So I'm in charge of the company office pool this year. We had 40 or so entries...one of the brackets looked like this:

Sweet Sixteen
1 Florida vs 4 Maryland
6 ND vs 2 Wisconsin

1 Kansas vs 4 S Illinois
6 Duke vs 2 UCLA

1 UNC vs 4 Texas
3 Wash St vs 2 Gtown

1 Ohio St vs 4 Virginia
3 TAMU vs 2 Memphis

Elite Eight
1 Florida vs 2 Wisconsin
1 Kansas vs 2 UCLA
1 UNC vs 2 Gtown
1 Ohio St vs 2 Memphis

Final Four
1 Florida vs 1 Kansas
1 UNC vs 1 Ohio St

He had UNC over Florida in the championship.

This guy picked exactly 6 games where the lower seed would win...and 1 upset (a 4+ seeding differential). with GW over Vandy He had 2 of the 6 seeds beating 3 seeds...but that was it. Yaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnnnn...

some ppl just pick seeds and never venture out and have fun with it and make it interesting. in my opinion thats y its gambling you have to take chances to get rewards

mine's a yawner as well...

but if you're in 2nd place with brackets like that, yawn all ya want...

I think the people aren't pickin' conservatively, they're just picking realistically...

there wouldn't be upsets if the other teams were supposed to win...
