    Created more in hope than in expectation. This probably won't take off due to lack of interest. But giving it a go anyway. :cool:

    It's a Bracket game. Where you set up your own group, with your own group page on the website. competing against other friends and their brackets

    Here is an example of a bracket
    2013bracket2-e1364416570878.png

    You make your predictions for each round of the NCAA Tournament, You score points for each correct prediction, with bonus points If you predict a lower ranked team to beat a higher ranked team

    The points awarded increase with each round

    Looks like it's just you and me "Bateman". Who do you like in this tournament. I think Arizona might have what it takes to win this. The Pac12 champions are serious contenders. Lead by NBA star in the making "AG" Arron Gordon and a strong supporting cast, They will be a difficult team to beat.

    I have Arizona too. Beating Kansas in the Final. I think Embiid's return will give Kansas the boost they need to get to the final, But I think Arron Gordon will lead his team to victory. Or they could both get knocked out before the elite Eight:D Who knows? :confused:

    There in no such thing ad the perfect bracket. In fact if you have a perfect bracket, Warren Buffet will give you 1 Billion Dollars

    Done, Florida (no 1 seed in South and overall) beating Louisville (no 4 in mid west)for me with Michigan State (no 4 in East) and Oklahoma State (no 9 in West) in final 4.

    Just having a look over mine, I have Arizona going out in last 32 (so they should make the final 4 :o) Kanses going out to Florida in Elite 8 (if they get over a sweet 16 match with Ohio State as long as they get over Dayton and Syracuse etc etc etc :))

    The bracket is fantastic this year with so many great games to look forward to. Now to clear all kids ****e from sky plus so its at 0 for Thursday

    Is that your bracket? Just to let you know you have gone for 2 number 9's to beat 2 x 8's. Just in case this is a mistake as you have every other higher team seed winning every game :p
