Bump... thought that there would be more chatter with two winningest men's college basketball teams meeting tonight. I agree with Coach Bill Self that "they don't play these games on paper". My swag-fueled desire favors UK.

Hope both teams play well and provide entertaining game. Tipoff is 8:23 Central.

Good luck Dyl, I need Kentucky to win my office pool. Would love to hand over the crown to a fellow bayou-stater!!!

Is there any swag left over for second place, or should I just be happy to see my name on the plaque for the alternates in the ladies' room?

Finally, winning bracket after numerous near-misses (and total flameouts) in past years. And, my first-time bracket playing wife, her new boss resides in North Carolina, won her contest versus co-workers. Hopefully, she will share some of her proceeds.

Thanks, Steve and fellow DTers for making this another fun event. Marking this one off my bucket list! Now, if I could just hit Kentucky Derby superfecta?
