2014 NCAA Tournament Bracket Challenge

Post by gwcr »

March Madness is back! Brackets will be announced Sunday evening, and brackets need to be filled out before the first game starts on Thursday, March 20. This is the same site (CBSSports.com) that we used the last two years on the other site, so if you participated in the past you can use your same login info. If this is your first year, just go to the link and sign up. You will need to create a free CBSSports.com account if you don't already have one. Here is the link.

Password is "BeerBorg"

Working on getting a prize for the winner, but nothing confirmed yet. Will keep you posted...

Let me know if anyone has any issues getting in to the brackets.

Just confirmed that I need to send you and invite from the system if you haven't played in the past (even thought the "support" FAQ says otherwise...). So if this is your first year, PM your email to me and I'll send you an invite.

I see the entries are starting to come in. Remember, you have until Thursday around 11:00AM CT to get your picks in. Once the first game starts the brackets will be closed. The two "play-in" games on Wednesday are not part of the brackets, so you can wait until those games are done if you think it will affect your picks.

EDIT: Just sent an invite out to everyone that was in the bracket last year. Disregard if you have already filled out your brackets.

I'm not completely busted yet. I had Ohio State and Cincy. But I had both of them losing in the next round. So it shouldnt hurt too bad....I don't see Dayton beating Syracuse.

Missed a couple, but at least they were the overtime games. Didn't have anyone going past this game, so didn't hurt too bad. Good thing is it's still anybody's game at this point. Lots of good basketball to come!!
