Howdy y'all! I'm back again with a free and fun tournament challenge through ESPN where many Aggies and many brackets compete against each other to see who's knows the most ball (or who's luckiest). Made 1 bracket enter it in the group, made 25, enter them all in the group! Let's have some fun and Gig'em! Go make your brackets!

Group is called Bucky Ball Madness

Also I'm not sure who won last year, but one of my brackets got second and I'm out for revenge

Seems like we should only do 1. I mean, for this group. Make it count.

I'm in with my unimaginative pick … all four #1 seeds make it to the final four. Duke-AZ in the semis, with AZ the national champs. Let's hear some "out of the box" picks. Anyone have the Ags going all the way?

Okay, I joined. Can't wait to see how early my bracket is crushed. Just in case you want to mock me openly and loudly my bracket name is VandyAg1.

Seriously, explain the intent here, Swift. Are you saying you can enter YOUR thing up to 25 times? Sure sounds that way. What's the point of "Bill Bob Aggie won this thing; he entered 18 times and 17 times his were probably the worst of the bunch, but he got one right!"

In any event, I'm sticking at 1, though I really kind of like the 2nd one I created with more underdogs.

If you buy two lottery tickets, does the second one not count lol…

It's all for fun and games, none of us are experts nor know the ins and outs of 68 rosters in the field. This is a silly contest free of charge for bragging rights, enjoy yourself

Rule of Thumb should be you must always have one bracket with your alma mater winning it all

I'd suggest limiting it to 2 or 3 brackets but it's your contest and I appreciate you doing it.

Edited to say see why you didn't limit it since ESPN's format allows for 25 brackets per person

I've gotta go change my Louisville to the regional final pick in several contests now to update my bracket, and I just know that once I do that, they actually will make it there anyway.

In with a "serious" bracket and a "which mascot would win in a fight" bracket.

Back in the day, Texags had an "official" bracket pool on the site here and they gave out badges to the top finishers and everything, until I actually won it one year and they scrapped the whole thing.

Illinois to the Final 4, Louisville over UCLA in the Sweet 16, and Michigan winning the championship were the only real value (yet strongly viable) picks I felt like I could find this year in standard 1-2-4-8-16-32 scoring. After the Louisville injury news, I almost dropped them in the 1st round to South Florida, but decided to just flip it to UCLA over Louisville in the Sweet 16.

I'm sure it's all wrong anyway!

Over 400 brackets are entered, a couple more hours to fill out a bracket or any fun brackets you may choose!

In one of my unserious brackets I have A&M and Prairie View in the Elite 8 before the Ags beat the Long Island Sharks in the final

Natural disasters and armed men had a decided advantage.

Georgia-Saint Louis was probably the most pathetic matchup of the entire bracket. I had to go look up Billiken and it is apparently some sort of good luck doll. So, even though bulldogs are lazy and slobber a lot, it would use the doll as a chew toy. Advantage UGA.

funny thing, I NEVER do brackets- that is probably my first one in 15 years. Beginners luck.

btw, St John's is my darkhorse FF, and im kind of sad i didnt pick them to even make S16. Always seems to be a big east team make it there, and they're hot. i did do a 2ns bracket but disnt enter it here- st Johns WAS in championship game in that one- losing to MI.
