I'm not in the board "pick-em". I just do an individual bracket on my own.

Here are my Final Four: Michigan State, Florida, Arizona, and Iowa State.
Championship game: Florida vs Arizona
NCAA Champion: Arizona (yes I'm on their hype train) Young, physical, inside/outside game.

Won my bracket last year. 700 bucks. So this year I’m not doing one. Like striking jackpot twice. Not happening.

Ya gotta believe.
I met a guy in The Keys once that had won Lotto twice....once in Ohio, once in Florida. I said "and you're in line again you greedy ba$$tard?" We got a good laugh.

I think LionJim could explain to you that since this years bracket and last years are 2 independent events, and the outcome is not purely random, it is based on your skill in picking...Last years win has no bearing on this years result.

So if you have an individual pool, it sounds like you can only beat yourself.... Maybe Bob would be interested in making his own pool.

The whole key is getting the 8 vs 9 games right (all of them) and picking the right upsets. Most of the upsets come in the 6 vs 11 and 7 vs 10 games. Need to get lucky and pick those teams seeded 10 and 11 who will win. After that you can see a bigger upset like High Point at 12 winning which is rare and impossible to predict.

What a lame tournament so far. Very few great game or Cinderella type moments. Wisconsin vs high Point and VCU vs UNC. The rest were 20 point blowouts. Thanks again NIL and labor law

Only got 23/32 in the first round. My 8 year old son and 10 year old daughter both got 26/32. Depending on how your group scores, getting the final 4 and champion off set poor first rounds most of the time.

Santa Clara-Kentucky was one of the greatest games I’ve ever seen.

Yeah I only went 22-10 but all of my teams advancing to the Sweet 16 are alive. Counting that as win.

Once one of these 1 seeds goes down then many brackets will fall apart. Whether Duke can get out of the East will be a big thing to watch. That will be tough for them. Florida and Houston on a collision course. I think Michigan and Zona get to the Final 4.
