How are yours doing? I filled out 10 on ESPN with 2 only missing the Georgetown game. I also have 2 that missed 2 and 4 that missed 3.

Great games almost all around today. Three overtime games and a couple other buzzer beaters, bunch of upsets... Butler won, Notre Dame lost... What more could I ask for?

What would make them fun is it they made them no holds barred, duel to the death matches held in cages. Last man standing wins and goes to the next round.

I always thought it would be great if when celebrities had some kind of feud, they'd settle it in an Octagon... Imagine the ratings of Shaq vs. Kobe or Rosie vs. Trump. That would be much fun.

Probably the best first day ever. I only fill out one bracket, because I'm a man, and I got 12 of 16. 3 of those games I lost (ND, SD St, and Texas) could have easily won. Texas was the biggest choke job ever. Up 8 with 2:30 to go in OT? They should never have lost that game.

Only one loss was going to the Sweet 16 though, Georgetown, and they just didn't show up. So I'd call it a successful day.

Go Wofford

Texas stopped showing up after they dropped out of Number 1. Hell, Mizzou only got in because they beat Texas when the decline started.

I love filling out brackets... I was in 9th (so were 200+ people) until the Clemson loss... Now I'm in like 230th or something like that.

HAHA I love Kansas losing! Had them going out to Ohio State anyway! Its awesome. BYU losing hurt my bracket, but at least I didn't have Kansas in the finals like seemingly everyone else on the planet!

Go Kentucky!

I didn't even fill out a bracket mostly because I was tired of hearing all of the Kansas hype (sportswriters were especially lazy in making them Number 1 week after week simply because they couldn't think of any other teams to put there).

yea, the only reason I did one is because they are doing brackets for prizes at my work with no buy in cost as a sort of last fun thing before a bunch of people's end dates at the end of the month.

Kansas screwed me and Michigan State is damn lucky they blew a huge lead. I will be lucky to have 9 or 10 of the Sweet 16 in my bracket my the end of today.

2 teams from Indiana left, 2 teams from Ohio, 2 teams from New York... Only 1 from Kansas and 1 from North Carolina. Who saw that coming?
