Here we go! I will color code winners in Bold. Keep in mind that it's against the point spread, so even if you drew a crap team, you can still move on with the opponent if the opponent doesn't cover the point spread. Without further ado....

Please look it over. I'm pretty sure I have it right, but not above making mistakes.
Updated. I forgot to copy/paste everything after Hampton the first time. Sorry.
DTerp 1, JulesW 6, MMan 2, BBWC 2, AJ248 5, NBAJam 1, Don't Noonan 1, Comfortably Numb 5, Frosty 2, KOsbor 2, ChrLam 1, LerCor 3, TySt 5, MatHk 1, MQuinn 1, RSte 5, JPerr 2, Galileo 1, Johnny Bing 4, LOCO 1, JMon 2, Penguin 4, Dan Lambskin 1, DSmurf 2, Timmypg 1, SAtkns 1, JLux 2
The Concept:
Every entrant will have a team drawn for them randomly out of a hat (literally). Even if you draw the 16 seed, you have a chance to win the whole thing! Every winner will be decided by the point spread the day before the game. I will use odds.com and the Mirage lines. Example: Kentucky is favored by 12 but only beats UCONN by 8. The person who has UCONN in the pool would move on in the bracket but would now own Kentucky since Kentucky didn't cover the spread. This makes it fun for everyone (especially the underdogs) to cheer on the games. Everyone has action!
Last year several teams changed owners throughout the tournament. You can see how I tracked the tourney in this link:
I will be keeping track of the tournament withing the actual tournament bracket thread. Each entry will be $20.50. The $0.50 is my "take" for running this. I will make $32.
You can enter as many times as you like. I cannot guarantee an even spread of your teams across all 4 Regions as it is a blind draw.
Payouts will be $150 for Final 4, and additional $200 for each Championship game participant, and then $280 additionally to the winner!
Winner= $630
Runner Up= $350
Final 4 Losers= $150
This is a totally fun bracket and much better than a blind draw when you get the 16 seed and are out after the first game.
