular season or tournament games.
Do not do any research
Do not listen to bracketologists.
Do not put any real thought behind the picks.

Do fill out the brackets as quick as possible (under 5 minutes).
Do trust my gut
Do hope to catch lightning in a bottle.

I have resounding proof, IT DID NOT WORK!

Congratulations, Robert!

While not the outcome I was hoping for in the final game, it was another very good game that went down to the wire.  One of the very best NCAA Men's Basketball tournaments that I have ever watched.  Where else do you get a team that was down 10+ points battle back to win the semifinal game to go to the championship only to have the same ill fate happen to them.

Huza to Robert, 2025 Champion!

I watched the last 47 seconds, and I don't believe I have ever seen a BB team shoot themselves in the foot like Houston did!

Yeah, that was unfortunate.  Completely opposite of the composure they had during last few minutes of the game against Duke in the semis.

It's a great day to be living in gatorland.  We moved from the SF Bay Area to Gainesville over a year ago.

Thank you.  It was another great game.  I thought Houston was going to win.  I don't think I've seen a team fall apart like that in the last minute of a game.  They were so good in the closing minutes of the Duke game.
