Big Time Broken Brackets

Post by Rich K » Thu Mar 16, 2023 4:24 pm

Furman (13) 68 Virginia (4) 67
Princeton (15) 59 Arizona (2) 55

Looks like a great time for a 14 seed to beat a 3 seed.

As an aside, Montana State is better than Kansas State

It appears to me as though my bracket with Arizona in the Final 4 is Kur put.

I haven't done a bracket in a few years but if I had this year, I most certainly would have taken Arizona to go to the Elite 8.

You're not alone, each year I do 3 brackets, In one I had AZ in the sweet 16, another in the elite 8, then I had them losing in the championship game. Tonight I'm sitting here wondering what the heel I was thinking.

They are my new Gonzaga who usually busts my bracket, but this year I gave the Zags very little love. Now watch them Bulldogs take it all. ](*,)

These crazy results remind me every year why I decided around a decade ago to stop bothering with brackets and just enjoy the tournament. I don't want to be disappointed that I picked Arizona or Virginia to go to the Final 4 and they lost, I just want to enjoy watching it and revel in the chaos!

Looks like we should win by 26 applying the aggregate transitive property.

Me too, I haven’t filled out a bracket in a long time, I just want to enjoy the tourney.

I had one of the two. And I have MSU winning. Too bad my bracket is in my desktop and not submitted or bet on.

For $5 it's fun to do and I don't get too stressed out and can still enjoy all the games. Figure if I pick upsets there are going to be some I didn't. I'll be more stressed watching the Cats than for any bracket.

I don't know how many brackets were filled out, but saw a few minutes ago there are 787 still intact.

I bet the 7 left picked the "random bracket" auto fill option on ESPN!
