    Off to roaring start in the great HERITAGE BRACKET contest, anyone else?
    ????


    I have ODU, NORTHERN IOWA, and BUTLER to thank for my good start.

        Fish. How about this one.

        Name your 16 winners of today's game.

        It is very easy to call winners after the fact. I had Murray State, Ohio, ODU, and Wake Forest in my USA Today bracket.

        See how I did that?

        I would be stunned--absolutely stunned if Fish listed his picks for today's games.

          Fish, I will even help you out some....

          You can just look at this post and tell us who you have today.

          Cornell-Temple?
          Siena-Purdue?
          Missouri-Clemson?
          Xavier-Minnesota?
          Georgia Tech-Oklahoma State?
          Louisville-Cal?

          Just give us your picks for those games.

              I don't like the card today whatsoever, somewhat expecting a bad day............I have TEMPLE ranked to high for starters...............and PURDUE as well.


              If TEMPLE and PURDUE can win, might survive the day..........might.

                  If I have as good a day as yesterday, I will be a favorite to finish in the money at tournaments conclusion...........however, very tough day.

                      76th

                      great prizes... i could do without the ranking format though... but it is unique... and may be a blessing in the end... after 11/16 yesterday im pretty much out of the traditional bracket contests

                            I found the scoring a little confusing at first and actually filled it out 3-4 times before I was convinced

                            Its a little tricky on how you wanna rank your teams..at least for me anyways as it was the first time I filled out a bracket that way..its pretty cool though

                            I am in the 700s..get em next year..I think my final 4 teams are still alive..maybe..I will check now

                            I think if you get the final four teams and the winner..and one of them is not expected..you should get some $

                                yeah no kidding, it took me good 30 minutes before i had my rankings done. i did them then changed them around several times. what the heck its free money if you cash, i like different contests instead of the brackets like everyone else has

                                      Anybody familiar with the NBA contest ?

                                      25-0 or whatever seems impossible to win the 2k.

                                      so there is a consolation prize of $500, but a lot of ties.... I think there were 27 games.

                                      looks like $2500 max, so these 7 get $357, is this correct ?

                                          Climbed up to 46th through the conclusion of the early eight games...........survived.

                                          Would love to nail at least 6 of the 8 evening games.........in fact, it's a must to stay in contention..........really don't like my chances.

                                                I wish they would have the deal they had last year after the tournament. Do you remember it? If you landed on an even number and odd it was a bonus that you would receive on a deposit... It was the best deal ever!
