I don't understand how they say Florida was the overall #1 seed, but they gave them Wisconsin in the same bracket. Wisconsin is the best 2 seed in there.

I'd say they're better than Memphis, and maybe better than UCLA, but I'd take Georgetown over Wisconsin.

Wow, that bracket was very "non-Safari" compatible; however, FireFox came through in the clutch for me.
100% completed.
Look out for Mr. Kevin Durant and the rest of his fab-freshman crew.

Alright, so who should be in and who shouldn't be? ESPN is all over Drexel and Syracuse as getting shafted, and Arkansas and Stanford not belonging (I sense some disliking of my Illini as well...)
What do you guys think?

surprised syracuse didn't get in. also kind of sad air force was left out. I was really rooting for them. but we all know the Buckeyes and Oden are gonna rock the place and win it all.
I am also extremely surprised Pitt got a 3-seed. they didn't beat anyone this year except georgetown a long time ago and just a few days ago got the crap beat out of them.
also surprised Maryland got a 4 and marquette got an 8.
also very surprised NC State didn't get in.
my tough pick of the bracket is gonna be (5)Butler vs (12)Old Dominion.
5/12 upset happens every year and I am gonna be flip flopping on this pick all week.

Anybody else watch the KU game yesterday? That was some good entertainment.

Yeah, I enjoy watching Texas get up by 20+ points against KU twice this month and yet they still find a way to lose.

At least the first time they had the excuse that Durant got hurt. Not so the second...

I suck at these also. It won't stop me from playing, though. All I know is that all the people around here are shocked not only that Syracuse didn't get in, but that Niagara has to play-in to get into the tournament....

well today is the last day to sign up
I am surprised there weren't more members doing the bracket given the sheer number of people I know who normally don't follow sports but cough up ten bucks this time of year to participate in a pool.
I have Florida, UCLA, Georgetown, and Ohio State in my Final Four. Having Ohio St taking it all in the end.

It's called "gambling". Many people don't participate in pools unless money is on the line. And some people will participate in anything if money is one the line.

In my class (big lecture hall) this evening about 20% of the guys had their laptops streaming the games from cbs.sportline.com.
And, wouldn't you know, my MacBook wouldn't play the video because of the crappy windows-only source.
But the guy in front of me had a 17" Dell. So I just shut mine down and watched his. When his (and everyone else's) batteries went dead (3 hour class) I opened mine up and kept up with the live updating scoreboard page.

I wasn't trying to fit your pattern, I was trying to match the series of three items.
