    Default March Madness brackets

    I don't know anything about basketball, let alone college basketball.

    However, my work has created a march madness bracket so I thought I join it.

    You can win some prizes if you joined, and its free

    For me it was pure guessing, and I got Virginia beating Wisconsin for the win.

    Whats your picks look like?

    Maybe this will generate some form of interest in March Madness for me.

    I did up a bracket with a bunch of guys from work. We all threw in $10 and had over 20 go in it. I am relying on some smarty pants know-it-all "experts" on a few websites to hopefully help me bring it home. I dont follow College Basketball but I will normally do a bracket just for shits and giggles.

    I saw the first game to finish up was Dayton over Ohio State U. I went 0-1 to start the tourney. Ugh! So far the other early games are looking in my favor though.

    This is the first year I didn't do a bracket for money. Tired of throwing it away every year. Still filled one out for shits and giggles. I've got Florida, Michigan State, Louisville and Wisconsin in my Final Four. Louisville beating Florida for the National Championship. Back to back champs.

    Sitting at 3-0 so far with Dayton, Wisconsin and Pitt coming through.

    March Madness is one of the best times of the year! As with what always happens my bracket will slowly but surely fall apart. So far, so good though. However do any of you guys know where a person can watch the games online? There's a lot I can't watch due to the fact I don't get the channels. If anyone of you do know or have an account somewhere's you'd be willing to let me view the games from, that'd be amazing!

    Looks like we are tied. I lost Oklahoma and St. Joe's, both in overtime.

    I ended up with 11-5 score.

    the big losses I had were Cincinnati & Oklahoma who I had winning 2 games each.

    All my other losses were minor as those picks I had to lose in the next round anyway.

    So there is still hope.
