Congratulations to B. Ramsey's Money!, who squeaked back into first place in the Rocky Top Talk NCAA Bracket Challenge last night when the dreaded Florida Gators beat the Buckeyes for the National Championship.

That has to be a bittersweet victory, huh?

Anyway, thanks to everyone for playing. I'm hoping to do something like this for football season (when it finally rolls around), so if y'all know of a better site that has group games likes this or if you have any ideas to make it even more fun, let me know.

Wow

So, the overall winner of the national deal finished with 1610 of a possible 1680 points. Impressive! I guess approx. 2.9M brackets were filled out on this thing, so I'm pretty happy to have finished with a "6-figure ranking"! :)

I'm still upset that we tossed our Sweet 16 game to the Bucks. Not saying that we could have beaten UF last night, but we should have at least had a shot at Memphis. Grrr!

King

I like that title. I think I'll change to KingVolBrian just to remind everyone of my uncanny ability to pick the tournament. Or maybe I should go by Sam "Ace" Rothstein. I think the WWL should even give me a job as an analyst. Hell, they hired Lou Holthhhhhhhhhhh (saliva dripping everywhere).
