Is back this year! I have switched it up and decided to go with cbssports.com this year since they are now the official partner.
As of now I am using the scoring that we used last year which heavily favors the later games in the tournament.
2nd round is 1 point
3rd round is 2 points
Sweet 16 is 4 points
Elite 8 is 8 points
Final Four is 16 points
Championship game is 32 points
Also when you sign up PLEASE USE YOUR SCREEN NAME and not your regular name so its easier to keep track of. To change your name you just click on the OPTIONS tab on the top of the page and change it there.
Now the prizes
First place gets 1 free year!
2nd place gets 6 months free!
3rd place gets 3 months free!
Random drawn name gets 1 month free!
The password to log in is basketball
Selection Sunday is March 17th and the you can fill it out anytime after that and before the first games starts!

Oak is probably happier than a pig in poo tonight with Indiana beating Michigan. I bet he's drunk.

It was a hell of a finish and choke job by Michigan. I'm pretty sure it's the loudest I have ever yelled at the TV.

My "gut" (I usually revise several times) had Okie State in the Elite 8. They're as talented as any team in the country and could be a sleeper. That said, they could also go down to Oregon in the second (first) round.

My theory is that in tossup games, the team with the best player on the floor has a big advantage. Okie State has that advantage against basically anyone they'll play.

I use a similar strategy. Those tossup games are almost always close and the team that has a guy who can take over the game single-handedly has a big advantage.

Man this really chaps my butt. Checking leader board, it said I had two losses. By my mind I had only the Oregon game as a loss. Checking my picks, my pick of Wichita State got changed to Pitt. Unbelievable. Not sure how that happened, probably when I was checking %'s. Oh well, my mistake, everyone else's gain.

That's a good idea, but I doubt it'd fly.

Good work, KC. I'm only 44 behind you and had the Zags in the final 4, so look out.
