Ladies and Gent's,

I present to you a Bobcat Attack Bracket Challenge. I feel as a follower of this site (now member) I have never seen a bracket challenge occur. That said, I officially propose one for this group.

I offer as a grand prize to start this hopeful annual tradition: A 24 pack of Jackie O's or a night of shenanigans on Court Street with yours truly. If anyone has prizes they want to add in, please let me know. Figured this could become something for all of us involved.

Happy March Madness Everyone

How about two 3rd row tickets to a Fur Peace show? Not sure which one but I'm tentatively looking at May 21. One of the performers that night is Tim Reynolds, who was lead guitarist for Dave Mathews for many years.

Awesome. By "morning" - do you mean after 4:00 AM or so? And "juice" means???? :)

I might need to revisit my picks - I wanna win these.....

Updates from Round 1:

1st Place
Yours Truly (feel free to boo and hiss)
Tyler Perrino

3rd Place
9-Way Tie for 3rd.

Not a bad start at all to this. Been quite predictable so far.

Boo and Hiss...Or Congratulations, so far.

Thanks too.

Apparently I screwed something up as my bracket did not get entered into the Bobcat Attack Bracket Challenge. The name of my bracket is there but it has all zeros. The same bracket is in another group...Oh well, my bad. I will just monitor it and see how I do, just for fun. So far, I would be the 10th in the 3 way tie for 3rd.

I will allow it provided you can show us said evidence of this bracket being in another group. Of course, that may get my head floating down the Hocking with old_katz sending it up in flames.....

Thanks but not sure how to pull it off. I gave 460 points and I am ranked 2M;) on the ESPN challenge. I think that would remain a tie for 3rd on the BA Challenge. Depending on Duke and UCLA outcomes I am only missing Nova from seeet 16. This challenge keeps me from rooting for underdogs!

Who'd a thought the Final Four would be limited to the Carolinas and the Pacific Northwest?

I am still at 0 points. Of course my technology ineptness is the reason for that.😀

The bracket I have on ESPN that I failed to get entered into the challenge:
Total points now= 920
Possible Points Remaining = 480
Round of 64 260 of 320
Round of 32 220of 320
Sweet Sixteen200 of 320
Elite Eight 240 of 320
Final Four maximum possible 160 of 320
Championship maximum possible 320 of 320 as of now

Have UNC winning
I forfeit my opportunity at Bobcat Attack fame!
Such is life
