The Bracket post-mortem

Well, it’s all over but the games. It’s always strangely satisfying to get to this point in the college basketball season. After poring over a ridiculous number of games, reading a mindless amount of statistics, and engaging in endless debates with fellow bracketologists, the announcement of the field provides a sense of closure. In past [...]

Final Bracket - Sunday Afternoon, March 16

No time for analysis. That will come later. The brackets are after the jump.

Penultimate Bracket - Sunday Morning, March 16

Well, we’re almost to the end. I’m posting this at 3:41 AM, and I take quite a bit of solace in knowing that 14 hours from now, it’ll all be over.
There’s always a danger during Championship Week that bracket-makers (including the Committee) will lose touch with reality. A team winning two or three nationally-televised games [...]

Bracket bracket — Saturday Morning, March 15

No time for analysis…just sweet, sweet brackets, after the jump.

Jonestown Massacre Bracket - Friday, March 14

Wow. Just…wow. I’ve seen days of brutality in college basketball that would test the wills of mere mortals, but Thursday the 13th truly was a unique experience.
Seemingly every bubble team with something to prove went out and laid an entire carton of eggs on the floor.  Mississippi, Florida, Villanova, Arizona State, Oregon, Massachusetts, Baylor, Dayton…the [...]

Bracketless Day! — Thursday, March 13

I was talking with Ink Jet about this earlier tonight, and it became very obvious that almost nothing of note had happened to change the bracket today — at least, nothing to warrant a brand new one. Let’s recap what occurred:
1) Syracuse absolutely and completely folded. Like a card [...]

Brackets for Sensitive People - Wed, March 12

For the first time since the bracketology process started in early February, I feel a bit of a calm coming over me. The 1 seeds and 2 seeds appear to be generally stable. The 3, 4, and 5 seeds are (for the most part) going to come from the same group of teams. And the [...]

Migraine Bracket - March 10

No time for in-depth analysis on this bracket, kids. Sorry. It’s late, and if I look at one of these Big East teams one more time, I’m gonna punch somebody.
Anyway, four regions, 65 teams. Let’s start in the East, after the jump.

Ugly America: Bracketology 03/02

March has arrived, but it sure as hell didn’t bring any real clarity to the bracket situation. Just as it looked as if we’d discovered three bona fide #1 seeds, two of them lost during the week, and the teams below them all pulled off important victories. Meanwhile, a couple of teams finally woke up [...]
