Hallgator 'Net NCAA Bracket Pool

Like the Gator game pick 'ems, I'm dedicating this to our fallen brother, Hallgator who was a mainstay as a poster/mod for many years. I've organized a bracket pool with 15 contestants. The brackets are online, but I'm starting this thread for bracket discussion. The pool involves no money, just for fun. Here are your 2023 Nuttin' but Net Bracketologists, along with their FF picks (champion in bold).

The two ????? are @missourigator and @g8wayg8r, but I don't know which is which (please let me know - thanks).

Edit: I think I have missouri and g8tway correct now.

 

I think there's as much parity this year as ever. It's gonna be a bunch of bruised and bandaid-laden brackets.

 

Everyone w at least two Ls already. I'll post the standings and pts round by round.

 

Princeton up 56-55 on AZ with 1:34 left. Upset alert!

 

Princeton at the line up one. Two shots and 21 seconds left

 

58-55

 

PRINCETON!

 

Well, that's one bracket busted . Sorry Dr Funke

 

No doubt. The best record among 15 bracketologists is 4-3. One of our folks is 1-6 (I won't mention any names). I'm sitting at an impressive 3-4.

 

Iowa has jumped back into the game w Auburn. Now a 4pt game w 4:40 left.
