First Round 10 points 1

Maximum Possible 1920 points

We aren’t offering any prizes, but maybe we’ll put the winner’s name on the sidebar … Enjoy!

maybe in the minority on this but got zero interest in March Madness, and pretty much hate college sports. college football especially is unwatchable..oh and they should all be paid for the money they generate.."getting an education", yeah sure..
