Road to March Madness!!

Over the past couple of years I done a few March Madness tourneys or NIT like last years NIDT.  This year I will do a 64 feild March Madness tourney at the end of the year.  I will be posting the rules and dates of tourney games soon.  There will be a new way to get in this year.  I will create Pools for several conferences and the winner of each of those conferences will get a bid to the tourney.  That will not be the only way to qualify! Everyone can compete in a week long contest picking the spread and ML on 8 games(4 of each) right before the tourney.  I will select the seeds from that week.    I will post more info SOON!!!!!  

Here are the dates to remember!!

Championship week   Feb 22-28

Final Four       Feb  15-21

Elite 8           Feb   8-14

Round of 16     Feb  1-7

Round 0f 32       Jan  25-31

Opening Round   Jan  18-24

Seeding round     Jan  17-23  

Jan  24   will be the day I post seeds and you see if you made the field or not.  

Rules and scoring will be posted soon.

I might add 3 more auto bids next week!   I have not decided If I want just the major conferences as auto bids this year or do some more.  We will see.   REMEMBER each league you make picks for that conference only.  I will check the winners picks before they get the automatic bid and will award it to next person if you do not follow the rules.    GL to you all!!

Also I will post the rules next week so you know ahead of time What you will be doing in the Tourney.  

Sorry the other ACC link is bad!!
