Hey all.  Set up the tourney challenge for the board.  You can link to the group here:

I'm going with a new strategy. I've watched maybe 2 games start to finish and parts of 15 other games all year.  So I'm even less informed than usual.  Probably means I'll win.

PS Paul, I used the Redmen 20 art but I think we need to update it to Redmen 50 by now, no?

Just bumping this up to remind any and all interested about the Redmen.com tourney challenge.

Thanks I was looking for this and didn't see it.  I figured you would set this up.  Thanks again.

Mods, can we get this on a Sticker up top?

 

[espken]

Done

I suck at this every year so I fully anticipate a last place finish.

Had my best year on this for the 2019 Tourny (finished in the top 5), however I too expect to revert to the past somewhere in the lower half of the standings.

Done. Who do I pay and how much?

It's just for bragging rights but I might be able to swing an NTF trophy.  LOL

What's the name of the group? Clicking/pasting the link isn't leading me anywhere, even though I am logged in to ESPN.

*Whoops, probably should have searched Redmen.com before asking such a stupid question . . .

Section 10 looking good so far. 

PS only 1 out of about 15 million entries on ESPN correctly had all 8 winners today.  Crazy.

 

[austour]

As we enter the Sweet 16 Clats04211 has the lead in the Redmen.com Tourney Challenge.  This begs the question, who is Clats04211?  If you are entered and have a chance change your entry name to your screen name here. 

FWIW Clats had IL winning and TX and IA in his Final Four so Section 10 is still the presumptive leader right on his tails with his his entire Final Four still alive but SJU 85 is right on his tail and could ride Fl St and Baylor into the lead. 

Good luck gentlemen!

PS it looks like 2 of the 15 million or so entries had 15 of the Sweet Sixteen correct.  Pretty amazing.

Nice try.  It looks like it comes down to Section 10 with Arkansas and Kevin with Baylor.  How that game goes it appears goes the challenge.  There may be a very long shot way SJUNC can win if Houston wins the tourney and USC and UCLA, proud members of basketball city, win tomorrow.  Not sure.

Surprised, my picks have gone well.  Almost had all four of the final four if it wasn't for UCLA.  Go gonzaga and Baylor.,  Sometimes form actually holds up.

Yes Kevin, your picks have held up well.  However there are still only 3 scenarios where you win.  I've done the calculations and here are the potential winners:

If Gonzaga beats Baylor or UCLA Plays Baylor the winner will indeed be Kevin n Kamper

If Baylor beats Gonzaga the winner will be WWCMAD, this is Brian Flood who always shows up on my suggested friends list on Facebook.  Forgot what his screen name is.

If Gonzaga plays Houston then Jac34 wins.  Is this Jacstorm?

If UCLA plays Houston then Gene6600 wins, Is this Mean Gene?


PS I usually screw up one of these every year so don't shoot me, just correct me.
