Off to roaring start in the great HERITAGE BRACKET contest, anyone else?
????
I have ODU, NORTHERN IOWA, and BUTLER to thank for my good start.
What is your ranking after day one?

Going to be a good weekend

Fish. How about this one.
Name your 16 winners of today's game.
It is very easy to call winners after the fact. I had Murray State, Ohio, ODU, and Wake Forest in my USA Today bracket.
See how I did that?
I would be stunned--absolutely stunned if Fish listed his picks for today's games.

Fish, I will even help you out some....
You can just look at this post and tell us who you have today.
Cornell-Temple?
Siena-Purdue?
Missouri-Clemson?
Xavier-Minnesota?
Georgia Tech-Oklahoma State?
Louisville-Cal?
Just give us your picks for those games.

I don't like the card today whatsoever, somewhat expecting a bad day............I have TEMPLE ranked to high for starters...............and PURDUE as well.
If TEMPLE and PURDUE can win, might survive the day..........might.

I found the scoring a little confusing at first and actually filled it out 3-4 times before I was convinced
Its a little tricky on how you wanna rank your teams..at least for me anyways as it was the first time I filled out a bracket that way..its pretty cool though
I am in the 700s..get em next year..I think my final 4 teams are still alive..maybe..I will check now
I think if you get the final four teams and the winner..and one of them is not expected..you should get some $

Anybody familiar with the NBA contest ?
25-0 or whatever seems impossible to win the 2k.
so there is a consolation prize of $500, but a lot of ties.... I think there were 27 games.
Week #3 Leaderboard
Name Points
DEFO 25
ANDY70 25
RADES34 25
MR.BASKETBALL 25
WOOD553 25
MQM 25
CHURN 25
looks like $2500 max, so these 7 get $357, is this correct ?

Climbed up to 46th through the conclusion of the early eight games...........survived.
Would love to nail at least 6 of the 8 evening games.........in fact, it's a must to stay in contention..........really don't like my chances.

I wish they would have the deal they had last year after the tournament. Do you remember it? If you landed on an even number and odd it was a bonus that you would receive on a deposit... It was the best deal ever!
