CougCenter Bracket Challenge round one standings

by Jeff Nusser on Mar 21, 2009 7:37 AM PDT in Miscellaneous Blog Stuff

Well, if you needed evidence that I don't, in fact, know everything, you've got it. On my biggest stage, I put together my worst first round performance ever, picking just over 50 percent of the games correctly and losing three Sweet 16 teams and one Elite Eight team in the process. Yay me!

On the bright side, my possible points is only fourth lowest at this point.

That's just brutal, Nuss

I’d take that asterisk off as to not draw attention to myself.

I also went in and edited the post so people know which pick set is mine. You know, being in fourth and all.

Upsets for show

Final Four for dough. Everyone is still in it.

No Champion

I can’t believe the stupid Yahoo system. I changed one freakin game in the first round the morning of the tourney and it erased my Louisville pick for National Champion….Not that it matters really, but I picked Louisville to win it all if it becomes relevant..
