Gonna share this over here too, because I gotta show HawkeyeReport some love. I decided to do my own bracket, which you guys can vote on for each game......because I'm bored and I don't see anyone else spending their newfound free time doing this. The media tried, but they filled out their brackets themselves and failed more often than not with the results.
I'm gonna give you the chance to make your own failures!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
-------------------------------------------
So the NCAA says no tournament this year.
"Build a model airplane!", says the fairy. Well, I'm not buying it.....
If they're gonna deprive me of both the wrestling and basketball championships this year, then I'll just have to take matters into my own hands.
I give to you, the viewers of Rivals (free of charge), the unofficial (but really official) bracket for the NCAA Basketball Tournament......according to EvilMonkey.
And no you cannot disagree with the final pairings once they've been released. Deal with it.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
The bracket, in full, will be revealed at 2 PM CST (because #best time zone).
But seeing as how I'm such a generous guy, I'm willing to give you guys not one, but TWO spoilers (again, free of charge.......not that I'm implying anything) before the final reveal.
Introducing the four #1 seeds that will comprise EvilMonkey's Bracket of Doom:
Lastly, since there's still time before the final reveal, my final spoiler to you are the 12 teams fighting on the Bubble to make the cut for the Last Four In..........and maybe, just maybe, if your argument is convincing enough, I could be persuaded to change who I originally penciled in for those final spots, and who I left out.
You're welcome.
P.S. Yes, I'm fully aware that the tournament would've started last week, but I'm bored and got tired of waiting for next year....
Also, yes, liberties were taken, and due to the unfortunate circumstances regarding the tournament's cancellation, I had to go old school and grant the auto bids to the top seeds for each conference that had not yet finished their tournaments.
I'm gonna give you the chance to make your own failures!
