Championship game:
Xavier-Siena: Saints survive a bullet wound and God strikes down the Musketeers. Siena is your Mascot Champion!

My only problem with your argument stems from this matchup - Rams have curved horns, a blunt instrument, not a sharp killing one. Bears are extremely fearsome when riled up, and their claws are pretty sharp. Not that I'm partial to UCLA or anything (:D), but I would have given the Bruins the edge here ... Although I suppose the muskets would have ultimately gotten the bears, anyway.

Bruin's a baby bear... not enough fight in it yet.

Any bracket that has Siena as champions is good in my book!

Phil may have too much time on his hands.....

I'm waiting for Cheerleader Match Up

Crap, Siena is screwed in that one.

They already played... no need for a bracket, Arizona State went undefeated through the final

A Wolverine weighs in at an average weight of 38.5lbs.
A Tiger weighs in at an average weight of 674lbs.

Advantage Tigers.

2,1,6,5,4,3

1,2

15,6,1,7,2,5,10,3,13,8,12,4,11,9,16,14

I agree with Matt's #16.

However, I have his #8 as my #1.

Math, I think in the first picture the one in the skimpy black lace is by far the hottest, I don't even see how that can be in question.

The only good thing about ASU

UCLA made a strong run in the cheerleading bracket :p
