Damn!!! I came in second this year in my office pool as well. First place (winner take all) went to a female as well. Prize was $1250 this year.

Congrats to Lucyjoyce.

Sheesh!

I still swear, someday we are going to actually meet this "LucyJoyce" , and "she" is going to be a 60 year old retired bookie from New Jersey....would explain all the expertise in picking fantasy football and NCAA winners.....

She says her method is; "If the name looks pretty, I clicked on it. :wink:

Pretty unlikely I'll be so lucky this year.

Gators are playing Kentucky today - who just locked up the SEC championship. Maybe the Wildcats will be feeling generous. Otherwise Gators' bubble will be close to bursting.

I set up a 2010 league. The following link should take you straight in if you have a Yahoo id:

If the above link doesn't work, try this one:

Note that brackets can't be filled out before Sunday March 14th. Games start March 18th.

Well, I know nothing about the NCAA, but I went as far as consulting Google, so at least I now know what the letters stand for. I will look on it as as an adventure and give it a whirl. I expect to come in last, but that's ok as have never attempted anything like this before. I will just go with random teams/numbers, which ever way this is done. :roll:

Done!

Oh, try again Allison! We need to up the estrogen content of this competition! The brackets won't even be populated until Sunday, so you have a few days.
