That's my championship game as well.

too bad I missed this contest (joined cag the same day). got a bracket on espn that's in the 99.1% (had Louisville beating Mich.St.). even though I'm a Duke fan I got Kentucky winning it all in this bracket ( .

You broke the one rule I have for the contest, which is to post here if your bracket name isn't your CAG name so that I know to whom it belongs.

You couldn't see my Yahoo User ID associated with it? It's the same name.

 

[FriskyTanuki]

You couldn't see my Yahoo User ID associated with it? It's the same name.

All I saw other than the bracket name is "Mitchy Mitch" and there are over 100 CAGs with "mitch" in their username, so there was no real ties to your username that I could find. I'd suggest posting here next year if you want to be absolutely sure.

year i pick duke   duke loses

Year i pick duke to lose in the 2nd round  duke wins it all  lol

 

[ygoloib]

year i pick duke duke loses
Year i pick duke to lose in the 2nd round duke wins it all lol

I realize that too. I picked duke to lose in 2010 (im also a duke fan) they win it all now I picked them to lose to Kentucky which seems like they could win it all again vs Wisconsin.

 

[Steggy]

FRANK THE TANK FRANK THE TANK! THIS IS OUR YEAR! MAKE THEM BOLIEVE!

Thank you Frisky for doing this. It's the first time I have tried a tournament bracket and it was a lot of fun. I appreciate it!

 

[toneroni]

Thanks for hosting - this was fun!

 

[pablo escobar]

Congrats Onikage

Thanks for putting this together Frisky

 

[onikage]

Thanks for running this every year. It may not be the case, but it feels like this is the first time I've finished outside the bottom half. I'll have to donate something next time.

 

[ctclements]

Woohoo I took 2nd!!!  Thanks for putting this together!

This was the first year I've done brackets, that was a lot of fun!

 

[onikage]

So how exactly does the distribution work?

 

[FriskyTanuki]

Apologies for the delay in contacting you guys. I've been a bit busier this week than I expected, but PMs have been sent out.

There is another secret "winner" in this year's contest for having the worst bracket in the entire pool. The "winner" of a new copy of MindJack for the Xbox 360 is GalanDun.

 

[Ransack]

Don't feel bad GalanDun, I went from dead last last year to 3rd this year.
