FINAL RESULTS:
 
Bain             76
 
Ramslayerr  61
 
Milly             56
 
JP                55
 
DoD             55
 
Qwest         50
 
 
Thanks everyone for playing!!!! Too bad one of us didn't win that million. Since I came in first and it would be really weird giving myself a prize I have decided to give the first place prize of a $40 PSN strore card to the 2nd place finisher, Ramslayer. And I'm giving the 2nd place prize of a $20 PSN store card to the 3rd place finisher, Milly. Enjoy!!!

Honestly, I don't see VCU as an 11 seed.  I see them as either a 5 seed or a 6 seed, possibly a 3 seed.  After all, they pretty much handed my Boilermakers (a 3 seed) their ass.  I still can't believe they went out that way.  You know, I'd half expect them to lose to a lower seed, but by almost 20 points?  Really?  Notre Dame pretty much got a similar send off.  Oh, and I picked Purdue to win it all, so my bracket was definitely busted.  My Final Four was Arizona, Kentucky, Purdue, and Florida.  With the exception of the Southwest (aka Upset City), I had every Elite Eight team right.

i watched a little bit of the kansas vs vcu game and for the most part, vcu just straight handled kansas except for when they let kansas come back from 14 points down in 4 mins. that would scare me if i were goin for vcu. that got back on track but that means at any time in the game they could have a let down like that, but other then that there d shut them down and they had there shots falling for them. if they play like they did then theyll be hard to stop. id prob say its goin to be uconn and vcu in the final. i think uconn would pull that one out.

yeah, i don't follow basketball at all either. for me there's only two sports seasons, Football Season and Not Football Season (unless the Twins or the Stars make the playoffs). i've been doing this for about five years now and it is fun. i've never had a really good bracket yet though.

Atleast i'm not last, Thanks Qwest!
The Uconn Vs Ky will decide the winner? Should be 1 hell of a game...This entire tournament has been pretty amazing.
I think its the 1st time a 1 or 2 seed didnt make the final four.

Yahoo's tie-breaker. the score of the final game. if there's still a tie then the prizes will get split evenly.
