| | | TN Bracket Challenge
I decided to start a group for TN to pick winners in the NCAA Tournament Bracket at Yahoo Sports.The name of the group is Thrillnetwork Challenge, group #2026, password tn2004. Anyone can join, just prepared to lose to my awesome basketball knowledge. :)

| | | Be prepared to lose to you?? Wait a sec...your team has more wins than mine. Damn.
I'm in. You probably won't see Kent State in it, unless by some major fluke. But yes, I am in. I generally do well the first two rounds, then I stink.

| | | I'm hoping for a big turnout for this, so everyone join. It doesn't require any effort except for the one time selection process.

Same here. I dominate the first two rounds (42 of 48 last year), but then I sort of usually pick the teams I want to win instead of the teams that I think will win. But I'm in.

| | | I'm in....prepare to be humbled.
Lest I remind you of my awesome college sports predicting skills....9 straight BCS games. 70% of 2003-04 Bowl games, and the last 3 NCAA basketball champs.

| | | My fate in these things usually singlehandedly depends on my Bluedevils, the last four years I've picked them to win it all.....(and the one year they did, I won the bracket).

| | | I'll jump in as well. I won the bracket I was in last year so I'm on a hot streak. Anyways, since Raptordude can get a sponsorship for his bike riding, can't this contest get sponsored and a prize thrown in?

| | | I might go in. I placed 5th last year in the competition held within the sports section of the Baltimore Sun (that's damn good considering these were all sports guys). But it really all has to do with luck. How well can you predict the winner of a 8/9 game, you know?

| | | While we're busy predicting things here, how about predictions for the confrerence tournaments?
My picks-
ACC- Duke (surprise!)
Atlantic 10- Dayton (yes, beating St. Joe's)
Big East- Syracuse
Big Ten- Wisconsin
Big Twelve- Kansas
Conference USA- Cincinnatti
Pac-10- Arizona
SEC- Kentucky
Yup. Crazy, but thats how conference tournaments go.
