Day 1 Is In the Books...

After a great day of basketball, we have one man standing alone in first place- Dennis only missed one game, and surprisingly it was his upset pick of Akron over Gonzaga that caused him to only have 15. In second place, we have 3 brackets with 14 of 16 right (Scott, Ann, & Julie who did lose a Sweet 16 team). In regards to the Hall of Shame, we have 4 brackets with only 11, which really shouldn't be considered so bad since that's what President Obama is sitting at after Day 1!

Today is a big day, with lots of upsets possible (and upsets picked, specifically NDSU over Kansas and Wisconsin over Florida State). We'll see what happens!

Round 1 Update #1

So, after the first 3 games are over, we have 4 perfect brackets that are 3 for 3... Congrats to Julie, Dennis, Robbie, and Scott who are all on the 'Hall of Fame'. That Memphis- Cal St. Northridge was a little too close for comfort, especially for the 3 brackets who had Memphis winning it all! But the Tigers prevailed in the end... onto the next 4 games!

- #5 Purdue vs. #12 Northern Iowa
- #1 North Carolina vs. #16 Radford
- #10 Maryland vs. #7 California
- #1 Connecticut vs. #16 Chattanooga

March Madness

It's that time of year again! March Madness has arrived, and everyone at InLine has gone 'all in' for a tournament pool... We have 17 brackets entered, and 5 different championship teams as follows:

DUKE- 4 picks
MEMPHIS- 3 picks
PITTSBURGH- 5 picks
NORTH CAROLINA- 1 pick
LOUISVILLE- 4 picks

Throughout the tournament we will provide the current 'Hall of Fame' brackets (i.e. top 3) and the 'Hall of Shame' brackets (i.e. bottom 3). Good luck to everyone and may your bracket not BUST this first weekend!
